What Pens Are You Using Today?

[Tennessee Dave]

I finally got my inks and inked up my Edison Nouveau Premiere Limited Edition. This pen has a medium nib and was inked with Daimine's Amazing Amethyst. It writes beautifully. I could not be more pleased with my first fountain pen.

[Tom Aquinas]

Well, I recieved a few pens in the mail this weekend and a few from repair and also I work on a few:

 

Stipula Saturno Olive Woodgrain color W/1.1 Stub Nib

Aurora Optima Burgandy Red W/Broad nib (I worked on this nib for a few hours on Saturday) It was once a toothy nib now it is a smooth Juicy Broad nib!!! Patience and persistance Pays off!!

Lamy 2000 W/Broad Nib Thanks Kurt!! This is a fantastic Pen with a wonderfully smooth nib. Why did I wait so long to buy a Lamy 2000?

Visconti Copernicus Black&Blue celluloid striped W/Medium nib

Stipula Etruria Ocean Blue W/1.3 Stub Nib

The same as yesterday, my Sailor 1911, and good old reliable Lamy 2000. Tomorrow I have a "fighting" day so i will take something very special. A 1940's Onoto which was used by one of the column commanders in the first big Chindit raid in WW2. I will also take my Lamy 2000 and Parker Duofold all with Parker Quink Blue/Black.

Just received my Cross Verve - I guess it's Merlot although the description called it brown crocodile and it looks brown. Haven't inked it yet.

 

Till then am using my TWSBI Diamond 530 clear with EF nib and Kung Te-Cheng (Noodler's) ink.

Also a Kaweco Sport fine point with a cartridge.

It was a big day and successful. The 70 year old Onoto used by one of Maj Gen Orde Wingate's column commanders in the first big raid across the Chindwin River gave inspitation. It is archived again with the same gentleman's GP propelling pencil. By my side now is my Caran'd Ache 55 Ecridor with 14ct nib loaded with Blue/Black Quink, and my Omas Ogival with wareman South Seas Blue for signing correspondence. The Omas is a delightful instrument.

I used a Waterman C/F today filled with Waterman black ink. Tomorrow I will use my usual office pen: Lamy 2000 with a medium nib and the same ink.

[Tom Aquinas]

Today is a working day well and truly, so I will be using my usual office pen, the redoubtable Lamy 2000 and my trusty old Parker Stg Sil Sonnet premier both loaded with Parker Blue/Black Quink. I had a look at the new Premier, I think it holds well but the cap clip is weak.

It's Saturday--Ugly Stick with 20 pound test line (green and lime combo)--using squid and 2 oz. Sinker

Today it's my black and gold Waterman Carene F with Iro Kon-Peki.

[Tom Aquinas]

Today, I had to sign a couple of submissions , heavy stuff, so it was my old Mont Blanc "Noblesse", platinum plated silver with Parker Blue / Black ink. I have always liked Quink, probaly because my late dad used it. Tomorrow my Lamy 2000 and Parker Sonnet Premier.
