Thanks for the info. I opted for the Sailor and have been using it as my primary writer for a week now. I must say that it is a very different writing experience than my TWSBI Diamond (F) and the Schmidt #5s on my YStudio Brassing and TC pens. It really feels like I’m writing with a mechanical pencil. I enjoy it. I now have the Diplomat Viper in blue on back order.

I mostly use my Traveler's Company brass fountain pen fitted with a Schmidt EF nib because It's always with me attached to my Traveler's Notebook. My backup 2nd most used was YStudio's Brassing Portable which I ended up losing while traveling in Italy's Adriatic coast. I typically cary 2 pens with different colours. In the Traveler's Company pen I use Diamine's Writer's blood and in the YStudio, I was using Diamine's Hell's Bells. Having 2 pens with two inks enables me to have more flexibility in contextual jotting.

Thank you. It's a brass pen from The Traveler's Company using Diamine Writer's Blood Ink. The pen comes with a steel F nib manufactured by Shmidt, but I swapped it out with a Schmidt #5 EF nib.

I retired from the profession, and watching this series was like reliving the life.

I’m glad I left the US to have my son born in the Czech Republic (his mother is Czech). Education is better. Health care is better. My employer at the time provided paid paternal leave!

Yes, We have Peters world maps in our house. My wife insisted. I'm so blessed to have found someone as nerdy as me.

T-Shirt says it all.
