Lately I've used these pens...

Monte Grappa Sterling 300 BP - heavy comfortable pen

Fisher Mat Black Cap-O-Matic BP - I love these pens! Cheap, write well and fit easily into most shirt pockets

Michael's Fat Boy Blue Comet BP - Using the Itoya gel ink refill - smooth and effortless

Parker Duofold M nib FP with Pelikan Royal Blue ink

Aurora Ipsilon Deluxe Blue/Gold M nib with Aurora Black ink

Inspired by Ondina's review of Pelikan Blue-black ink, I loaded up my garden-hose Peli Junior with it.

 

What a nice denim color! I'm trying now to remember which pens 'take' to which inks. This seems a natural combo.

My latest ebook.   And not just for Halloween!
 

My other pen is a Montblanc.

I brought my Rotring 700 to work filled with Noodler's Black-- kept clogging on me. Need to pull out the loupe to see whether it is a nib issue or an ink issue. I hate it when my pens flake out! Doesn't happen often, thankfully.

It's been a while since my last FP purchased. Was put off for a while after the Watermans that I gave my wife and bought for myself wore out very badly, broke their clips and suffered lots of chipping on the surface. Only one of them survives today and is without a clip but writes beautifully.

 

The Waterman and my Parker rollerball (M) are my main pens and I guess I tend to need robust FPs because I do use them often and carry them around with me all the time. For me, they are meant to be very functional instruments and I do everything with them including sketching out ideas, doodling, writing, signing important contracts etc.

 

Just picked up 2 pairs of Knight (FP and Rollerball) sets for my wife and I a few days ago in Singapore. Bought an Orange Lamy Safari for my daughter to encourage her to care about how she writes (terrible handwriting) and to develop penmanship.

 

Then the bug bit and we went down around midnight to Mustapha to pick up a Hero and Pilot Tank and I picked out a Lamy Safari (charcoal) for myself along with some ink.

 

I am on the verge of ordering a Lamy 2000 online.

 

I found this forum while researching about pens to buy.

Using my White Sailor Sapporo. Received it recently and while it's a little smaller than I imagined it would be, its a great purchase and I'm quite happy with the blue Sailor ink as well.
