A couple of new acquisitions:

MB 146 Silvery Barley - I think it's a 1990's version. It's got a F nib and is a very dry writer. Ink flow is very restricted. Good for wet inks like Watermans.

MB 146 Green straited - this is an early 1950's version, the barrel shows a bit of ambering but it comes with a very interesting wet noodle nib. Note the nib is "bent" upwards. I think the nib has been retipped over the years.
