MontBlanc 585


Mont Blanc 585
Color: Burgundy Material: Resin	Filler: Piston Date c. 1970	Nib: M 14K Working? Yes
My first MB, and an appropriate one for that. Known as the “economy” MontBlanc (as if!) this is still a very nice piece of writing equipment. Thirsty piston fill and a smooth 14K nib. The screaming blue visulated section is a little odd, but this seems to be a solid pen that will get its share of use.

Interesting Pen Links

Pen Sellers

Goulet Pens

NB: These guys are THE best in the business; their service, selection, and the interactive tools on their site are second to none. Check their blog for loads of info, how-to videos and more. (No affiliation, just a loyal and satisfied customer!)

Flameworked Glass Pens

NB: These craftsmen make magnificent glass dip pens. They are pricey, but flawless in their crafting and performance. Truly an heirloom quality glass pen. Well worth the price. Their service is also top notch, including repair of my pen when it was snapped by a user unfamiliar with glass pens. (No affiliation, but a happy customer.)
