I am going to buy a few more pens.
Buying only metal - which could be meta/steel, sterling, gold o solid gold.
Is solid 18 k good? Or too soft?
As far as I know Montblanc Full Size should be No 1.
Maybe I will buy a 146 or 149 in sterling or solid gold (if price is good enough)
Was offered a solid white gold foutain and ball point asked price € 3,000 - but they are noblesse.
I think it they are striped noblese - they are slim, star is flat on flat cap. Ballpoint
has strange system as you lift a button on the clip and then pull down
But I mainly want the full size.
I have and like - Parker 61, Parker 75, Cross is OK but very fine nib, Sheaffer Targa is Lovely.
Like the Rotring octaton (or is it six) - Love my Parker 180 - think I listed all now.
NOW TO THE REAL Qs
Which are the best as a writing instrument (few matters taken to cost) - I mean a resin is the same as the sterling or solid
gold - as talking about nib and writing.
Thinking of buying a full size Montblanc in sterling (actually a 146 - should I choose something else)
And a Louise Carter (probably the model where the clips goes from the top - seems to be cheaper than Dandy/Pasha)
But how nice are they to write with?
Could think of a Graf Faber Castell as well
Could also think of Dunhill, but how good are they
Could also think of Caran D'Ache - but doubful of what I will get as they look the same but MSRP price range differs
CD will be in Sterling
Shall I give an offer on the pair of White Gold slim MBs - what is the used value? How old are they - think they are quite a bit?
Can I hope these will be valuable - don't see pens as an investment but solid gold I see a bit and as they are exempensiv I
don't want to lose money.
I am open for ideas in the range of € 200-300 and max € 500 - except for solid gold.
B T W I have seen David Oscarson IRL he is a Swedish decendant - but pens seems to be above the €500
