Today I'm venturing into the Wide World and helping a friend remodel her "new" house. I'll be taking my Pelikan 0.5mm mechanical pencil (Pentel HB lead), my Parker 45 ballpoint, my Reform 1745 (Noodler's Liberty's Elysium) and my trusty Belknap "Bluegrass" hammer. :D

Pilot V-pen with purple ink.

Pelikano in red, with brown Cross ink.

Reform 1.1mm calligraphic piston-fill with Waterman black.

Stypen little wooden-bodied pen with brown Cross ink.

And a Kullock Parker 51 aerometric demonstrator with Waterman Harmonious Green Ink.

 

A nice mix of cheap and not so cheap!

Too many pens, too little time!

Today's pens: Conway-Stewart No. 475 with Private Reserve Tanzanite; Reform 1745 with Noodler's Liberty's Elysium. The C-S arrived the other day, it's a delight to hold and with which to write. The nib has some flex, which my lovely wife can make dance, I am far from adept with flex. It makes me write more slowly, simply because I don't want to put it down.

Fountain pens are my preferred COLOR DELIVERY SYSTEM (in part because crayons melt in Las Vegas).

Create a Ghostly Avatar and I'll send you a letter. Check out some Ink comparisons: The Great PPS Comparison 

Don't know where to start?  Look at the Inky Topics O'day.  Then, see inks sorted by color: Blue Purple Brown Red Green Dark Green Orange Black Pinks Yellows Blue-Blacks Grey/Gray UVInks Turquoise/Teal MURKY

MB 144

Pelikan 400 DEF

All that is gold does not glitter, Not all those who wander are lost; The old that is strong does not wither, Deep roots are not reached by the frost.
