A new thread for a New Year.
Have an x159 on its wayOn recommendation from @mata_66
Jinhao X159 Blue Acrylic? F (looks more M to me)
Very light for the size. I only scribbled a grocery list but no scratching, ink flows easily. Looking forward to use this one in the office.

It's always fun to get new pens and ink to try out. What size nib did you get on the sheaffer? They have wonderful nibs in my experience.Back in October 2019, I posted about potentially heading down the rabbit hole after rediscovering my Waterman Phileas set.
Now, more than three years later, I have ventured at least a few steps.
I had a gift card to use at the Fountain Pen Hospital that had lain unused.
I got a Sheaffer Prelude for 50% off (the merlot color).
In getting ink, I got the free Charlie eyedropper pen when ordering a bottle of Noodler's Heart of Darkness.
I also got a bottle of Marine Green.
I have ordered the Pilot Metropolitan Retro Pop in purple.
A bottle of Noodler's Purple Mountain Majesty will accompany it.
I've been having fun writing with all of them and look forward to the new arrivals!
Fine (after I tested it in the Fountain Pen Hospital, I liked what I saw).It's always fun to get new pens and ink to try out. What size nib did you get on the sheaffer? They have wonderful nibs in my experience.
Nice Lamy; and thanks for teaching me an alternative to "the quick brown fox!"New pen from my partner. Early birthday gift.
She spoils me.
Lamy CP1.
Very sleek profile. I love it.

Nice, what is it? I always can squeeze through with a new pastel Kaweco Sport…Bought this one for the LOTH for her 50th.
Should have included that!Nice, what is it? I always can squeeze through with a new pastel Kaweco Sport…

This is a Gioia Partenope Avorio. Comes with a fountain pen head as well as a roller ball head.
The head inlay represents the skiline of Napels Italy.
Kaweco is on her wish list too!
