What Pens Are You Using Today?

[HBlaine]

Just one today. Haven't used the Visconti Wall Street for a while, so it got to be the office pen. Not much going on, as it's Friday. But...

[Bill Smith]

Today's pen is a MkI Midnight Blue Parker 51 inked up with the much feared and greatly misunderstood Noodlers Baystate Blue.

[Surfbits]

A used Parker 51 I just bought on eBay and several cheap Chinese pens like the Hero 392 and a Jinhao Black and Golden Cayman Mouth Fine Tip. But I have the Lamy Safari out and at the ready!

An original 1970s Aurora Thesis! I'm really excited because it's my graduation gift!!

Nakaya Heki Piccolo XF with Herbin Cafe des Iles. About to put it in my Nakaya Heki Ascending Dragon XXF.

 

Following Noodler's Golden Brown, with which I didn't get the shading I hoped for, but that's because I write too small. Nice not to have the ink smearing on every page of my journal and the nib creep like the Golden Brown - but wonder if I should learn to write larger to get the shading I'd like on that one. :hmm1:

 

Nice shading on the Cafe des Iles. Thinking of getting Herbin's Lie de The and Lierre Sauvage....

I love to read others' pen/ink combos Today, I'm using my Lamy 2000 (it's been in the pen case for months with little use) and PR Ebony Blue ink.

[bigstick]

Sure, it was the Hero 329, thoroughly rinsed and re-inked with J Herbin violet pensée.

[JRodriguez]

My fine nibbed OS Sheaffer Balance in Marine Green today filled with Waterman blue/black.

[bjcmatthews]

I use a Lamy 2000 and VP alternately. Occasionally i'll use a Safari or the Lamy Nexx M (whose writing quality is the same as the safari)

 

don't know if i should admit it here but i always have a pocket fisher space pen with me, ( i don't trust myself with always carrying fountain pens)

[Beechwood]

Elysee pen from the 80s

[marmontro]

Today, I´m using a red Parker 17 Super and an black with golden cap Eversharp Symphony mechanical pencil.

I'll be on the road for a week and I was supposed to bring my Nakaya Piccolo Writer but decided to bring my Montblanc Boheme Marron instead

[Surfbits]

Today I'm using my newly-arrived Parker 51 Forest Green Special Vac with PR Sherwood Green, (I love this Parker 51, my first!)

[Jeroboam]

Today I have been using;

A Waterman's 52 with semi flex nib and Herbins Vert Reseda.

And a Mabie Todd Swan, semi flex filled with Herbins Poussiere de Lune.

 

Toodle-pip!

[jean-charles]

Today,it's an Inoxcrom with Black Aurora...

The problem is, I don't know the name of the model...

[Gooch2k2]

I'm flying cheap today! Using my Platinum Preppy fine point that I converted to an eye dropper and filled with Noodler's Baystate Concord Grape! Really smooth writer for a $3 pen!
