Platinum trim 146 with black of some kind... I think it might be Sailor Kiwaguro, but it could as easily be Herbin Perle Noir...

 

Also, riding for non-fp needs, a Classique sized RB with the new purple refill...

 

Nice to see this thread pop back up... One of the few in which I can eagerly participate...

 

(Kerry 0.7MM for pencil stuff)

1985 MB 146 with a very pleasing 'M' nib, carrying MB Mystery Black (favourite ink for work), supported by my MB 145, MB 163 and MB 165. Used all four today. A good day.

 

Tomorrow, semi-formal meeting with someone I am told is a fountain pen enthusiast. Might take the same line up. Looking forward to seeing whether he spots whatever it is that I am carrying, without me having to be too obvious. It will make a pleasant change to chat pens with an interested stranger, if the chance presents itself.

Montblanc 342 with M nib and J. Herbin Lierre Sauvage ink. :) But it doesn't like that ink, I think I'll go back the Pelikan ink.

Best regards,

Having a pen 'maintenance' day today, bit of flushing & cleaning etc. Charles Dickens getting 'fueled later and my ink choice is going to be . . . . Poussiere De Lune from the J.Herbin stable.

The 1950's 149 with EF flexible nib (Private Reserve Tropical Blue) is joined today by Agatha (M nib) inked with Pelikan Turquoise and Proust (M nib) inked with Waterman Green. Sorry for the lousy quality of the pic (taken with my phone) :embarrassed_smile:
