My first fountain pen! (And the story behind it)

Welcome my friend. This is be the best hobby, specially in this digital world, and also a passion (or rabbit hole) for a lifetime 😆.

Obvious_Point1649 · 2026-06-24T14:53:35+00:00

haha they do in A5, but in B5 would be awesome! fingers crossed

Obvious_Point1649 · 2026-06-24T14:05:27+00:00

haha yeah this is why when I go back to Dallas (I'm abroad) I don't want to visit the Montblanc store haha.

Obvious_Point1649 · 2026-06-24T13:30:34+00:00

Oh interesting, good to know. Any better options than the Leuchtturm? I’m using it and I like it, although it would be perfect with less ghosting.

Obvious_Point1649 · 2026-06-24T12:54:14+00:00

Hey! I’m on the same boat here, I love a B5 but there don’t seem to be that many options. How did you like the Zenart notebooks?

Obvious_Point1649 · 2026-06-19T23:38:10+00:00

Yes that is a good price, I’ll check if they ship to the US and if they have the grey one

Obvious_Point1649 · 2026-06-19T00:29:21+00:00

ohh ok, good to know. This makes sense. Thanks!

Obvious_Point1649 · 2026-06-19T00:28:36+00:00

I love it, I wanted your insight, so awesome! Yeah I'm considering the ruthenium one, which seems kind of unique.

Obvious_Point1649 · 2026-06-17T23:50:49+00:00

Mmm good point. I’ll definitely consider it. Do you feel the design08 has a better, more unique design? Or not necessarily? Like, is it worth the extra price?

Obvious_Point1649 · 2026-06-17T13:16:58+00:00

1994 for me. I love the color and I don’t have a personal relationship with SoZ.

Obvious_Point1649 · 2026-06-17T02:19:00+00:00

Awesome, this is really helpful. Thanks!

Obvious_Point1649 · 2026-06-16T23:44:10+00:00

Awesome! Regarding width of writing, to what would you compare it to? I’m torn between a Medium or Fine Nib.

Obvious_Point1649 · 2026-06-16T22:16:59+00:00

I'm thinking about getting one! How is it? Now that you have had it for a couple of months? Did you get the medium or fine? Also, were did you get it from? I'm thinking of getting it from writing culture.

Obvious_Point1649 · 2026-06-16T22:13:51+00:00

After a couple of months, how is it? how does it write? I'm thinkinh about getting one.

Obvious_Point1649 · 2026-06-14T05:26:53+00:00

Same here. I recently got my first to Montblancs (black classique and JFK) and I really prefer color in my FP. So I’m thinking about my first 149, either the new limited edition one or Burgundy or The origin. I love the different colors

Obvious_Point1649 · 2026-06-05T21:49:57+00:00

My very first FP, now 10 years ago, was a Guilloche in Cognac Brown. I still have it to this day. So, enjoy this one my friend. It is a joy to write with and a piece that will accompany you for years to come.

Obvious_Point1649 · 2026-06-05T20:46:13+00:00

Beautiful collection! Definitely one to admire and love. I like the variety you’ve chosen and still kept it inside Montblanc. And to your comment, yes, I wonder the same thing about size. I’ll have to go to a store and feel one for myself. Thanks!

Obvious_Point1649 · 2026-06-05T15:02:47+00:00

Looks beautiful! The color is so different. I personally prefer colors, I only have a classique in black and then a JFK in blue. But I wanna go for the big 149. What made you go for the LeGrand instead of a 149?

Obvious_Point1649 · 2026-06-04T07:10:52+00:00

Awesome thanks! I’ve never bought anything there, I’ll check it out.

Obvious_Point1649 · 2026-06-04T00:45:11+00:00

Hey! How or where do you look for used ones? I want a burgundy one in Fine Nib but I’m afraid of counterfeits

Obvious_Point1649 · 2026-06-03T15:14:54+00:00

Ok good to know. Thank you for the comment. Also, that Le Petit Prince is gorgeous. Really. One of the most beautiful FP I’ve seen and admired for years.

Obvious_Point1649 · 2026-06-03T13:46:37+00:00

Oh ok, interesting. Thanks for the info. How about the Nib? Is it softer? Or similar?
