Thanks to some help from Zaddick and Chrissy, I've bought my first (I'm assuming) BB Montblanc. Got a good deal on it, so I'm pretty happy. A bit of time with some pen flush and the ultrasonic and it works fantastic.

 

Of course there's pics...and a writing sample! I guess y'all can confirm my BB suspicions.

Very nice, congrats. There's no cure though...

Looks like a BB to me. They did not make 3B in this generation of pen. Looks like a nice wide line with good stub characteristics. Excellent choice.

If you want less blah, blah, blah and more pictures, follow me on Instagram!

Looks great. Very nice ink. Dipping my own toe in the waters with a 149 B.

Could you share a writing sample?

Thanks everyone for all the kind comments. Meiers, that kon-peki looks really great with your pen. I like the look of the less saturated inks with broader nibs; this shading looks great!

BB nibs are wonderful. Check this one out.

Great Shading in that pen. That is the best look of Kon-Peki ink that I have seen. It always looked to light for my taste. Looks great in your sample.

      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
