Phil's ballpoint pen from Cantu Bruner designs (from Amy)

The ink bottles are very classy looking.

The Blue Marlin fountain pen is a screw to close and friction fit to post. It has a medium stainless steel nib. It is a lovely writer. ML loves the color (BLUE OF COURSE).

The Shaeffer Prelude. Blue laquered brass with rose gold trim. It has a gold plated stainless steel medium nib. It looks better in real life than my picture. It writes beautifully. Friction fit to cap and post.

The special edition Pelikan. I received the Amethyst SE last Christmas and love it. This is the same except a different color. I selected the stainless EF nib. It is very very fine. The pen drags a little as the nib is so sharp. It slows my writing down. That is okay as it improves my handwriting.

A Cantu Bruner Designs pen. It is two spent .308 casings cerakoted black with copper accents. It is a strikingly handsome pen and takes Cross refills. I like it a lot.

These are writing samples of the inks and pens. The inks all handle very well.
The Topaz may be the long sought Mary Lou Perfect Blue. There will me much rejoicing and feasting in the village Big Grin

Lastly, Amy gave ML a Lanier Pens display stand. It is walnut and ebony wood. Beautiful.

We will enjoy all of these.
