Most precious writing instrument in the world

But wait! If you order now, they will include a personalized feather duster and 3 Ginzu knives. Order before midnight and they double the offer - just pay seperate shipping and handling. Ink? If you order any three bottles of ink they will throw in an autographed album of Sweating to the Oldies and a Richard Simmons pair of stripped short shorts. When you charge that kind of money for a pen, you can offer a lot of premiums. /Craig

 

 

Wait I just called 01800montblancwithgreenstones and they told me that they have not anymore the Ginzu knives. They offer me a glove like M Jackson to write with the montblancgreencucumber pen!!!! Imagine that!!!!

Hmm, I bet it costs only about $100,000 USD to make.

 

Is the nib retractable? It looks like it's only partially uncovered in the photo.

 

After all it is a Montblanc! Isn't that worth womething?

The pen is mighter than the sword. Support Wikileaks!

And by the way, this looks even worse than the Montblanc - Van Cleef and Arpels US $1M pen that previously held the record.

The sword is mightier than the pen. However, swords are now obsolete whereas pens are not.

Nuts. I'd rather have about 100000 Pelikanos. :D

 

Which you could donate 99% of it to a school so kids will (for at least once) stop hammering the PC keyboard. ;)

Craig, umm, I dunno how to put it but -- of course in reminiscence to the present topic -- I find your new avatar absolutely stunning.

 

I'm flat busted.

Too bad I didn't see this earlier. Spent my spare change on a Bugatti yesterday. Oh, well.

 

 

That's just too much marketing for a vegetable. Maybe not... "Wow, check out that guy's cucumber! It's precious!" I suppose it would depend on whether I want to have a precious cucumber or not. Precious is special and fragile, right? For 1.5 million, it better be special - it better make me drinks. Fragile is out. While I don't beat up my fountain pens, any of them can take slight accidents. I have a roller ball pen that can shatter car windows, I can drive it through plywood and it sure didn't cost 1.5 million (though it did not come with any knives - drat).

Off to godaddy.com to see if I can get the domain name preciouscucumber.com so I can sell expensive vegetables with nibs.....

Hopefully the people now staring at me like I need a straight jacket aren't the same people that were here in the coffee shop when I read about CraigR's new tattoo otherwise I will be carted off to the Mental facility. Maybe if I act crazy enough they will by me a bedazzled cucumber pen to write with. I need to stop reading these forums in between classes, since I can't hold my laughter in on some of these posts. :lol:

OMG I need one of those too. :D

I laughed out loud like a maniac when I read this!

 

Thank goodness I'm not trying to prove something. Now, if it was in sapphire with black diamonds that were endowed with the enslaved souls of demons...then yeah, I'd see that as an awesome deal. It sure would make getting my thesis done a lot easier.

 

....DEMON! PROOF READ MY THESIS!

....DEMON! DO YOU THINK I SHOULD USE A CREAM OR A LIGHT BLUE BACKGROUND FOR THE PRESENTATION?

....DEMON! FETCH ME SOME WATER!

....DEMON! Uh, oh never mind. I forgot what I needed. BE OFF WITH YOU!

The first Mont Blanc fountain pen I've seen that I really wanted. I have just notified my daughter and son (and all the grandkids) that previous versions of my Christmas want list are invalid. If they really love me they will give me one of these for Christmas!! I will consider giving up my two Esterbrooks and my P51 if I find this in my stocking come Christmas morning!! ;^))

You know, I was just on the verge of buying one when I realized it had a metal section. No deal!

I actually have one that can do all of those things plus more. I'd be willing to part ways with it for... say 2 mil. USD? Got it for 2.5 mil. but it's in ruby and black diamonds and since you wanted sapphire...

Call me a skeptic, but I'll wait until after the first FPN review to make my decision.

 

Now if you want a real hoot, translate the page with Google language tools into English. Just don't drink anything while reading it. B)

I hereby announce that my good old Parker 75 sterling silver is for sale. It's price €3,000,000 making it probably the most expensive pen. And yes, it writes, very well as a matter of fact.

Google? They're amateurs. You really want to read the Babelfish version. Trust me.

If you're selling thesis-writing demon pens, I just might have to buy one. I'm not all that particular about the jewels involved. My Safari is making me do all the work - it absolutely refuses to write my thesis for me. Two million, you say? Ummm... will you take a check? I'm good for it, I promise. Just go ahead and send the pen first, please.

      Oh to have that translucent pink Prera! @migo984 has the Oeste series named after birds. There is a pink one, so I’m assuming Este is the same pen as Oeste.    Excellent haul. I have some Uniball One P pens. Do you like to use them? I like them enough, but don’t use them too much yet.    Do you or your wife use Travelers Notebooks? Seeing you were at Kyoto, I thought of them as there is a store there.

      It's not nearly so thick that I feel it comprises my fine-grained control, the way I feel about the Cross Peerless 125 or some of the high-end TACCIA Urushi pens with cigar-shaped bodies and 18K gold nibs. Why would you expect me or anyone else to make explicit mention of it, if it isn't a travesty or such a disappointment that an owner of the pen would want to bring it to the attention of his/her peers so that they could “learn from his/her mistake” without paying the price?

      Why nobody says that the section of Tuzu besides triangular shape is quite thick. Honestly it’s the thickest one among my many pens, other thick I own is Noodler’s Ahab. Because of that fat section I feel more control and my handwriting has improved. I can’t say it’s comfortable or uncomfortable, but needs a moment to accommodate. It’s funny because my school years are long over. Besides this pen had horrible F nib. Tines were perfectly aligned but it was so scratchy on left stroke that collecte

      Awesome! I'm in the process of preparing my bag for our pen meet this weekend and I literally have none of the items you mention!! I'll see if I can find one or two!

      @asota -- Yeah, I think I have a few rolls in my fridge that are probably 20-30 years old at this point (don't remember now if they are B&W or color film) and don't even really know where to get the film processed, once the drive through kiosks went away....  I just did a quick Google search and (in theory) there was a place the next town over from me -- but got a 404 error message when I tried to click on the link....  Ruth Morrisson aka inkstainedruth
