Today, in addition to the "51", my Piquadro holds an early narrow-band black lacquer Parker Sonnet. I took this pen in trade from a client, and I replaced its steel nib with an 18K oblique BB that I reground to straighten it. This thing turns out to be a dandy pen for signing thermal credit-card receipts. I do have to warn the clerks, cos it's more than a little on the wet side...

Richard, I have a black lacquered, gold furniture Sonnet that you modified into a smooth stub nib. It's one of my all-time favorite pens. :)

 

Today, though, is a Pelikan day. My black m215 with a medium italic nib is filled with Waterman Florida Blue. Using a great pen with your favorite ink is a great way to brighten up a crazy work day. :)

M.B. 149 with some newly aquired Noodlers luxury blue ink....

 

Bulletproof eh ! ..... well thats as may be. Acid resisting ....... ok... Nuclear Blast will just have no effect on good old super Noodlers..

 

WHAT ABOUT NOT SMUDGING WHEN GETTING THE ODD SPLASH OF WATER ON IT THEN !!!!!!! :unsure:

Some of the Noodler's are absolutely resistant to any smudging with some water, and some have a component that will wash off and a bulletproof component that will not.

 

I gather Luxury Blue is in the latter category?

Isn't sanity really a one-trick pony, anyway? I mean, all you get is one trick, rational thinking! But when you're good and crazy . . . ooh hoo hoo hoo! . . . the sky's the limit!

Today I'm using:

 

Pelikan m200 (Black), Binder 0.6mm stub (Diamine Prussian Blue)

Pelikan m200 (Green Marble), F nib (Private Reserve Sherwood Green)

Parker 51 Aero (Black), M nib (Noodler's Legal Lapis)

 

The PR is a beautiful, very Christmas-y green. Currently on sale at isellpens, FYI (no affiliation, just a satisfied re-re-repeat customer). I'm also very pleased the sale at Pear Tree Pens introduced me to Diamine inks: the Prussian Blue is the "softest" looking dark blue I've used yet (don't know how else to describe it).

happiness isn't caused

Nice! We all started off with one, you know. ;)

1) Parker 51 Broad Nib with Noodler's Cayenne for marking

2) Parker 51 Fine Nib with Burple for organizing

3) Parker 45 Medium Nib with FPN Galileo Manuscript for writing other things

 

Feeling the need to join the Lamy club, might go for a Safari or Vista from TWD as a present for myself this Christmas. I will, of course, also be buying some new ink!
