I was told my the Montblanc boutique in Los Angeles that the next author being recognized by Montblanc for their writer's series is Jonathan Swift, the writer of Gulliver's Travel. This should be a very elaborate pen, just like the Carlo "Pinochio" Collodi pens. I'm excited! I think/hope it will feature a highly detailed design with Liliputians. Can anyone tell me anything specific about the design? Does anyone know of a link to a site with some pictures? Thanks in advance.

First off :W2FPN:

 

This was posted a week or so ago by another member. As far as I know there are no pictures out yet. Last year it was about mid-year before they started showing up. I am curious about this one.

If the barrel of the pen doubles as a meat thermometer, I'm buying one. "A Modest Proposal" was one of my favorite reads in high school.

A site that you should keep your eyes on is this one:

http://www.cruzaltpens.com/

It had information on and fotos of the current WE long before any other site did last year. Add the link to your favorites and just visit the "historico" section from time to time.Welcome & Cheers.

I too, think that this is the choice work of Swift's. Perhaps a chef and small children motif?

My guess is that the acquisition of one of these will be no modest proposal!

      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
