I tend to use most of my pens in rotation to make sure I get to use all of them. That said, my vintage ones tend to get rotated in when I know I'll be working from home to save them being beaten up in my briefcase.

The one exception to this is my Mont Blanc, given to me by my wife as an engagement present and subsequently used to sign the marriage register. It's the most valuable pen in my collection both sentimentally and financially so I don't want to risk it getting lost, damaged or going walkabout. I use it for a lot of random things around the house but mainly for keeping a journal since my son was born a) to remember his early days through the haze of sleeplessness and b) to let him and his descendants get to know me a bit as a person long after I've snuffed it.
