What MBs are you using today?

My old 144 warhorse M nib, Quink Blue

[sny]

Today I'm using a 149 from the early 90s (14k nib) filled with MB mystery black and a modern 146 in platinum version filled with MB oyster grey (both are B nibs).

A 2002 ubiquitous 149 with Toffee Brown.....

None... I left my pens at home by mistake Could someone please post a picture of a nice MB 146 OM to cheer me up?

 

edit: I'll just enjoy slowpoke2's posting, it even includes a 136

Still on my MB 246G with the most deliciously wet and characterful broad nib, carrying Mystery Black. With only a smidgen of ink to be seen through its fabulous ink window, I am hopeful the pen will last the day. Looking forward to giving the 246 its well deserved flush and soak tonight

 

Slowpoke2, love your MB 136 transitional. With that OB nib, you have chosen just the most perfect ink :clap1:

Inked are a 114R, a 139L, and a Torelli 139 in deep purple striated celluloid with white gold accoutrement. I'm watching the old 139 for seepage past my recently installed cork.

Iro Marasaki sure looks good with that feed and nib. It has looked a little washed out on some people's, but I saw it a couple places like yours where it has some very sophisticate pop to it.

Was playing with an MB 146 OM + Iroshizuku Asa-gao and an MB 244G EF + MB Black at home yesterday evening. (Parker 75 FP + BP today at work.)

Early start. Man 100 M nib, Florida Blue backed up with companion jotter F ( dammit should be M) blue refill; Parker 51 UK M broadish nib with blue black Quink, gold filled cap, burgandy barrel.

Sorry. Misread the topic. A Waterman is not a MB, but my 144 was on the desk, always inked an 11 year veteran. :bonk:

146 w/ wet broad nib & R.L. Stevenson ink.

Not a fountain pen, but it is a MB, on my computer I have a bordeaux classique ballpoint and black classique ballpoint along with a classic mechanical pencil.

I tend to use my mechanical pencil more than my fountain pens or ball pens. The MB pencil just fits in my hand. However the Sonnet and Insignia pencils I believe have a better mechanical operation.

This new arrival

The Carnegie sports a super broad stubbish and very wet nib. Fantastic pen. Nib needs to grow on me. Inked with Private Reserve DC Supershow Blue

I have a birthday coming up (well, not until next year) -- just in case anyone wants to get me one of those pens!
