Please excuse the poor quality photos, but here is my new(ish) 134 with an OB nib. Its far from perfect condition with wear to the body, damaged star, but it writes perfectly. It is next to my 138 for scale.

Thank you, Carlos. It does have some nice variation and a ton of flex to it.

MB Proust with medium nib. A grail pen that took me a very long time to find from an understanding seller who allowed me to make payments. Such a gorgeous pen!post-859-0-74298800-1388563222.jpg

Bordeaux rocks. Here's my 146R to whet your appetite

 

 

That is a nice 146R you have there Bladerunner here is mine. I picked up this absolute beauty of flea bay and feel I received a magnificent deal. It came in the original unscathed box with a purchase receipt of 1997. I won it for 340 AUD so about 300 USD with free shipping. It was advertised as never seeing the light of day and never inked, perhaps this is true. There are no micro scratches on it the condition is so perfect it is as if freshly purchased from a boutique! it is a medium nib comparable to the nib on my 149 albeit slightly sturdier.

 

I definitely took a gamble buying this from an ebayer with only 10 sales, however i am glad i did perhaps that is why i received such a great deal.

I've been lurking for a while and finally decided to join the ranks ;).

 

I added the Joseph II 4810 & 888 editions to my collection about six months ago.

Thanks for the welcome KJY.

 

These two are my current favorites, I'm actually surprised Montblanc didn't do them as a couple set for him/her :).

      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
