Welcome to the Montblanc forum, a place for discussing MB pens, both vintage and modern.

 

Because the mere mention of the name Montblanc seems to invoke very heated discussions, the administrators and moderators would appreciate posters reviewing the FPN Guidelines and use basic netiquette before posting.

 

Remember:

 

Please be polite and civil to others. Please refrain from personal attacks, excessive profanity, and discriminatory comments (gender, race, faith, political, etc.)

 

In case messages do not adhere to the guidelines, appropriate action will be taken, f.e., pulling threads, asking people to edit messages, etc., up to and including full moderation of the whole forum. This will make the forum a lot less interactive than it could be.

 

So, let´s all behave like we always do, and keep this a nice place, not only for ourselves, but for everybody strolling into this forum.

 

Let´s go and enjoy!

 

Several threads about MB have been moved over here to 'seed' the forum but if you know of others that would be better here please PM one of the moderators.

Greetings Montblanc afficianados!

Where's the activity here...there's more to Montblanc than just complaining (substitute word) & moaning.

Here's a pic of some of my favorites, comfortable in the hand, pleasant to the eye and they're built to last a lifetime!

Yes, they are pompous. Yes, they are ostentatious. They shout "look at me" whilst the owner thinks he has status, and the stares think "pretentious". And, yes there are better pens out there (I'm told).

 

But that white star: it's like Coke, or the prancing horse of Ferrari.

 

I'm in, as the simplicity, unfussy black, and timeless design just give me what I want. Style is here in spades.

      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
