    Awaiting a very nice looking vintage Aurora 88P with a fine nib. Will be a companion to the same pen with the M nib, hands down my smooovist writing pen. I could write for days on end with it, so I'm happy to have the fine on the way, looks to be in marvelous condition. (I wanted to post just one pic, but all the pics are actually... uh... one photo!)

    Unfortunately I sent this back. It came with no box or papers and the cap was dirty. Not really the "unopened, unused" condition that I expected.

    I'm waiting on a Nemosine Fission in navy with a .6mm italic nib. A cheaper way of trying out a finer italic before I commit to a pen I really want.

    I like my x750 in matte black. I've ordered a stub italic for it so hopefully it fits.

    Just ordered Visconti 25th Anniversary Homo Sapiens Lava Steel Age Midi size with a Broad nib.
    They have got to come up with shorter names for these pens!!

    Does anyone know if the broad palladium nib is stubbish (like the Montblanc broad) or thick with every stroke?

    I just swapped my steel's nib for a broad and I would say it's the latter. Pretty much a fat line in any direction.

    Does a pen that you are yet to order because it is not in stock at the B&M store you patronize count???

    If so then it's the graphite Lamy All-Star. At first I hated the design and the clip. Now, it just seems to grow on me.

    You can write with line variation, but the ink flow is very strong. Have to wait for a long time to let the ink dry.
