Which Starwalker Is This Please?


Hirogen

Recommended Posts

Hi,

I write a tremendous amount most days between 3 Lamy's Safaris (a B, a 1.1Caligraphy, and a 1.5 calligraphy and often would get through 2 refills or even 3 in a day).

I mix my own ink: 20% MB Irish Green and 80% Cross Black and refill cartridges with a syringe and needle.

 

Today having been reasonably good at not loosing the Lamy's for over a year, I decided I deserved an MB.

 

For some time i've thought about a Starwalker.

I looked at 5 today and then I bought this one, which is what I liked the best.

But I don't know what model this is? It's not on the website - I presume its a discontinued model.

 

Also are there B or OB nibs for these ones and is it OKish to continue to mix the inks for this one too ?

 

Thanks

Tom

Did you know you can view MB products on their website. This would have taken less time to do than it did to post this forum thread.

I have the ball point off this and its an amazing pen, really nice weight and feels balanced. Mine has been used as my daily writer for a few years. It is my go to pen and has now been discontinued. I preferred it to my blue star walkers, which had to leave the fold.

Best wishes.

He did look, but - as he wrote - that model is discontinued.

      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
