What is your latest pen acquisition?

[Avalona]

TWSBI Eco with a F nib. It was my birthday pen. Currently filled with Sheaffer Turquoise. Wanted another workhorse pen with a large ink capacity and I love the lime green accents.

Just received my Platinum Kawaguchi with a broad nib ground to a .7cursive italic and a vintage 1970's kaweco Sport v16 with a 14 k ef nib and is of course a piston fill. I'm anxiously awaiting my 1970's MYU with black stripes.

I have two new acquisitions. I bought a Visconti HS Bronze off a fellow FP Geek. I have an HS Steel midi, and I've been wanting to switch to an extra fine nib. Upgraded to the maxi and sourced an EF nib. Loving this pen. Likely putting the midi up for sale. The second is a new Sailor Pro Gear II Realo. I sold a Sailor Pro Gear several months ago. I've been missing it ever since. I decided to get back into a Pro Gear and opted for the Pro Gear II Realo with a medium fine nib. Something about the new generation clip design, two-tone nib, and ink window drew me in. I picked this one up from the post office on Saturday.

My brown Karras Kustom Ink came the other day, along with my KWZ Honey ink. They go well together.

Sorting through my Dad's stuff, we found some more of his pens, including one I never knew he had. Apologies for the poor quality picture, but I'm a little excited:

The bottom pen is a Parker Minifold (Made in England), the middle one is a Conway 150, and the top one is a Montblanc 146. No idea when my Dad got the Montblanc, maybe it was a leaving present when he retired. Couldn't find any paperwork, but the pens were all in the Montblanc case. None of these pens have been touched for nearly 20 years, so some careful restoration is in order.

Actually it's a Montblanc 149, now I can look at it in good light.

Hi, Ira,

Does it write well, too? I know you were concerned about the nib.

[writingrav]

Well, it's an extra fine so I'm really not familiar with how it should feel. There's plenty of feedback but writes perfectly well. I wouldn't call it scratchy.

I hav the demonstrator version and the nib really impressed me. It is super smooth.

No pics yet, but I am eagerly awaiting a Parker Duofold Greenwich LE pen in the mail. Can wait to actually handle one.
