I have never seen that pen case on the Montblanc website. Just an idea, next time you do a product review video do it without the condiments in the background.

RIP the TWSBI

Interesting pen, thanks. Subscribed

I have the same one you do. For a nib that fine, it's exceptionally smooth. My only issue with it was with the threads on the body/section. It felt rough. It's cleared up some since. I suspect the threads weren't cut properly or cleaned up. The cap goes on perfectly.

Welcome back.

Love the pen case… what brand/model is it? Awesome video, and amazing fountain pen 😍

I was thinking about purchasing the same pen. Is it worth the money??

Writer’s Blood is my favorite ink. In my Lamy 2000 stainless <m> it makes up my favorite combo. It has no bad manners and the coolest name imaginable.

Pitty, sounds too stratchy. 😩😐 600 dollars for a stratchy pen. 🤦‍♂️

Which pelikan model is this?

Useful info. Thank you. I have a few Tactile Turns and just bought a Bastion as I like some of the Parker-style refills. I'm waiting for it to arrive so I can see what I think. I ordered some little things from Tactile Turn that will adapt their pens to use Parker refills so I want to try that. The Bastion will have a hard time taking over from the Tactile Turn for me as I like it very much. Thanks for your video.

Some tips from someone who actually used this stupid case: You do not have to open it to take the pen in or out and you can can „clip“ the cartridge protector over the cartridges, thus fully grabbing them - there no point to this, but if feels nice to do.

I love the 147, but the case that comes with it is totally pointless. It looks nice though.

hi, this might sound weird but i found your channel because i was browsing reviews on tactile turn pens... i bought a tactile knife, and loved it so much i looked into buying one of their pens to keep in my knife slip...anyways, long story short i watched your video and subscribed...i have a recommendation for your leather journals...there is a company out of BC, Canada named Popov leather, the only affiliation i have with them is they have beautiful hand made leather products and ive got a ton of their stuff...

Bought the same pen with the same color, filled it with the same ink. Cheers 😂.

what was the kon-peki/takesume recipe/ratio?

Just a few weeks ago I bought another Montblanc Traveler pen with the case. Just like you I was curious it was fake or not, because I did not see any metal ring around the star and the star was not alined. I was just searching on the internet if my one is original; or not. Because you mention that you had seen ones without the metal ring around the star, I directed my attention to the stars in the photos and noticed what you said. I had never noticed this before. These cases were made to protect 147 Traveler somewhere around 1993-1997, if I'm not mistaken. That is why they are hard. If you want, you can soften them with bitter almond oil, or almond oil.or cream.

1:52 "and here is the cute little face" Cat immediately looks up lol

That moonman c1, does it burp when eyedroppered or leaking to the cap as pictured?

I like your cat's expression as you are doing your video 😊

I am fond of the Lamy vista. Plus you can buy any nib type you fancy. Easy nib swapping action, great pen.

You don't support Amazon, and you plan to return it. Shameful.

omg this is so underrated thanks a lot for this!

Stop abusing the cat

I would have a nib grinder look at it. I've had this happen with some of my more expensive pens and a nib person can tune it and fix it.

Nice review. I bought these pens a couple of years ago and never enjoyed the “bolt” action. I will look into the colored pen you showed at the beginning. 😊

Archival is that its Ph neutral. Non Ph neutral inks and paper degrade over time. Go into your grandads library and pick out an old book. If it was made of pulp the paper will be yellow and brittle because the Ph of the paper is too low. It will kind of smell like almonds ;p

Did you find this red to be a good shade for your Christmas letters? I'm getting some soon for my December journaling ink set. From what I can tell, it will be on theme, but "strawberry" isn't exactly a name that conjures Christmas memories.

A2 is a copy of the older VP, I have a vintage old stock, new stock from the1970 import from Japan and so similar.

Nice writing sample -- the line width difference between the two "short"'s is incredible! Thanks for this video :)

Jinhao rocks.

I have the case with the snowflake surrounded in black without the silver ring, and it is also misaligned. My case is also very stiff and I feel like it will crack, which is why I never use it. I have another single pen case with the flap at the top and it too is very stiff. Another Montblanc case I don't use because I really feel it will crack to to the leather being so stiff.

The Jinhao is actually a very nice pen, in my experience the problem comes to quality control sometimes being inconsistent. I have 3 Jinhao 80s, two work great, the third has drying and flow issues. I've had my all black for a little more than a year and it's holding together very well.

Sorry but you are not very knowlegable about your ink.

Great explanation. I wonder how Ultem would fare with Baystate Blue? Oh, and my work truck for the ranch is a beater F-150. It might be older than you. :)

I like the colour

Do you use montblanc cartidges? And refill them?

Nice comparison. So, if I want the most contrast, I should go with the Montegrappa? It went on the paper black and seemed to dry that way.

Jack is indeed extremely professional.

I know you said you like that it has an EF but if that ever changes and you need saaaay a double stack architect for it? You know where to find meeee

I have both the Pilot VPs, and also the Majohn a1. Both great pens.

Same! I'm using this for work and for me it's been a reliable, smooth, fine writer 😃 Of all the pens, I use this the most. Functional, lightweight, and if I misplace it I won't be too mad about it. 😌

Short and sweet. I picked up a Pilot Decimo a few months ago and have been enjoying it. I had tried a Vanishing Point several years ago and it didn't do anything for me, so I am glad I gave the Decimo a shot. Thanks for the video!

Milo as a fountain pen sticker? Oh. I must have one of those. Also, this is not a boring video. EDC is interesting. I like your setup. Take care and I look forward to the next video.

Congrats on ur graduation!!

Interesting, thank you!

Congrats on your graduation! Enjoy some down time to decompress and thank you for another fun video. You showed me some inks I was curious about.

Constructive critique: I stopped watching at the 5 minute mark as you were still speaking about refills. My suggestion is that you work up a script before shooting the video, that way your presentation is not as wordy and may hold a viewers attention much better. Good luck, hope you have lots of success in the future.

Nice line up. Does Moonman call it the bent nib? It looks like a Fude nib. Good to see you back.

I did the same with my Brass and Steel Sports. Sold them and bought new ones about 8 months later.
