Yes, you could write with a Bic, or even a Pentel rollerball. But you'd be missing out on one of the most sensual, traditional, and satisfying ways to put words to paper. If you have a fountain pen, grab it and start writing. There's nothing that comes close.

Mont Blanc Nib

 

Mont Blanc Solitaire 144 (Sterling Silver, standard finish)

Mont Blanc Solitaire 144 (Sterling Silver, barley finish)Starting with a Mont Blanc 32 bought in Germany in 1973, I've slowly built up my collection. From there, there was no going back: several more Mont Blancs, Parkers -- including the famous Model 51, considered the best pen ever mass-produced -- Scheaffer, Waterman, Pelikan, and Lamy. Some of my pens:

  • Mont Blanc 32
  • Mont Blanc 320
  • Mont Blanc 149 Meisterstück
  • Mont Blanc 146 Meisterstück
  • Parker 51 (two, in perfect condition)
  • Parker 45
  • Mont Blanc 144 Meisterstück, sterling silver with barley finish (closeup at left)
  • Pelikan (several models)
