Mont Blanc 149 medium nib filled with Noodler's Blue. I took this one out of the pen case last week, not having used it for a couple of years. Nice to get re-acquainted . . .

You can't pry the Omas 360 Bronze Vision with Mottishaw Cursive Italic out of my hand. (no afil.)

What else do we have in life if not to help each other?

A rotating daily carry: Lamy Studio stainless finish, steel nib, F, cartridge installed w/Lamy washable blue ink.

 

Fine is closer to my idea of an M but it writes smoothly on most all paper, starts quickly and is quite durable for an inexpensive pen. I like the 28 gm weight and generally hefty feel.

 

 

Guess I'm "affiliated" since I have several of the various Lamy models. thumbup.gif

I always get a kick out of these "no affiliation" notations when it's blatantly obvious the poster has absolutely nothing to do with the brand, company, etc. beyond being a customer. It must be a feel-good/feel-important thing. So I'll note up front that nothing I write here on this forum is influenced by any financial-gain motivation.

I'm still thoroughly enjoying daily my yellow Pelikan M200 with the two tone M400 nib that started life as a broad nib before Mr. Binder changed it to an oblique stub italic. :notworthy1: And ink is Noodler's Lermontov :cloud9:

I've mostly been using my Pelikan M1050 M filled with Rohrer & Klingner Salix today. This pen and this ink seem to get along really well.

Lamy 2000 M nib ; one line its smooth, wet, effortless writing and the other line it skips (very narrow sweet spot on this pen apparently) .

Just finished writing a birthday card using a Pelikan Golf with a customized M Cursive Italic. Inked with Iroshizuku Shin-ryoku Deep Forest Green.

It must be a feel-good/feel-important thing. So I'll note up front that nothing I write here on this forum is influenced by any financial-gain motivation.
