My favorite black pen? Well, here is my Montblanc L139.

Filling a fountain pen is much more fun than changing a printer cartridge

I (had) two. Dantrio Raw Ebonite Mikado (the larger one) and Nakaya Picccolo.

 

Unfortunately, I no longer have the Dani (stupid, stupid.... :headsmack: )

Patrick, how do you like the size and weight of the Simoni? Is the Piston smooth? I am curious about this new pen.

Great thread. I never get tired of the combination chrome/black - especially not when the design is Italian...

One pen that is missing here - haven't had the time to take proper photos of it yet - is my Aurora Talentum in Black/Chrome.

 

My Visconti Opera in black guilloche is a favourite

...as well as the Montegrappa NeroUno which I don't own anymore but think is a very special pen.

Here are some of my "black" pens

Is that a Nakaya 2nd from the right? Looks lovely! I haven't seen a Chinkoku on black with platinum patterns before...

Yes, it is Siv. And what's special about the pen is that the clip and the music nib are both ruthenium colored. Somewhat like black. :)

Ah, that fresh ink on paper look!

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..

      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
