It's the same thing every day.


Why? Because these are my favorites. :)


My all time everyday pen: Black Parker Sonnet with fine nib.


I am also using a Gold Parker 75 with a extra fine nib.


I have two Parker 51s and a Parker 180.


The only non-Parker on my desk is a Pilot with medium nib... and a Montblanc Meisterstuck Classique ballpoint black.

I've been spending a lot of time with my TWSBI 580. It always surprises me how well it writes compared to much more expensive pens. I've also been using my Edison Nouveau Premiere - Caribbean Sea a lot with an EF nib. Great pen :)

Micarta TWSBI bold and it’s very smooth and fun to use. That’s with Noodlers Antietam.

Visconti Homo Sapiens Bronze Age oversize with 1.3mm stub nib (Parker Quink Blue)

Vintage MB 14 with O3B nib (Noodler's Legal Lapis)

Vintage Mabie Todd Swan self-filler "dark green marbled" (Omas Sepia)

Green striated Pelikan M800 with a Richard Binder stub nib (ground from a Medium - would it be 0.6 or 0.7 stub? I forget) - the Pelikan came out of the nest yesterday, when a Parker P51 ran out of ink and was flushed (Noodler's Legal Lapis)

 

I tend to rotate my pens and have 2 to 4 inked at any one time. I am not consistent in that if a pen runs out of ink, it goes into storage and a new one comes out. For example, I think the P51 went through 2 refills and the Swan now 3. But when the Swan and MB14 next run out, they get flushed and something else comes to play...

Today, I'm using the teal Parker 51, freshly cleaned of years of gunk. The nib is a little wider than I like, but this was a formerly daily use pen, and it writes the smoothest of the pens I have.
