In the rotation today is my recently acquired (on FPN) 1950s Black Geha Schulfüller with a Fine gold plated steel nib.

Don't usually like Fine nibs but this one is pleasant so far.

Filled with Diamine Midnight.

Today's pen is a black UK made Mk Parker 51 with a rolled silver cap inked up with Diamine Presidential Blue.

Playing with my cheap-and-wonderful Parker Jotter & Vector fountain pens. Can't beat 'em for the value and the nice, thick lines! I love my medium nibs. I think the ink is either PR's Velvet Black or Noodler's Borealis Black. Smooth!!

Just received yet another shipment from Goulet Pens. This one contained a Pelikan Script 1.5 calligraphy pen. Inked it up with Noodler's Kung Te-cheng and WOW...

 

1. What an amazing ink. Gorgeous color!

2. I can't believe how much a wide nib improved my penmanship! Amazing. My hand writing is actually readable. Who knew a wide nib would help so much!
