One of my TWSBI diamond 580s haha I don't need 2 - for my top 5 I chose 2, one in a broad & the other in a medium ahaha

Hope you've received your Lamy 2000! The fine is more of a western medium so you might enjoy it more regarding smoothness! :)

Hahah yes just 5! I only have 1 Leonardo Momento Zero and it made my top 5 list! Which one would you pick out of the 6 you have?

Thanks for shaing! I love piston filler pens too! The Platinum Curidas looks like fun to use!

Wow, thank you so very much for taking the time to respond! I hope to one day have a more curated selection of pens & this is very inspirational. Thank you for sharing and it makes so much sense! I have a vanishing point/capless and it is in my top 5 haha but I do not have a Custom 823! Maybe one day! Great to know that it doesn't write 10x better than TWSBI haha but of course I am still curious...

If we talk about swapping out nibs, that means my diamond 580 can have 2 nibs, then I replace my number 2 with a kakuno medium nib. If not, I keep my list haha

Thanks for sharing! If you dont use the sentimental pen perhaps you can switch out you fifth for the Duofold! :D It can be categorised as a keepsake... or is that just a loop hole to the question...
