I've just filled it with its first taste of bottled ink, so today has been almost exclusively my Parker Frontier (with blue Quink).

 

Oddly, I could swear blind that the ink from the bottle is a darker shade than the supposedly identical ink in the cartridge I took out!

[QuantumMisa]

Pelikan M215, as soon as I can figure out what ink to put in it.

If it's a non-black ink, then also the Aurora Optima, as soon as I can figure out which black to put in it.

[plmadding]

Well there are several pens I use frequently for all different situations.

 

1) Ultra- an old cheap Italian pen with a fine nib. It really is a fantastic writing pen! Especially for the $10 I paid for it!!

2) Lamy Safari with a fine nib. A pen I take along when I really need it to work 100%.

3) Waterman Phileas- The pen that sits in my shirt pocket and looks fantastic there, and also writes and looks wonderful when I need to sign something.

4) Noodler's Creaper Flex Nib- A fun pen (my first flex nib) however, I usually can't quite manage to go a day without getting ink all over my hands.

Today is the first time using my MB WE Thomas Mann with intent. I really enjoyed writing to a very dear friend with this wonderful pen, using MB Irish Green ink through a medium nib on Clairfontaine paper. This is the very reason I bought such a pen.

 

Pavoni.

TWSBI Diamond 530 filled with iroshizuko asa-gao

[HDoug]

Pelikan M605 -- with a new nib! I damaged the previous Binder .5mm cursive italic and ordered another one. This photo is a deception. The writing was done with an M215 with another Binder .5mm cursive italic. I can never get nib shots because I use Noodler's bulletproof inks which make all my nibs look like kindergarten Christmas ornament projects. Which I don't mind but make for bad nib shots. So I figured I'd take a photo BEFORE putting any ink in.

[Ipno Tizer]

Probably my Esterbrook J with an Esterbrook 2668 nib.

 

Yesterday, I fitted a 2550 nib unit to my Estergrook SJ but it's too fine and scratchy. So I'm looking into a 3556 or a 9556 to replace it.
