A Duofold Centennial, just fitted with a recently purchased fine Italic nib - a real delight to use :P

Makes me really look forward to the Italic M800 Pelikan will soon offer :thumbup:

today I'm having trouble deciding, but have just this moment settled on the DuoFold Jr fine, inked with Skrip black (because it is nearest to hand.) This one's a bit of a dry starter, but carries extremely well.

Pelikan 120 : Lamy 2000 : Sheaffer PFM III : Parker DuoFold Jr : Hero 239 : Pilot Vanishing Point : Danitrio Cum Laude : Esterbrook LJ : Waterman's 12 and an unknown lever-filler : Lambert Drop-fill : Conway Stewart 388

Today's pen is a late 1970s Parker 75 Cisele with a fine nib inked up with PR Midnight Blues fast dry ink.

I am using my Watermans 3V. Notice the cap. I need a new cap or the piece on top. I made this piece and glued it on to give it a somewhat complete look. Flexile nib writes nicely.

An orange and black Reynolds cartridge pen that I bought this afternoon from a discount store in Derby. I converted it to an eyedropper earlier today.

 

Several other Reynolds cartridge pens that I bought from the same store a £0.50p each in different colours.

 

A Guinness promotional cartridge pen by Spanish penmaker Inoxcrom which I bought again from the same store at the same price.

 

And the best thing is that the writing quality of most of these pens has left me wondering why I sould ever buy expensive pens.

Using my beautiful Green Esterbrook J nib #9668 with Noodler's Forest Green ink

Taking notes for the Sunday School lesson. Green great color symbolizing growth, renewal, life.

 

Everyday, always for me it is one of my beautiful Esties, J or SJ or LJ green, blue, red, copper, gray or black. I am a fiercely loyal person, constant in my affection, not easily led elsewhere, already having found something so perfect.

Trying to rescue and restore all the beautiful Esties to their purpose.
