In addition to my 149 (now with Quink BB), I'm using a 1970s Sheaffer school pen inked up with Sheaffer Brown ink. Just got it in the mail from ebay for $3.

 

I couldn't resist the pen as it's the same model as the first FP I ever used. So its been a bit of a trip down memory lane today.

Today, the Waterman Sérénité and the Pelikan Place de la Concorde. A really French day

 

The Place de la Concorde is my most "uplifting" pen, and the Sérénité by far the most comfortable.

Five pens are inked:

 

Dani Trio Mikado-size Matte Ebonite with stub nib, filled with Noodler's Blue Black. A definitive winner.

 

Omas Ogiva (full size) burgundy with medium nib, filled with Noodler's Sawaro Wine. This is such a smooth experience...

 

Pelikan M200 Anthracite, stub nib by Pendemonium with back Quink. Excellent!

 

Sheaffer Imperial in Cadmium Yellow, with fine nib and 1/2 Montblanc red + 1/2 Sheaffer King's Gold. Yes, I am proofreading papers these days!

 

Pilot VP with Pendemonium's stub nib and Noodler's Standard Brown. Lovely!

 

I must add that I am extremely happy with the nibs I bought from Pendemonium. They turned pens that rarely entered my rotation in all time favorites.

Today I took two oldies but goodies - a black Sheaffer Imperial Touchdown with a springy (almost semi flex) wet medium nib, and my trusty Parker 75.

Hey great minds think alike!

 

I ended up using my new (to me) cisele Parker 75 filled with Waterman Blue and a copper-finished, stub-nibbed Sheaffer Legacy 2 that was filled with PR Copper Burst. I also ended up doodling with my black Sheaffer Intrigue with a great stub nib.

 

Any day is made better by writing with a good pen...

The Legacy 2 combo sounds fantastic. Glad to hear you picked up a cisele 75. I can't say enough about how much I like that pen. I thought I'd never like a small pen until I started carrying it around.

[Apollo]

Today, I'm using 3 pens:

 

Parker "51" Vacumatic (cedar blue with sterling silver cap) with Parker Quink Blue Black

Parker "51" Special (burgundy) with Waterman Florida Blue

Parker "51" Vacumatic (dove grey) with Noodlers Zhivago

[Slush99]

Today it's the same Balium Core. Happens to be the only pen I was using today. Of course, it's filled with PR Shoreline Gold.

A Cross 150 year anniversary sterling silver.

Today, I am using a Reform medium nib filled with Noodlers La Colour Royale. It is a good pen to take during out door activities.

[southpaw]

[Dvenosa]

Today I was carrying a Parker 21(1/2 blue black skrip 1/2 black waterman) and a Lamy Vista with blue cartridges( that FADE!).

 

When I go to something elegant( a small party, a café..) I use a Pelikan 400 ( with parker washable royal blue super quink) and a Parker "51"vac demi( with waterman black)
