I am not a fan of boxes. If it were up to me, all pens with could in the metal Montegrappa tube (similar to a cigar tube) as they do the job and don't needlessly waste space.
Thank you! Ah that could be. I can't imagine paying 1600 USD to have this nib! They do so many more interesting and unique nibs with their bespoke program.
I have the pen (silver trim) with an OBB nib. I’ll always keep it. Really charming and differently cool companion to my 146 and 149. But I’d definitely love to have this nib, too.
@ Yea, you’re correct. I feel the same, no question. This S nib is a kind of novelty that is usable and fun. The OBB, if you get the hang of it, is a distinct and rather lovely writer, even for daily use.
Thank you! Didn't know about "s" nibs on Montblancs. It must use up the ink in the converter very quickly! As for being showy, I disagree. I love Montblancs precisely because they are to my eyes sober, classic, mature-looking. The big negative however is their price--excessive and still rising.
As a lover of Montblanc I must say I like that one, but I think I'll hold out for a 149, maybe a Great Gatsby. As a watch collector also I noticed yours, what are you wearing in this video?
Using the other side of the nib often creates a much thinner stroke, which can be useful in various situations, such as performing calculations or annotating text. Instead of reaching for a different pen to add a subscriptₗᵢₖₑ ₜₕᵢₛ or superscriptᵒʳ ˡᶦᵏᵉ ᵗʰᶦˢ, you can simply use the one already in your hand.
@@richardzak2140 To be honest, it’s not always clear why reviewers perform certain checks. Often, it seems they focus on specific aspects merely to follow the crowd. For instance, they might state that a pen cannot be converted for eyedropper filling, even though I haven't observed them applying this standard to any of their own pens. It often feels like these comments are made just to give the review a sense of completeness.
It's like two pens in one, with different line widths. Could be handy, depending on what you are writing. I guarantee it is very handy when drawing, e.g. for small details. I do it regularly.
To get a thinner line. Some nibs are specifically designed to be written with both sides. I do it in a pinch sometimes but really it is more of a curiosity for me.
I have that pen with a medium nib. It says West Germany on it. Unfortunately I broke it when I had it in my pants pocket and sat down and heard it crack. Yea, destroyed :(.

“I don’t do boxes, that’s boring.” 😂 Love the blunt honesty.

@@BlakesBroadcast That does sound both more practical and aesthetically pleasing.
Great job Blake. The nib seem very interesting!
I think you can order a ball style nib now, but it is a costly bespoke option over 1600 USD!!
Thank you!

Indeed! An interesting nib! Thanks.
You’re welcome!
I didn't know the Montblanc Mozart was a metal pen. I'll have to check it out. Thanks.
Yeah it's a cool little pen. Id like to have one at some point.
What a cool nib. Somebody please convince Jinhao to start making them. Thanks for the show.
I would love for more brands to make nibs like this. Nib meisters would be so happy.

It's a fun nib. The OBB is probably better for everyday writing though.

I agree with you that the design is classic and conservative.

Answer me this, please. Why do fountain pen users try to reverse writing?

@thorhilda thanks for your answer. I did not know or have heard anyone state why they did this.

I don't know but if I had to guess the S is for sign or signature
That could be.

Dang...
I am sorry to hear that. I closed my much loved 149 OBB in a drawer a couple of years ago. Montblanc was able to fix it.
