As you all know by now I love my MB carbon and steel FP......however for some God-unknown reason, my company is starting to use a lot of carbon copies...so the FP is all but useless on them. I decided that I needed a ballpoint for these, and a normal Bic wouldn't be fitting in my shirt pocket. So I took a little ride to the MB store in a local mall today and picked up a beater, of sorts. A Black resin Meisterstuck Ballpoint with the Platinum plated hardware. I was going to get a starwalker, but it looked funny sitting in my pocket next to the FP, the BP matches up pretty well.

I'm pretty happy with it, it's a ballpoint, you really can't mess that up. It's lightweight and feels good in the hand, the twist mechanism is very smooth. So for a workhorse it's not too shabby...here's a pic of it...and one with the FP.

Again sorry for the lousy pic....camera phone at work.....

Justin, congrats.

That's a classic MB BP.

Can't go wrong.

Thanks guys....I definitely prefer the FP, but for the new task at hand it's working out pretty well.

MB with plat trim really looks very nice! Congrats mate!

Nice pair, Justin, congrats.

I have had that same MB ballpoint in my pocket for the last 11 years and it still looks new...

Great choice

Justin, you sure can't go wrong with buying and using MontBlanc writing instruments. They are great pens to have and own and go with any type of work load!!!

East Bay Rider · 18 May 2010, 12:08 PM

I like it. Good choice.

gelshocker · 18 May 2010, 02:18 PM

Very nice pair! Congrats

TattooedGQ · 18 May 2010, 03:18 PM

Thanks guys......after using it for the better half of the work day I'm starting to really like it.

I still think this forum contributes to me spending waaay too much money.....something tells me that I'm not the only one with this problem. hahaha
