Fun User Grade pen - Made up from parts Basically a miss-matched cap & pen , but all Genuine Montblanc parts, 1940s/50s era , it is mechanically sound & ready to use. The pen has some honest wear, but is very straight & overall very clean with good shine, vivid black celluloid, the piston filler has a nylon piston and it has been lubricated & works very well , the cap threads on & posts well , clear blue see thru ink tank with good clarity, it is just under 5" capped and 5 & 7/8" posted. It has a good weight to it (see photos). There is no warp, no personal names, there is a tight cap lip crack as shown in photo #10 , but with care this should not be a problem, but it is there, it stops at the cap band, there is a clear white Star/splat OUTLINE on the cap, Perfect cap lip. The cap is marked "MONTBLANC" w/ the Mountain logo.The pocket clip is excellent , bright gold fill on the clip and tight cap bands, clean & sturdy pocket clip. Removable nib unit / threaded in - the nib unit has been ultrasonically cleaned for good ink flow. Very nice well preserved 14c Montblanc Nib , (PLEASE SEE THE NIB PHOTOS) a Nice smooth fine point (western fine, more like a medium on cheap paper), finer with a light hand, with Excellent Iridium tipping :- , nice line variation, going from Fine to 1.3mm possible with out over flexing, but I would stay at 1.1mm or lower for nib longevity, you will still have control for every day fine point writing with a light hand, When you want some line variation, it goes from a fine point to a wider line as shown with medium to heavier pressure, it has a nice easy soft feel. It will provide excellent line variation & expression.
Great , for doodling , sketching , or every day writing and/or expressive letter writing :- copperplate / Spencerian. The Paper is from a Rhodia Dotpad No.16, the dots are 5mm apart to help you gauge the line variation. The inks are Waterman South Sea Blue (inspired) , & Diamine Monaco Red.
