Mont Blanc* and just sold my fine liner and rollerball, I had a starwalker fineliner, and the basic meisterstuck. But got sick of paying for refills and the clip broke on the starwalker which was outrageous to replace so I decided I’ll stick with pilot G2s.

Managed to get $55 for it with a broken clip lol �� pissed me off so much, never wanted to like something more but hated it so much.


There’s also a pen forum for this at the bottom of the forum menu

I've owned a Meisterstück Platinum-Coated LeGrand Rollerball for about ten years now and that's been my daily writer ever since. About a week ago I decided to get their Meisterstück Solitaire Blue Hour LeGrand Rollerball which is in metal and give that a go and at the same time ordered a Ballboint of the same pen. I've received the Ballpoint but I am still awaiting to receive the Rollerball.

I’ve got two LeGrand ballpoints. They fit my had better. One gold and one platinum. The broad top is smooth as silk to write with.

Yes but only one. MB refills are very inferior and are prone to skipping after a day or two of use and they run dry of ink quickly. Not to mention expensive.

Are you stuck on a rollerball?

If so I would go with a Pelikan. If not, you might want to try dipping your toes in the fountain pen world if you haven't already.

MB rollerball cartridges are trash. They skip. Can only be used on exquisite paper.

None of fine have so far, I only use medium point MB refills

I love roller balls, yes they are expensive to run but they are the best of both worlds between a fountain and a ball for everyday use.
