Is it possible to post a picture? I admit that I'm clueless.

Me too, Leo! That's what I've been using thus far today but I'm using a limited edition one. Have a regular G-2 in my handbag as well. For the money, there exists no better pen!

IT'S AMAZING!

If only they still made pens like this these days, instead of spitting them out as "limited editions".
These are actually not that old. Sheaffer remade these in very limited quantities from the 70's - 90's and they are nicely done. If you can land one I do recommend adding one to your collection. They are also great writers.

My G-2 is now a happy camper after being used all day.....the thought of revolution has now been satisfied and placed on the back burner.....

Same Pelikan as usual for me. I think it might be time to expand my collection a bit

Kai, that pen writes really nice and it's fun to see someone write with it that has a lot of experience with FPs!!!

Today I am using my Omas Arco Dama with a newly tuned nib in fine italic! This just returned from Sherrell Tyree along with my MB147 and a MB149, both have been reground to a OM and FI respectively. Best work on nibs I have ever had done. Can't recommend Sherrell highly enough.

After Richard's picture of his beautiful FP and his refined, sophisticated tastes, I am embarrassed to admit I have been writing with a simple Dr. Grip Center of Gravity pen (which I love BTW!).

I'm using the MB Ballpoint...with a twist. I got the Monteverde Gel refills for it. They seem to be working pretty darn good! I'm also playing with the Taccia FP, I got some Noodlers Blue/Black...which happens to look more Green/Black...but it's nifty either way.
