The 10 fountain pens I would keep if I could only keep 10...in no order
Share
There is another fun top 10 list popping around fountain pen circles....if you could only keep 10 pens which would you choose. It's a fun and pointless exercise since something very bad indeed would need to happen for me to only have 10 fountain pens!
So here we go...
- Pilot Vanishing Point LE Red Carbonesque, original nib switched out to a FM. A Pilot Vanishing Point is always my go to pen and I choose this one because it took me so long to track it down and complete my collection.
- Namiki Emperor MF Nib. I journal with this pen every day and the nib is divine.
- Pelikan M640 Eternal Ice Medium Nib. I sold it once and bought it back if that tells you anything.
- Montblanc 100 year 149 OF nib engraved with my granddaughters name.
- Waterman Edson Emerald Medium nib. Beautiful and writes so well, purchased as a set with the ballpoint pen.
- Sailor King Of Pen Mono No Aware Broad nib. The only Sailor in my collection.
- Montblanc Boheme (retractable) Green stone OM Nib. This is an oddball and I love it.
- Montblanc 149 EF nib. Walked into the Montblanc store in Dublin and as I was was browsing the pens I was asked if there was anything I was looking for...Assuming they would not stock this pen I flippantly said I would love a 149 with an EF nib if you have one. They had one.
- Pelikan M805 Ocean Swirl Fine nib. Gorgeous. Perfect size for long writing for me.
- Montblanc late 1950's 256G. One of the best nibs I have ever written with. Ever.
