Managed to get hold of a Dickens ballpen to accompany the fp on its travels and to use when a fp wont work or when someone needs to scribe something and they dont have a pen.

 

They seem to be getting on well :)

Perfect match! For me, both my FP and BP are in different MB pen cases, but I still bring both out together to work.

Lamy 2000 FP, PP, BP, MFP & RB. Mont Blanc Meisterstück 161 Le Grand Platinum BP & Heritage 1912 FP.

@Jar, I am very envious of your ability to find such great deals. Congrats on a beautiful pen at an even more beautiful price.

Current Wishlist:

Visconti, Visconti, and...more Visconti! (And some ST Duponts too). (Ok fine, getting on the Omas and Montblanc trains now too. Toot toot.) (And maybe on the Montegrappa one too, but only for the Miyas.)

Nice set Pen Nut. The Dickens ballpoint is one of the best looking WE ballpoints IMHO :)

I think the Dickens is good value for money and a good everyday useable WE.

 

Do like the substantial cap on the fp, Its a good 'thinking item' to twiggle in your hand whilst contemplating stuff.........hope that made sense & think people on here will know what I mean.

My first ever MB.

 

A nice 146 M...here with my Franklin-Christoph cae and notebook holder. Second hand but immaculate, writes nice and smooth. Hoping it's genuine...

Congratulations! I don't see any reason why it wouldn't be authentic. Many people here, including myself, have yet to hear of a counterfeit Legrand fountain pen/146. Hope you enjoy it and that it serves you well! :)

I keep thinking about selling some of my pens but all that happens is I keep acquiring more!

Second hand is the way to go with MB. Man people buy them as status symbols, rarely if ever use them, and then they turn up on the used market.

I'm still trying to figure out how to list all my pens down here.

I got another danish 246 (piston filler) yesterday, in very good shape and with clear imprint, it just needed a cork to work again.

I have got a few of these, so they must have been rather popular in their day (1941-1954).

Congratulations on the beautiful pen! I'm a sucker for the design of vintage nibs :)

It had been awhile since I bought any Montblanc items but when I saw an Alexander Dumas père for sale at Bertram's Inkwell with box and presentation case for only $550.00 I figured it was once again time. The Dumas is one of the few MB special edition pens that has caught my fancy so I figured it was worth a flyer.

 

There was a small tear one one flap of the outer box but nothing serious.

The display case was near perfect.

and the pen itself all that I could hope for.

550$ for this fountain pen is a bargain !!! I bought one for 795 euro and considered it a good chance.

      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
