Seeing as how I rendered my Danitrio Komori's useless (Hi! I'm a Nubmeister!) yesterday (instead of going to the gym -- let this be a lesson to me), I'm now using the Bexley Simplicity with a steel F nib (it is fabulous) with Noodler's Black.

 

The other pens in rotation today are:

 

Cross Classic Century (XF) w/Miyako's Blues Mix

Danitrio Fellowship (F) w/Noodler's Cayenne

Montblanc Thomas Mann (F) w/Noodler's Old Manhattan Blackety-Black Black

Nakaya Piccolo Cigar (M) w/Sailor Blue Black

Sailor 1911 (EF) w/ Iroshizuku Fuyu-syogun

Visconti van Gogh Midi (EF) w/Montblanc Raing Green

Stipula Vedo (F) w/Sailor Blue Black

Oh no! What did you do to your poor Komori?

 

I'm sure we can fix the pen. Besides, the road to being a nibmeister is paved with broken pens. Scratch that. That's not very reassuring.

Your Avatar reminds me of Mykonos. My wife and I was there about 20 years ago. Greek dark honey and full cream yoghurt for breakfast and ouzo and octopus for lunch. We stayed in Pegasus bay. I’d be back there tomorrow if I could. Went on to Samos then Turkey. Great trip.

My signature is nothing original. Do you know where it is from. My mother got me into "him" when I was in my teens. Learnt 6 or so and have never forgotten them. I'm now 58. Funny how the good stuff in life sticks.

Using my Montblanc 149 with O3B nib for serious writing today.

And how can this be, because he is the Kwisatz Haderach.

Inked the NOS Montegrappa Cortina with Visconti Black. Needs a little more running in I hope. Interesting fill action on the Cortina??!!?? Nice to write with what feels like a $2 cheapo.

 

Removed the horrid Parker Quink Blue from the Classic 626 Sandblast and filled it with V Back too. My darkest moment has arrived. Writely or wrongly.

Using a recently arrived M1000 with OM nib filled with Diamine Midnight blue.

Is it true you can only write after midnight with this ink incharge?

Today I'm writing with the Hellmaster Decapifier loaded with Grecian Formula 12 Day-Old Coffee. It's nothing to write home about, but it's good enough for medical research.

 

I may alternate with my Cross Affinity, although I don't really see what's opalescent about black.

Today I am being boring and have been using my P51 filled with blue Quink with solv-x. Nothing flamboyant today I'm afraid.

Cordialement.

Using a black striped celluloid Pelikan 300 today. Not a M300, a 300 (big brother to the 140). Black striped. Gorgeous. :cloud9:

 

(Ink is Waterman Blue - I'm writing it out so I can flush and swap inks...)

Forgot to mention last night I filled a Classic 626 Sandblast with Noodlers Walnut. It has to be the darkest brown I could imaginge. In some light it looks just plain black. I need to use it some more to appreciate it.

Out and about today with my Montblanc 146 BB nib and Montblanc black ink. I have a set of these FP, RB, BP in a 3 pen pouch for when out to cover any writing eventually.

And how can this be, because he is the Kwisatz Haderach.
