I like the Visconti
So far, my favorite pen to use for pretty inks is the Pilot 742 with FA nib. A decent amount of flex for shading, and dependable. For everyday use though I do love the Noodler’s Konrad!
The Montblanc pilot pen.
My favorite pen to write with? Ooh, toughie. So many pens I like; but probably my absolute favorite is the 1949 Plum Demi Parker 51, M nib. But I also like my 1937 Red Shadow Wave Parker Vactumatic, F nib; and the Pelikan M405 Blue/Black, EF nib; and the light grey Pilot Decimo, F nib; and the dark blue Decimo, stub nib — which “sings” (first nib I ever had that did that); and the Noodler’s ebonite Konrad; flex nib; and the Cedar Blue Parker 51Vac with the rolled gold cap, EF nib (for when I need to take copious notes); and… and… and….
But the Plum Demi 51 is the one they’ll have to pry from my cold dead fingers….
My favorite pen to write with currently is my new Pilot Custom 74 in Merlot!
