Yay! My Montblanc highlighter finally arrived from the UK. The Plastic is s a bit scratched, but it's fine for everyday carry:

From the box, I'm guessing mid nineties?

Just added a Rollerball to my collection :) Just not any Rollerball :) The 75th Anniversary Solid 18K Gold 162 Le Grand Rollerball, which is limited to only 75 pieces :)

 

I also treated myself to a very nice German made watch, to go with the pen :)

My local B&M recently had some rebate on several NOS pens.

I could not resist a lonely little 145 ultra black.

Hi everyone - Tom Kellie is alive and well.



He and a friend were out enjoying the weather a couple of days ago and sent me these pictures.

Tom is an amazing photographer. I wanted to share with you some of his outstanding photography:

It seems many were out enjoying the day. Even the SWAT police need a break - even it is just to catch up with friends:

Tom and I both wish everyone to stay healthy and be well!

That's great news! Thanks 5Caveliers.

 

Now is probably not the best time to be buying second hand stuff from strangers on eBay, but I bought an MB Siena 3 pen pouch in burgundy which should be here next week. Now, I’ll have a black case for my black Legrand set and a burgundy to match my burgundy Legrandes. I’m weirdly satisfied by that.

In 2019 I bought a Hemingway from FPN member Henry Mosberg.

 

Today the Hemingway returned from a trip to Gary Lehrer with a broad nib in place of the extra fine.

 

Two fine gentlemen combined to make a perfect pen in hand.

Just placed an order for the 146 Martele. I have been contemplating this pen for a while, and the recent picture and comments pushed me over the edge, now I just have to wait for it to arrive...……….

What nib size did you get? Mine is a F nib (daily driver) and keep having second thoughts about getting an OB.

In the past 6 months, I bought the Blue Hour ballpoint and the ordinary black glossy Marc Newson (in M).

 

I am very happy with the Blue Hour (it sometimes easy to use a ballpoint - mainly if you have to sign a lot of documents and you don't want to take the time to wait for the ink to dry or to use a blotter) but I am not yet fully sure about the Marc Newson. The looks are stunning (imho) but I still have to get use to a different grip compared to other pens and thus a different writing experience.

And in the next 6 months, I reallyreallyreally want to buy the Martelé (in F). Really. It reminds me of my Mcusta Shinra Emotion Tsuchi pocketknive.

      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
