Filcao Tukano button filler - medium - PR SS Blue - this pen is excellent,
fantastic writer. Pelikan 400 - broad - PR Black Cherry - somewhat finicky nib 2 Pelikan Go! M75's -medium- Aurora Black, PR Sherwood Green. I use these everyday, and as the group has mentioned, excellent writers and what a bargain. Write better than the M400. ------- Pahoo (a lurker, who enjoys your posts) "Bluesea" wrote in message ...

I think this is a pretty complete list:
Cross Townsend Waterman Black Parker 51 Aeromatic Waterman Black (EF) Waterman Laurent Black Waterman Black Rotring Core Titanium Waterman Blue (F) Parker 51 Vacumatic Waterman Blue Black Rotring Core Coridium Waterman Blue Black (F) Colibri Scrooge Waterman Green Green SheafferTriumph Waterman Green Rotring Core Lysium Waterman Green (F) Parker 75 Waterman Havana Rotring Core Eternium Waterman Havana (F) Wooden no-name Waterman Havana Blue Sheaffer Triumph Waterman Purple Rotring Core Tecnor Waterman Purple (F) Red Lamy Safari Waterman Red Parker Sonnet Waterman South Seas Blue Except to those marked "F" or "EF" the nibs are "Medium" I find that this means quite a bit of variation. I find myself writing with the Rotring Cores more than the others at work because they're rugged and secure in my pocket. I really like the vintage Parkers and tend to use them more than the others when writing in my journal. I find that I prefer fine nibs more than any other & will probably choose this when buying pens in the future. Maybe I should try KCat's suggestion & use a slanted writing surface.
