Montblanc starwalker extreme vs urban speed
I've been able to find either of these two in a fountain pen for about the same price on super sale and I'm kind of thinking about pulling the trigger on one. Does anyone here have one or the other? Both? I'm looking at a medium nib. What do you guys think of these two models? I'm leaning to the extreme because I think it's a better deal vs retail right now

Well I guess I no longer have the problem of not having a Montblanc fountain pen. I just put in for a new starwalker extreme. The price was almost embarrassingly low. Kind of feel a little guilty actually.......nah!!

That's absolutely true. I'm already addicted! I have two fountain pens coming next week. A Visconti and a Montblanc. Really looking forward to both of them. The Visconti nib I already have in 14kt and it's a great nib but it's a last production run Michelangelo with bronze trim, not plated gold, and the older 14kt nib. The Montblanc is a 14kt as well but the only reference I have to that is the 18kt Montblanc made nib on my montegrappa. Can't wait to see how the 14kt Montblanc runs! I'm thinking it's going to be a good daily driver. Also picked up a Visconti ink well last week too. Seriously this is a very addicting interest! Almost as bad as watches but more affordable.
