Orfew, what can i say except WOW! :)

Thanks, I am very pleased with it for three reasons.

First, it works flawlessly. Secondly, it has the earlier "ski slope" feed. Thirdly, it only costs me 200.00.

Wow again! That is a sumgai for sure.

 

The striated green montblancs are a grail for me (I love the 142/144/145/chopin size pens). I have looked at several with this colouring. I have only seen one that was in very good condition, with little if any ambering to the barrel. That was $1400.

Just added a Balzac fine point to my modest Montblanc collection. It's a gorgeous pen with a beautifully smooth nib.

Wow, orfew! That is amazing. Where did you find that at such an amazing price? I have a 146 in great condition, but it cost me $1500.

Thanks! I found it in the classifieds section of another pen board.

Congrats on a great pen. I write with mine nearly everyday.

Thanks Kai. I have been looking for a 264 ever since Jar posted his great review almost a year ago. Have you seen it?

My most recent was a Mont Blanc Solitaire 925 Silver Doue which I found at a house sale just lying there on the cashier's table. After a bit of friendly haggling she accepted my offer plus $1.00 so she could say she won the haggle. For the price I paid I was in no mood to protest. Clean as a whistle, not a scratch on the barrel, took it home and polished up the sterling and it looked brand new. No box or papers, of course, but I can live with that!

 

Sorry no pic, thought I had one but can't locate.

A friend of mine acquired this chrome and jade Mont Blanc rollerball in Switzerland. I've never seen one like it and any information you can provide would be much appreciated.post-76209-0-96238100-1383682149_thumb.jpg

Your friend acquired a very nice pen, a Czar Nikolai I.

      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
