I must admit I have quite a number of them…😉
My collection concentrates in three parts:
- vintage pens with incredible nibs like Wahl Eversharp, Waterman 51, Parker 51, Mabie Todd Swan…
- some very selected Montblanc Limited Editions like Hemingway, Marcel Proust, Lorenzo de Medici, and iconic vintage ones like 134, 136, 138 ! They are truly amazing
- and a nice collection of Namiki pens with some Yukari, Yukari Royale, and few incredible Empereurs
I enjoy them tremendously

You might be right Patrick 😉👍
As for me I keep writing and deliberately do not use my laptop only. 99% of the time I use fountain pens when I write and I enjoy it always as much as looking at my watch instead of reading the time 😉
I do too!
I enjoy writing hand written letters. And I enjoy fine stationary. In Italy, I'm still constantly searching for fine paper stores. And I use all the hotel stationary when I stay at nice hotels. The Japanese hotels have very thin paper, doesn't always work...

Love that —
My pen collecting days began with a Cross Townsend 30 or so years ago. I have gone through several phases — vintage, Pelikan, vintage Pelikan, etc. Montblanc forms the corpus of my collection today, and I have also representatives of several major pen hou...
You are obviously almost as sick (of pens 😉) as I am
I obviously did not mention all in my list… Having some Pelikan in the stable is a must. I have a nice vintage tortoise and a Toledo M910. But for a number of reasons the ones that make my heart beat faster than others are my Namiki’s… Since we seem to ha...
