    My latest:







    Sailor Trident from the 1980's with a very unique nib. Is that even a fountain pen anymore?

    No, it's not a fountain pen anymore.

    I have a Wancher with the same nib. I think I'll use it tomorrow.

    Thanks for the reminder.

    Is that a stylized 21 engraved on the nib? It's a lovely, big, fat pen, Well scored.

    The graphic on the card in the first photo certainly would indicate that.

    That's by Leonardo; a collaboration with onemanpenshow - Sarj Minhas.

    The tortoise was a recent add, the grey stripes I got last year, out of Italy.

    Pilot E95 was my latest pen with a 18kt Script nib. It writes F-M but has a very small rounded writing tip surface so it is difficult to use as an overwrite in the left hand. As for printing I suppose it works alright. Light and comfortable in the hand.
