Still the Opus 88 clear demonstrator, filled with Noodler's Apache Sunset.
Lamy 2K, BB ground to CI, La Couronne du Comte Bleu Cuivré
Visconti HS bronze, EF, Noodler's Aircorp Blue Black
Though the Lamy is almost empty. It's my most recent acquisition and I love the modified nib. So chances are it'll be cleaned out and refilled with another ink instead of getting some rest.

Pelikan Souveran M400 (FP) for my crosswords. Ink is sapphire blue Edelstein. I carry a Caran d'Ache 849 BP for other stuff.
Both fit nicely into my Levenger eyeglass sleeve that features two pen compartments. Great product that I wish they'd offer in brown leather (mine's black). I've had mine for more than 20 years, and it's doing fine. The M400 is about as large a pen as it will comfortably take, though. No way an M800 will fit in that thing.

are still there. The Lamy 2K, BB ground to CI, ran out of 'La Couronne du Comte Bleu Cuivré', got cleaned and is now filled with Diamine Scribble Purple.

A Parker 21 Super with Private Reserve ultra black and my always reliable 1949 Parker 51 with Sheaffer Skrip blue/black.
Just fitted a Jinhao stub size 5 into one of my Kaweco sports. Manuscript red ink. Really, really nice.
Lamy 2000, Pelikan Royal blue.
Last night, I did something that I never do: I emptied the Lamy while it wasn't even half. The Diamine Scribble Purple really doesn't agree with the nib. Far too dry an ink it seems. No matter what paper I used, it would stop writing after just a few words. Didn't happen with any other ink I put in the Lamy, nor with the Kaigelu 316 when filled with this ink. I'll have to keep an eye on that ink (a new bottle, this was just the second time I used it). So currently:

I'm carrying these Parkers, which were all bought separately, but certainly go well as a set. Left to right: ballpoint, Jotter with a Schmidt EasyFlow Blue refill, 180 fountain pen with De Atramentis Document Dark Blue ink, twist action 45 mechanical pencil, 0.9 mm 2B lead.
As it is in my rotation roster today is the turn of Ranga 4CS Green Ripple with unknown black ink.
Pilot Varsity, emptied and refilled with Noodler's Zhivago. Man does this hold a lot of ink. A perfect knock around pen, and if I lose it I don't care.
