Montegrappa Mille Miglia FP

[tcheuchter]

Your pens are insanely beautiful mate.

Good morning! What nib size do you use on your different Montegrappa? I personally use a M nib on my Euro 2002 LE and find it a bit wide, but somebody told me that the F nib was much smaller than the M and would have been scratchy according to my writing style (normal). What do you think? Thanks!

Most of mine are mediums or fines, though my Extra 1930s have a broad and a Binder oblique italic. In any case, I prefer the broad nibs and generally don't use fine nibs. But the Montegrappa fines I have are pretty nice. They're not a lot thinner than the medium nibs but they're smooth and show good line variation. I don't find them scratchy at all.

Ditto. Same impressions of my MG nibs.

Doug,

 

Dibs on this one when you tire of it.

 

Sorry Tom, I got it. You'll need to wait another few years for it to do another lap.

 

BTW - everything Doug said about it was true, if anything he understated.

 

Now for the OMAS and someday (dare I say it) the Cuervo y Sobrinos.

Great pen, I've seen just Ancora before with Mille Miglia theme on.

The Ancora Mille Miglia is truly beautiful.
