Thank you for posting a handwriting sample.

The Montblanc Permanent Blue in your Platinum 146 looks terrific on the Clairefontaine paper.

Is the nib an F? Or possibly an M?

To see a note written in Leiden is a rare pleasure.

Oort, van der Waals, Einstein, and the incomparable Rembrandt van Rijn — Leiden is a global treasure.

Hello Tom,

Thank you for your reply.

The nib is an M.

Leiden is a beautiful city indeed, but sometimes it can be a bit boring. I really am looking forward to leave Leiden at the end of this year when I (hopefully) graduate from high school and I am going to study in Rotterdam.

MB 344G with B nib.

 

I wasn't expecting a beautiful stub nib (without flexing) and a very nice (effortless) flexible nib.

I purchased a vintage (1930) MB #40 recently. It was made in Germany and is made of black hard rubber. The nib is a medium and is a wet writer. I love this pen. It was completely restored by Osman Sumer.

Thank you and your #40 is quite special, especially when it's restored by Mr. Sumer.

I’m using my Exupery more and more and just find it to be a really good pen, built to last, and the fine nib is getting wetter and wetter (in a good way) now that I have had it six months.

 

Considering buying a spare, or maybe the LE...

And also little bit my Heritage 1914 if I need green ink and my Steinway 888 for the Leo Tolstoy ink.

My 146 is back in daily rotation for a month or so.

Ohhhhh. That makes me wish I could add the UNICEF to my gang of pens.

I also carry a Starwalker Fineliner on me whenever I am attending anything work related in case anyone needs a pen. I am NOT going to let anyone use the nib on my fountain pens

Agreed.

 

But the nib on the extra fine Artfineliner is really easy to snap when borrowed but the un-nibbed. Cheaper to fix with a new refill, but annoying and hard to find.
