Its a pilot heritage 912 with a falcon postcard nib. Its made for writing on shitty paper. 10k nib. Arco pens are very beautiful, I regret not getting the Visconti Manhattan when it first came out. I think that pen is the pinnacle of beauty. For all of you wondering what a Visconti Manhattan is, this is it.

Pilot was going to be my second guess. I have several Pilot Vanishing Points, plus swap out nib kits. I didn't know anyone here was interested. I might post a few photos

Seems like you are the only one interested haha Arco pens are becoming so expensive. I wish I had gotten into them before the price rose so much.

Here are a few old photos of EDCs and desk riders. Some are new, some are old. My fav writing pen is the old classic Parker 51. Pilot, from Japan is also excellent.
Enjoy!

I recognize the TWSBI, pelican, pilot and parker. What is that one in the middle? I like your collection of blue ink. I am partial to mont blanc royal blue.

How do you like the TWSBI? I felt like it wrote too wet. What is the red one? Sailor or pilot?

Platinum Century #3776 Bourgogne.
TWSBI needs to be wet to make up for the scratchy.

Their nib is not as smooth as others. I really like pilot nibs. Bach also made a bunch of good nibs. The vintage nibs are best, though. I dont know what it is, maybe the metal composite is better, but they write a lot smoother and are more flexible.
