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

Oh, happy birthday!

BTW, I'm using my Parker Sonnet with Paradise Pen ink.

AND... yes! I'm filling out some index cards with some blue samples.

I'm using my Baoer with 54th Mass.

 

I never realized it until I read this thread that my Baoer has a model number stamped on the cap opposite the name, 388.

 

I'm using the 54th Mass mostly in homage to my daughter who is at school at Boston University. It is really darker than I like (I prefer a bright blue). Once my sample bottle is used up I probably won't buy it again. Hey, that's what samples are for, right?

My Pens in chronological order:

Baoer 388 - Black - M nib

Lamy AL-Star - Blue - F nib

Kaweco AL Sport - Raw aluminium - M nib

A little over a week ago, I cleaned pretty much all my pens before taking a short holiday. So, this morning I got to pick whatever I liked and I returned to an old favorite of mine: Montblanc Agatha Christie, F nib, with Iroshizuku Asa-gao ink. Lovely. The huge Montblanc 149 O3B still has MB Permanent Grey in it, and makes for a great "headline pen". It wrote perfectly after not being used for 9 days.

 

Decided to add a green-marbled Danish Montblanc 246 with F nib, filled with MB Jonathan Swift ink (green) for my journal entries.

I guess I'll go with my Parker Sonnet F.

Ink? Many different inks today.

Took notes at a meeting with the Slimline MB--my original pen from years ago (after high school that is, probably I had some kind of who-knows-what back then.) I think there is Pelikan Bleu Mystere in it and it writes really well. Probably still my fave pen.
