TWSBI 540 Diamond, F nib, Caran d'Ache Sunset

Stuipula Passaporto, 1.1 nib, Pilot Iroshizuku Tsuki-yo

Kaweco ART Sport Füllhalter Amecitrin, M nib, Noodler's Tchaikovsky

Just got home after a 8.00am to 11.30 pm stretch, probably the same today, as s Lamyesterda. 2000 and Ciselle Sonnet again. I like the Ciselle Sonnet Premier. The silver gives it agood weight and it is excellent for the shirt pocket.

Lamy Dialog 3 F - Diamine Steel Blue

Lamy Safari 1.1 Italic - 1 part water : 5 parts noodlers blue eel (dries significantly quicker)

Today is a Parker day. I'm field testing a Parker 45 flighter before gifting it to my brother. It will be his first fountain pen.

[Tom Aquinas]

Just a ciselle Sonnet, well it was unril I read Paolino's post . I found a good condition old Burgandy/Gold Filled cap P45, (judging from the filler about35 years old) in a charity shop for $A3.50 (and aP51 for the same price ) that is at work in the top drawer. I;ll take the P45 as well, they are a good pen, and a very good first pen.

Today I am using a new to me late 1920s orange Parker Duofold. The nib is a smooth fine, but seems starved for ink. The pen ia in amazing condition.

[Tom Aquinas]

My usual for these days my two sterling silver Sonnets, a P51, and my 1917 gold filled vintage Swan is out for its' annual run.
