Fountain pens - 146, Nickel Steel Noblesse from the 1970s (original Noblesse design - a $25 pen)

 

Ballpoints - three of the lever ballpoints, one with gold top; one Noblesse nickel steel slimline, original design; one of the classic style ballpoints from the 80s

 

Gone but not forgotten - a ballpix ballpoint; two steel Quickpens; brushed chrome Noblesse v.2 ballpoint

 

 

All good pens - I love the Noblesse steel FP the best. $25, nearly forty years later, writes as if new.

 

I don't use the 146 as much as I should - but it is a nice nib (circa 1977).

One, a 149 (M).

 

I really like this pen, but not much else offered my Mont Blanc really appeals to me. My one probably will remain my only MB.

Just one, Meisterstueck Le Grand, EF, black resin and gold.

Absolutely no problems for the last three years or so.

The pen delivered what has been promised by MB's marketing team.

 

Why golden? I bought black resin and platinium Le Grand for my "better half" a few weeks before I bought mine.

That was the fastest way to diffrentiate those pens quickly (especially in a morning, befor coffee kicks in).

 

The next one - only after they change their prices on limited editions. Downward, I mean. Not quickly, I guess.

MB 144, black with F nib

steel Noblesse from the 80's (I think)

Kafka :cloud9:

 

The are all excellent writers. I probably won't buy another MB, only because I doubt I could afford customer services, should I ever need them. Which is really too bad.

      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
