A Beatles OBB sounds like great fun!

If you've inked it, does it write well for you?

I just took out my Mont Blanc 149 with an EF nib which I had not used in over a month. It started up immediately. A smooth wet writer. Outstanding pen!

My 1991 146, made in West Germany. I really like this pen!

Never argue with drunks or crazy people.

I am fairy new to the fountain pen world (bought my first one this year) so I am definitely still experimenting. I really love my MB 149 so far! I also bought a Writer's Edition Charles Dickens and it is a wonderful pen too. The big cap seems awkward at first, but when posted it gives the pen really nice weight. Good stuff!

MB 144 Bordeaux medium bought in 1983. Still wonderful.

That Blue Hour is the most wonderful looking pen imaginable!

 

Today for me a simple 149 with a wonderfully smooth Masuyama tuned nib.

Two Visconti stubs and my Blue Hour.

 

Those pens are awesome, how do you carry those beasts? I usually carry two pens since I like to travel light with a two pen leather pen pouch.

 

Great photo by the way, I enjoy your posts very much.

Thank you! I have a 3 pen Delta Markario leather pen case I use around the house. The Blue Hour never leaves the house, so a 2 pen version of the case works fine for travel. Slide that in my purse or computer bag and I’m good.

I have this smallish MB I bought in the late 90s. I'm not sure what kind it is. Re-discovering fountain pens, I've found that it's a bit too small for my hands, but it writes really well.

      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
