Finally tried a Montblanc 146 here’s what changed my mind

[!nkFlowJunk!e]

Montblanc pens never really did it for me. I'm usually all about Aurora, TWSBI, or Kaweco because of how they look and feel. I checked out some Montblancs at a pen show, and they were okay, but nothing special. Then, a friend gave me a used 146, and it clicked! The nib, the balance, it just feels so great.

It's funny how that happens, sometimes you don't get the hype until you actually live with it. The 146's got that smooth nib and perfect balance that sneaks up on you...now you're probably hooked.
