My favorite pen. A Montblanc Le Grand (146) with an oblique broad nib.

Beautiful pen. Very nice macro shot, too. I'd like to get a Mont Blanc sometime soon, I recently got a Visconti and I feel like it's the natural progression.

Question, what do you do with the broad nib? I always get fine or extra fine since I basically use mine for work notes and I have small handwriting.

I'm a doctor in a country that still uses handwritten notes (like the stone age), and I use it to write my outpatient notes. It's very excessive, but a lot of fun!

Hey, what image hosting service did you use? I'm thinking imgur might have been the wrong choice for me.
