A Montblanc Question And Introduction


mustekyna

Recommended Posts

hello

greetings from Finland. I call me mustekyna (fountain pen in finnish!)

 

I have a problem with my Montblanc 144

 

I bought a Montblanc from Germany (a used one) and noticed that the part in the pen end (marked yellow) has a crack.

post-147086-0-57299400-1545998318.jpg

 

So I would need this part to be changed. Then my daily friend would be in excellent condition. I asked for a price for this change and it was 200 € and I would need to send my fountain pen to Denmark. My pen is in wonderful condition and wrotes lovely and costed 240 €.

 

Am I able to change the end part? How do you call this part, in picture painted yellow?. Do you think I could find an old spare part, this part, somewhere.

 

best regards

mustekyna

Hello and Welcome to FPN!! Glad to have you as a member!!

The part in question is called a 'blind cap'. It should be available for much less that the amount you have listed. You might ask about sources over in the Montblanc subforum. Again welcome to FPN!

Hello and welcome to you. As Sir Pakman advises your enquiry will be sorted out very quickly in the Montblanc forum.

Hello! Welcome to the FPN :W2FPN: , regarding your Montblanc question, I suggest you to address it at the MontBlanc subforum. However, I think this video can give you an idea about how to disassemble your pen https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fJBIGZ2KAKM

Your video is about the 146 & 149, totally different critters. The 144 was a cartridge converter fountain pen.

Hello Mustekyna and welcome to FPN, from Cape Town, South Africa.

To sit at one's table on a sunny morning, with four clear hours of uninterruptible security, plenty of nice white paper, and a [fountain] pen - that is true happiness!

      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
