Wow! Lovely pen, ink, and handwriting. As a new guy, I must that that your picture is very inspiring.

I was doing inventory today at work. I started with my medium nib brown pilot Prera full of Bad Belted Kingfisher, but is was drying up on me so I switched to my blue Fine nib Parker 21 MKII full of Pelikan blue-black.

My wonderful Sheaffer 330 with a fine nib and Sheaffer Skrip Blue-Black.

I have the pleasure of using a '46 Vacumatic that I picked up at the LA show this past weekend.

[TMac]

In the office, I'm using a Visconti Rembrandt with Noodlers Zhivago and a Pilot VP with Levenger Cobalt Blue.

 

At home, my Monteverde Prima is loaded with Diamine Maroon and my Rosetta Magellan is filled with Private Reserve Burgundy Mist.

This week I am using my slate grey Pilot Vanishing Point, with medium nib, with Pilot/Namiki Blue.

[pavoni]

My very pleasant to write with, bright red Platinum President, with a medium (wet) nib, carrying Waterman bleu-noir ink, partnered by a MB 163 Rollerball.

[French]

Namiki Bamboo black with rose gold clip, rhodium plated 14k extra fine nib (filled with Pilot Iroshizuku Asa Gao ink)

vintage Platinum 3776 ribbed (black) 14k extra fine nib (recently adjusted by me for better ink flow - now about a 6-7 out of 10 wetness) filled with Noodler's Legal Lapis ink

I'm pretty excited about the Platinum, it was a pen that I was considering putting up on the marketplace because the low flow was driving me crazy. However, now I'm loving it! A simple nib floss to spread the tines a tiny bit, a slight increase in the space between the feed and nib. Now I have writing bliss.

Received yesterday and in use this morning: two Lamy Safaris, one medium and one fine. Nice feel when writing with these, but they're not at all attractive to my eyes. Also very light, utterly useless if I need to club an intruder to death...

 

Also a Monteverde Invincia, a heftier weapon, loaded with Diamine Teal ink.

[raffaele]

Today...an hard work with two mb 146 filled with Visconti blue and diamine red passion. But the 149 is waiting.....

My brand new Wality eyedropper filled with J. Herbin Lierre Sauvage.

Today I have grant meetings so that means dress shirt with a shallow pocket, so I am going with a ?teal? blue and lustraloy capped "51" Demi with xfine nib full of Platinum Blue-Black (much lighter and blue than I expected!) and a blue Pilot Pockel gel pen as a loaner.
