Glad to be here!

Wow am I learning!! I thought Mont Blanc has always made really great pens and that everything they produce is virtually the best. So that was my first pen. Shush now, I'm new at this, in that the MB is only my 2nd real pen in the last 25 years. It's a fine point meisterstuck that is too wet and it's scratchy. I also have a Cross that I paid $10.00 for on the close out rack at a Franklin store. I love it!! Go figure.

Now I find out reading some of the forum posts here that MB ink will eat your non MB pen away and generally ruin your life. So a question to you helpful types please. What is a good, safe, dependable, available ink that can be used in a lot of pens - especially a Parker 51!

Thank You!!

Parker Quink, Sheaffer Skrip, Waterman's Ink *yaaaawn*...ummm....Marlen ink...Montblanc ink...Yeah. They're all good. And safe.

But if you're excessively paranoid - stick with Waterman, Sheaffer and Parker. I have and have never regretted it.

Welcome to FPN. I really like the Private Reserve line of inks. I have several of them. So far, I have not had any problems with them. I hope you find an ink you are comfortable with.
