very nice pieces :thumbup: thanks for sharing

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

Incidentally there is a dealer here who is offering a 142 Green Striated (straight striations) for $940...Its in perfect condition with green only slightly darkened.Now what do I do...glare.gif

 

In perfect condition? Then I guess you should go for it... good luck.

I think it could be interesting...I'm sure I speak for most when I say we'd like to see what you both got stashed away in your boxes :)

Hi,

 

from the list I mentioned, only 1, 2 and, 5 are in my collection :crybaby:. But I also have some other rare pens, the architect pen, the 136 pearl black ... and some others.

 

But of course, Max and Axel ... you both could open your boxes. There are probably some very, very rare pens.

 

By the way: One of my favorite pens is the 122 Malachite ... so if anybody here ever wants to sell his pen. Please let me know :drool:

Next Box..., okay, only a little part of the box. All pens are based on the 344, not realy nice in my opinion, but very very rare. To the left we have a beveled (12) 344

Keep going guys - this could turn into a 'pen off' :o but the winners would be...well us viewers of course! Nice to see pens that I have hardly heard of never mind seen.

Hi TETRIS

 

Max and Axel by far have the most interesting collection I have ever heard of. So these two would be the winners from my perspective :notworthy1: :notworthy1: :notworthy1: :notworthy1: :notworthy1:

 

and I would be very happy to see some more pens from Max :puddle: :thumbup:

 

 

best regards

Michael

Never heard of a 135 - can you tell us more please. Not in any books or on your site or in any online search. I would like to see it and know more :happyberet:

 

thanks

I concur with Stephen, we will all be the winners and we are ready to :notworthy1::notworthy1: the three, Axel, Max, and Michael ... So, please give us a little more... The 122 Malachite is certainly among the most impressive at this point but I have nothing against the "Rouge et Noir's" or the Sarastro Overlay and, and... I will be coming often for more

Regards, Ariel

I have a 235 but I did not hear about a 135 before.

 

Here is what my search came up with; at least a little reference:

Lovely pen so far!

 

I really like the shown MB 138 with the engraved cap band and clip. Also the black and pearl 40 looks very nice. Is the #35 correct or would it need a #40 nib originally?

 

 

Also I'm really looking forward to some of Axel's. Michael's and Max's treasures.

 

Cheers

 

Michael

      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..
    • A Smug Dill
      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
