I stopped by at the local Mont Blanc boutique to pick up a bottle of ink, and was asked to try several of their demo pens. I think they just wanted to see how a a lefty wrote with a fountain pen after they saw me sign the receipt with their Mont Blanc ball point demo. I'm sure it wasn't a sales pitch .
Started with the medium nib - nice. Fine nib, a little scratchy. Extra fine - quite scratchy. Bold - nice and wet. I didn't even try the caligraphy nibs.
I didn't find it to write any better than the Berea roundtop kit with medium stock nib. It was lighter weight and better balanced, but it didn't write any better.
Nice pen, but I think I'll spend my money on pen parts and pieces instead.
