I would love the black one, but of course it will always be out of my price range.

In order to appreciate the sweet, you must truly taste the bitter....

17k for a pen that's almost 90% made out of plastic? Although I agree both pens look stunning, I believe they have lost all touch with reality at Montblanc.

Entirely agree with this sentiment. The prices are beyond astronomical: they are absurd! On the other hand, both pens are lovely!

Wonderful, thank you for posting these glorious images! These are of course, in a far different price range, but it makes me love the Heritage 1912 even more - so much that I may hope for a broad nib version.

Love to see the comparison shots...but wow, the price! :yikes:

 

I'm still saving for an Agatha.

 

Ah the Agatha.. thanks for paying my attention to that! It does carry some similarities with the Heritage collection doesn't it? ;)

Some people don't know what else to do with their money quantity. Wanting another (expensive) pen is probably a (mind) disease.

 

I must say.. this post is too judgemental and disturbing.

Only for you if you take it seriously.

Not for me, but think others might find it offensive implying that they're 'diseased' just because you think so and judging their lifestyle choices.

 

A person making $60-80k a year buying a $1k pen has more to ponder than folks who might be making $500K+ a year buying a $10k item. They may be putting lots more to good use and not necessarily 'clueless' as you suggest :)

Why are you concerned about others?

 

I bought too many pens myself and suffer from having a "mind disease" :)

Happy?

I hate MB's (only have two in my collection and stupid to use the word hate), but that orange one is just incredible!!

 

I shudder to think what the cost is....

      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
