What Pens Are You Using Today?

[jean-charles]

Today, in my pocket, an Omas S2001 silver, with Montegrappa Turquoise ink...

 

Nice combination !

 

Well I think so anyway...

Today's the day for revisiting some old Parker Vectors

My new-to-me LAMY 22 AL-Star coffee-brown, broad steel nib with Waterman's havana-brown ink.

[Elusive Appellation]

A Parker 51 aerometric filled with Stipula's Verde Muschiato.

[pavoni]

Parker Super 21, steel fine nib and a Parker 51, 14c medium nib, both carrying Parker blue ink. Gosh these are reliable.

I've used three different fountain pens today:

 

1) Lamy Safari

2) Shaeffer "school pen"

3) a dip pen with Nikko G nib

My just-completed Penbash Mk.2. This one made from a Pirre Paul Wood, instead of a Pelikano. Much more elegant than the first one. And no need to worry about making paint stick to it.

I'm using my newly acquired, vintage 1970's Mont Blanc 149, medium nib, inked with MB Irish Green!

Pilot Super 300G

 

Any info about it would be great

I'm grading Pharmacy exams. It is a much more pleasant experience because I am using my wonderful PENguin pen with a cursive italic Pelikan nib (see http://www.thepenguinpen.com/penguin/penguin.html), filled with Diamine Monaco Red.

I received my Danitrio Tamenuri Mikado from Kevin a few days ago and I haven't wanted to write with anything else since. The pen, as many of you know, is enormous and yet it is light and shaped so that it fits into my fairly small hand beautifully. The nib is a "soft" fine. I've filled it with Noodlers Red Black (which approximates the color of the pen). I am an over the top left hander and the ink flow is such that I find no problem with smudging even using some pretty slick Clairefontaine paper.

 

I chose the clipless version since the pen really is too big to fit comfortably in a shirt pocket. The only marking on the pen (other than on the two-tone 18k gold nib) is the signature in Kongi of the artist in gold color on the section.

 

Maybe in time I'll tire of using it, but I wouldn't bet that way.

 

Now the question is what to do with the other 200 pens in my collection.

 

Since this is my first post, I'm not sure the image will show up. If it does, you should note that it is Kevin Cheng's, not mine.

That is ONE ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL pen.... :puddle: :puddle:

Today I've got both my MB149 and Parker 51 freshly inked and ready to go!

Hello, I recently found a Hero pen and the well isn't woring in it. I've tried sucking up the ink into the pen but it's not working. I've tried taking the well out, to convert it to ink cartridges, but it is glued or stuck on. Do you have any advice for me. I do not know the model. it is a slim black pen that says Hero and on the reverse it says 70. Please any help would be greatly appreciated...Kate
