Montblanc Agatha Christie LE-review

Interesting review, thank you Amir. I view the Christie as a MB icon, along with the Hemingway and the Medici.

 

Interesting that you find the Christie a pleasant writer. Is it because of the nib or is there something else?

 

I for one find the Christie resin particularly hard on the fingers, well maybe not as hard as metal, but not far. Moreover, I find the pen a bit top heavy when posted. Do you post this pen when you write?

This is really interesting Robert,we like the same pens but our perception of them is very different.

I find the clean design,overall balance and feel of the MB resin on this pen to be very comfortable and pleasent to use.

The nib is good but Sean Gosse will need to look at the nib (on the 13th) to put his magic in it as its just a bit too rough.

This pen reminds me a lot the 146 in the hand.

 

I never post my pens so this is not an issue for me.

      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
