It's Sunday! I am using my beautiful Esterbrook red J with Diamine Sherwood Green. This is a lovely ink, very well behaved. LisaN, most kindly, sent me a sample with an Esterbrook Dollar pen and pencil set that I purchased from her. I like the hue of this dark green/blue ink, so much that I have already ordered a bottle and will most likely make it an every day ink.

Today's pen is a grey thatch pattern vintage Conway Stewart 58 with a medium nib inked up with Diamine Imperial Purple.

Overkill? Probably! But who cares? :rolleyes: :roflmho:

This week, it's my Jinhao Great Wall, inked with Waterman Black. Every Jinhao I have ever used has had a very smooth nib with absolutely no tweaking.

Love all, trust a few, do wrong to none.

Tombow Ultra Burgundy roller pen. Awesome. Ink is same as fountain pen, wet and what is better than fountain pen, the ink is waterproof and smudge proof. Love this pen. The best rollerball ever. Any Tombow Ultra series (may be called zoom 505) are great. Not even Noodler's bulletproof ink which always smudges with a wet finger, beats it.

I'm excited that besides my old stand-by Pelikan Technixx I got 2 new pens in the mail this afternoon - a lamy 2k with a broad (very broad) nib that rights very smooth and another TWSBI to replace the one my wife is using (full time now).

My Waterman Charleston with Pelikan Edelstein Sapphire ink and my Pelikan M&K 120 with Pelikan 4001 Brilliant Black are both going to work with me. Just got the 120 nib back from Richard Binder and I love the way it writes!

Today I'm carrying my Lamy Safari with Parquer Quink Blue-Black and at home, my Sheaffer Craftsman Touchdown with Sheaffer Skrip Blue, Slovenian.

 

I'm still waiting for my Duke Charlie Chaplin which is held up by Customs at Vancouver since November 9th... Arghhh...

 

Next inking will be my Prelude with Noodler.s Air-Corps Blue-Black (currently my favorite ink). I'm also waiting for a 4 oz bottle of vintage Quink V-Mail Black.

 

Oh the wait is killing me....
