[Format]

A Burnham 46 bought for £5 at the last London Show, about $8. The pen needed a polish and a smoothing of the nib but its a great pen, perfect flow smooth and fine nib, a pleasure to use.

I'm done moving but haven't inked any other pen but the only one inked for the last month, a Special Edition Lamy all-black Al-Star inked with Sailor Kiwa Guro. This is the best combo ever. I haven't been in a real rush to ink anything else. I've ground the nib into a cursive italic of around .5mm and I'm writing in a Stillman & Birn A4 Epsilon journal using a "reverse Honnecourt" format with the wide margins on the inside rather than outside. Doing this just because the broad gutter allows me to scan the pages on a flatbed scanner without cutting anything off...
