This is Part Two (of three) of our honeymoon visit to Paradise Pen in Las Vegas.
In case you missed the news, the shop is closing at the end of the month. When we were there, it looked like they had lots of Montegrappa fountain pens left, some Montblanc, and a few Cross and assorted other brands. For inks, there was primarily Private Reserve and Pilot Iroshizuku. Other than paper in porfolios and Filofax, the only notebooks I saw were from Rhodia.
I came away with a stunning Montblanc 145 (its cousin is the piston-fill 146). For a graduation gift a few years ago, I gave Mr. P the Faber-Castell pencil set (because he’s a total math nerd)…
Since then, he’s had his eye on this…

I have to say, Mr. P does have good taste.
I love all of the details on this pen. The two-toned nib. The styling of the cap. Mr. P likes the thick threading of the cap (a detail that would have gone missed by me).
We were both a bit concerned about caring for the wood barrel of the pen, but after reading a bunch (after the purchase…haha), it turns out that it requires no special care and will develop a darker color with extended use.
The pen hasn’t been inked yet (still taking it easy and enjoying time together after the wedding), but I’ll definitely post about it when it is.
