I've got dozens of Montblancs...

I don't think I've ever even tried writing with a Montegrappa. I tried an S.T. Dupont, nib was too firm. Montblanc's nib is still not flexible enough and the Montblancs are a little dry. Would love to give Pelikan a try, they supposedly run a little wetter.
I recently procured the Montblanc Borghese 4810 Patron limited edition. I really like the modern look of it.
I still use a fountain almost every day. I have a basic Legrand 146 pen on my desk. Fountain pens require some maintenance and care, so it's not worth having so many not being utilized. They dry up, they need to be cleaned, refilled, polished... Lots of trouble.
