A few years ago I bought a Parker 21, it was new old stock but the nib was a mess, bent more than a gay rubber gymnast, I took the nib out and fitted a very large Bock nib in Fine, almost looks like a Parker 95.

 

That is going to be used for the first time along with a Cross Verve Merlot with a Broad nib. also never been used.

 

But if someone says I want the droit de seigneur then I can always be persuaded.

I will be using my new Pilot Metropolitan while visiting my friend. We visited Honolulu Pen Shop while in Hawaii and she was so inspired being there, she bought one also. She has never used a fountain pen before and I will be showing her how to put in the cartridge, how to use the converter, etc. It is an amazing pen for the low price ($15). Fun!!!

A wonderful gentleman from church came up to me a few weeks ago and handed me a pen and pencil set that he had bought and used in high school back in the 50's. It was a green Arnold Pen set and looked pretty rough. He knew I used fountain pens and wanted me to have them. After some TLC and restoration efforts the pen and pencil are up and running and I am writing with them today. Before and after photos below:

Nice pens, I scored a UK Duofold Junior like that years ago, I eventually gave it to a very young colleague who wanted a fountain pen but with the costs of setting up practice he was going to wait about 12 months. Like yours, it is in good hands, but I think I would keep Arnie.

Still using my Lamy Nexx with a LH nib now filled with Visconti Black & a Schneider Base FP also with a LH nib and filled with Diamine Royal Blue. I'm on a LH nib kick at the moment.
