Please excuse the poor quality photos, but here is my new(ish) 134 with an OB nib. Its far from perfect condition with wear to the body, damaged star, but it writes perfectly. It is next to my 138 for scale.

Thank you, Carlos. It does have some nice variation and a ton of flex to it.

MB Proust with medium nib. A grail pen that took me a very long time to find from an understanding seller who allowed me to make payments. Such a gorgeous pen!post-859-0-74298800-1388563222.jpg

Bordeaux rocks. Here's my 146R to whet your appetite

 

 

That is a nice 146R you have there Bladerunner here is mine. I picked up this absolute beauty of flea bay and feel I received a magnificent deal. It came in the original unscathed box with a purchase receipt of 1997. I won it for 340 AUD so about 300 USD with free shipping. It was advertised as never seeing the light of day and never inked, perhaps this is true. There are no micro scratches on it the condition is so perfect it is as if freshly purchased from a boutique! it is a medium nib comparable to the nib on my 149 albeit slightly sturdier.

 

I definitely took a gamble buying this from an ebayer with only 10 sales, however i am glad i did perhaps that is why i received such a great deal.

I've been lurking for a while and finally decided to join the ranks ;).

 

I added the Joseph II 4810 & 888 editions to my collection about six months ago.

Thanks for the welcome KJY.

 

These two are my current favorites, I'm actually surprised Montblanc didn't do them as a couple set for him/her :).

      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..
    • A Smug Dill
      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
    • adamselene
      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
