Starwalker

I got mine at discount from the Fountain Pen Hospital at the Chicago Pen Show....40% off the MB Boutique price.

 

Not sure if it was a "Show Only" price, though.

I'm sure most International Sized converters which is easily found in most Pen stores, online pen sellers, etc will fit the Starwalker

 

Sorry to say they dont, we have tried.

 

Kind regards

True - still searching.

ps Hi Izzy, I see you too are in Sussex

I used to like this pen, had one, sold it and bought another (very cheap in a silent auction). It is a very strange pen in that although I feel it could withstand travel and be a reliable performer it somehow feels hollow and formulaic, too much of a tool and not enough of an instrument.

Ah, but have you tried Tryphon's mini-converter?

I have, and love, a MB 145 Chopin courtesy of Eurostar.

 

I now have enough points to get another pen from them and I find they have changed to the Starwalker in place of the 145.

 

Should I get one?

Do you like yours, and why?

 

My reservation is that I hear it is cartridge only and I use ink from bottles and can't really imagine re-filling cartriges - or does it take standard size cartridges (like Visconti blue - which is lovely)?

 

Sorry, lots of questions....

The Starwaker does not support the current Montblanc converter. It has a threads and the Starwalker does not have threads. I you can order or find an old style Montblanc converter that has an end that looks like a carterage it will work.
