Wha is the Blue lacquered pen with silver trinnings? It's not a Proust.

Today... Proust with fine nib and MP4 with a super wet medium...

Yes, the width of the line is perfect. It still allows shading, moreso it seems on the bottom half of the characters, but still is fine enough to allow formation of 'e' and other similar letters when I write small, but not too fine as to be toothy or without character.

Glad it turned out well.

Enjoy! :thumbup:

the 1985 MB149 filled with sailor grey, shaeffer grey, waterman black and omas grey ink.

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

Today wore a MB Star Chrono, accurate as always, and wrote notes all day at work with a 80s 146 with a sweet 0.6mm stub & MB royale blue.

Two trusty companions that made a hard day a bit nicer. :happyberet:

Bugmd, If you get the chance, please post a photo of your Platinum facet Solitaire in the Solitaire thread.

      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
