[mongrelnomad]

Packing for a two day trip to London.

 

Taking these with me.

 

 

L-R:

 

Omas Miku EF, Iroshizuku Asa-Gao

Montblanc 146 Oxonian stub M - Montblanc Irish Green

Conway Stewart Wellington EF - Sailor Jentle Red-Brown

[georges zaslavsky]

1979 mb 149 with mb green british racing

Conway Stewart Churchill, with a wonderfully juicy Broad Italic nib. Mmmmmmmm.

Just got a Retro 51 Tornado Lava Flow yesterday-fantastic but uses ink like crazy

Lamy logo filled with Lamy Turquoise ink for everything other than journal writing, works great on nice paper, smooth with F nib

[rhall_8]

In one journal, a Waterman Charleston with a Waterman blue cartridge. In the other journal, black Pelikan M200 with Private Reserve Ebony Purple. I love the smell of the Ebony Purple (is that weird?).

[Pippin60]

Sheaffer Imperial III XF and Bexley 2010 stub.

[HDoug]

Same Pelikan M605 I've been using for weeks and weeks. But I started a new Kunst & Papier A4 "sketchbook" that I use as a journal. The very first and very last pages have a laid texture. The rest are smooth...

Pilot custom 823 demo with CI by John Mottishaw Akkerman Bezuidenwoudgroen

[camoandconcrete]

Today is a Schrade 3rd Gen Tactical fountain pen with Levenger's Regal ink.

 

That looks a lot like Sütterlin. But I could be wrong.

[Ipno Tizer]

A good ol' Parker Vector filled with Caran Dd'Ache old black.

CS100 with Waterman black.

[jslallar]

I keep cjhanging pens, but today I have a pair of waterman's inked with Pelikan Turquoise, an Expert I Navy Blue with GT and two tone Steel M nib, and Expert II Black with GT and two tone steel M nib. Both smooth writers and my favourites (among many others) especially for balance and weight.

Sheaffer Snorkel

[radellaf]

I'm marinating my snorkel's nib in hopes I can use it without needing repair.

 

In pocket are a Pelikan M150 with a hard-won XF nib (they're rare for some reason lately) and Noodler's Black.

For fun is a Pilot Prera In F with Shah's Rose.

With me the past two days was a 78G with a .9 italic from a Plumix swapped in and an _old_ lamy blue cartrige. Old enough 20-40% of the ink volume had evaporated.

I'm playing with my new arrival - a Pilot Custom 742 with Falcon nib. It is so ..... DIVINE! I am using a Pilot Blue cartridge, a color which has never wowed me before. But it's pretty nice in this pen. Now my Namiki Falcon with Soft Fine nib feels like a nail in comparison!

[HBlaine]

Scribbling notes to myself this dark evening with a trio of MB's.

 

1980s MB 149 with a fairly soft medium nib, using MB Blue-Black

 

Schiller WE with a custom stub, using Diamine Imperial Blue

 

Faulkner WE with a broad nib, using Diamine Ultra Green

 

Not the best picture, but kinda dark and atmospheric, nonetheless...
