Pretty boring start to the week using my Pilot Metropolitan with a blue Pilot cartridge. My other pens ended up at home for the weekend.

Guider large ebonite, Noodler's Sahara Ebonite, Parker 45, in black and silver with gold trim, and Pelikan m205 highlighter, in yellow...

 

It is normal to carry 4 pens right?

 

And use an Esterbrook Desk set...

Got my Metropolitan inked with Tsuki-yo (because, obsession.), my Cross Aventura with a black cartridge, and my Lamy Safari cleared customs this morning, and will be filled with some Noodler's X-Feather as soon as it gets here. (well, as soon as it thaws out after it gets here).

 

Cheap pens all, the lot doesn't even add up to some of the single pens you guys are rockin', but I love them more than dollar signs.

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...

Great choice!

 

Amazing handwritten piece of order and neatness!

Parker Challenger with Edelstein Tanzanite; Jinhao 750 with Diamine Denim; Pilot 78G broad with Diamine Denim.

 

I'm becoming quite fond of the Diamine Denim, it's a very good indigo with a slight bit of shading so far.

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.

 

And today it fell on the floor and snapped clean in two, just in front of the lever, not a good start.

 

Today I am left with nothing else but a Hero Z-40, the shame of it all.
