How do you like the M400 white tortoise? I just ordered one and it will be my first Pelikan - Instead of buying a M200 first as I originally planned, I went for this after seeing some pictures of it

They are beautiful pens. Look at my review here: http://fpgeeks.com/forum/showthread....written-Review The modern m400s don't hold as much as the vintage ones, but they are awesome low-maintenance pens. I use my White Tortoise at school every day. It is very comfortable and lasts me (as my brown/green ink pen) the whole week.

Interesting review
My White Tortoise arrived today, and I'm very happy with it, it writes wet and very smooth (a Fine nib), and looks really beautiful.

great to hear! My fine was great out of the box, but somehow got scratchy (it wasn't a case of tine misalignment) so I sent it off to a nib meister...it now writes more like a medium.

I now have 12, added two more over the holidays:

M250 Brown Tortoise (the Levenger issue)
M800 Green Stripes

It's addicting, I tell you!

It would be for me, if I had the money!

0 But it's not from a lack of wanting one (or two or many)

I love vintage Pelikans. But I really don't think I'd want more than 2 vintage 400s and 1 100n. They get really expensive past the basic colors!

[JustDaveyB]

I have 36 as of today, I got a M400 size to complete my set of Black/Green Striated and I have a M800 Tortoiseshell Brown on order.

Woah, nice!

[KrazyIvan]

No longer have the 140 (green stripe) and my M250 is missing from the shot. But starting from the white one, It's the M100, then an M200 and after that the M215 rings.

Current image of my Flock



Am still waiting on my M800 Tortoiseshell Brown - hopefully it will arrive this coming week.

[caribbean_skye]

Ooooh that's a lovely flock you have there JustDaveyB. Which pens are the following: blue one, top row, 5th from the right and greenish/yellowish demonstrator on the bottom row 6th from the right?

[JustDaveyB]

M600 Blue Demonstrator (same material as the more famous M800 Blue Ocean LE), M205 Yellow Demonstrator release a little while ago as a pack with a BB nib and a bottle of Pelikan Yellow highlighter ink.

The only answer to the original question is not enough!

[kwk1]

Just an M805 black for now.
