Your new pens are beautiful! I’m glad you found a solution for your nib dilemma. My Independence Day pen is a red, white, and blue LAMY Safari. I plan to ink with my Colorverse Stars and Stripes ink. I hope I got the name right. Thanks for the Amazon tip. I’m proud of your sons and will remember them in prayers for their service and dedication. Thanks for sharing!

Oh wow! I’m going to need to look up that Colorverse Ink, and see if ai can find the Lamy just out of curiosity. Thank you for the sweet encouragement regarding my “military” sons.

Thank you to your sons for their service. They will be in my prayers. I’m from an Air Force family. One day, I hope to get on I-70 (I’m in Kansas City) and go to the St Louis Pen Show!

I wish you would! In fact, I thought of asking you this year-wished I would have-but I wasn’t positive I would get to go myself. Thank you for the prayers and I will pass along to them your words of thanks!

Nice haul! What a deal on the Abalone pen! 👍👍👍 When you said a patriotic pen, I thought of the Conklin All American glory pen. I’ve also thought of getting that one. Thank you for the tip!

You’re welcome…let me know what you decide. It really is the perfect color combination for a patriotic vibe. 🇺🇸

@@gailsbookishthings5191I’m not going to order one. Maybe another time. 😊 I already have two Conklin All American pens as well as two Conklin Duragraph, so I’ll save my money for the vintage Sheaffer I’m looking for.

Love the “Old Glory“ Pen. So glad you found a pen to commemorate your fine sons. Now my Sailor “Go USA“ will make me think of those serving our country as well.

Yes! I like that we have these reminders and they will be fun for the patriotic holidays, too.

That red pen is very interesting, and it's definitely special now that it's ingrained with a personal meaning. All the best to your sons

Abalone is pronounced short a, b, open a, l, long o, n, the last e is pronounced as a long a. Also, IMHO that looks like a Brooks Abalone. Good buy!

Thank you for your help with that. 😃 I was sure happy to find it.
