[JerseyJim]

Right now, I have a a TWSBI 540 1.5mm inked with Noodeler's Pushkin, an Edison Morgan inked with Noodler's El Lawrence, a Pilot Custom 823 inked with Iroshizuku Tsuki-yo, a Lamy 2000 inked with Noodler's Air Corp Blue Black, and a Sailor Desk Pen inked with Noodler's La Reine Mauve. Oh, and a Noodler's Ahab in Creaper's Cobalt inked with Kung Te-Cheng for notes and such... That's just a great pen, and a great ink.

My non-bespoke TWSBI ROC100. Power to the people!:roflmho:

[Wikoster]

Using an inexpensive Bulow with Noodler's Heart of Darkness... just gave in to buying a TWSBI 540 Diamond with 1.1mm nib, SO EXCITED.

Here's what I'm using today.

[amarelarte]

Kaweco Green Ice Sport , Fine nib with Kaweco blue cart (needing to convert it to an ED).

Lamy aquamarine Safari, Fine nib with Lamy turquoise ink

[HT in NYC]

A rather wet writing Parker 51:

[PaulT00]

Stipula Modello T, orange/black ebonite, filled with Iroshizuku Fuyu-Gaki (a superb match for flow and lubrication, a good match for ink/pen colours, and great for marking up specification changes while doing a group review!);

Parker '51' Flighter, fine, loaded with Noodler's Der Eiserne Kanzler;

Lamy 2000, EF, filled with Rohrer & Klingner Alt-Goldgrün;

Stipula FPN LE Notte Di Stelle, 0,9 italic, inked with Iroshizuku Kon-Peki;

Stipula Suprema Nuda, Modello T titanium nib transplant, filled with Montblanc Racing Green.

 

I would say I'm turning into a Stipula nut like Wim, but even after the recent arrival of the FPN pens and a little supplementary spending spree, he still has 10 times as many as I do!

[reprieve]

Parker 51 black vac, fine nib, Herbin Poussière de Lune.

Parker 51 blue aero, BBB nib, Iroshizuku Ajisai.

[phrenzy]

Today I'm breaking out my newly arrived pair of GvF-C ivory anello classics. I got the rollerball and the FP with a medium nib. Unfortunately Im not sure what happened to the converter so for the time being I'm reduced t using carts. Luckily just the other da I invested in a pack of GvF-C schwarz hochfeine tinte cartridges. I really like the way they look, I wasn't sure I would and I mainly got them because it was a great deal but now that I'm using them in person I'm really impressed. Review in the works!

This week I'm using my Conway Stewart Celebration Coronet (eyedropper version) with italic fine nib and inked with Perle Noire ink. Always a winning formula for me.

 

But my hand is still twitching for the TWSBI 530 with 1.1 stub that I've been using continuously for the last three weeks...

Today, my new blue TWSBI 540 EF. I was nervous that an EF nib on it would have too much feedback for me as my fine ROC has quite a lot, but instead it is one of the smoothest nibs I own, which is the last thing I expected. I suspect I will be itching for this pen to be in my hands for months

[bigstick]

both the Duofold Jr (MBRG) and the Hero 329 (violet pensée) got a work-out today.
