I have several favorite black pens but here is a more recent one - a Matador Standard; absolutely comparable to Montblancs of the fifties.

Thanks it is a gold Supra nib. Model #74. Semi Flex very smooth.

 

Love that Matador. I will acquire one of those someday.

That seems like a sweet nib! The reason I asked if it was gold is I have mostly seen earlier model sport steel nibs.

Thanks for the info.

Well, I said currently...

 

The 100N is nice and an important part of my collection so I probably will keep for a longer time. But as the most collectors, I like my newest aquisitions most, until I catch another new one. (said in words of another FPN member: "The pen I like most? The one I don't have.")

 

I really like the shape of this pre war "Meisterstücks". The only reason why I don't collect them is that they're to expensive, you know.

 

(...but for a micro- or sub collection, there should be a least three pens. So we will see what happens... :) )

Pens are like watches , once you start a collection, you can hardly go back. And pens like all fine luxury items do improve with time

      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
