What owners say
If you want the size then go for it. The M1000 nib is definitely a different experience. You might also consider a Sailor KOP in B. It is softer than a 149 nib and has some pleasant (to many) feedback. Of tpu want cheaper and still good consider a Majohn P140. I'm impressed with the quality for price and it comes in solid colors now. r/fountainpens · 3 pts · thread

As an alternative if you don’t / can’t harvest a KoP nib, the M1000 nib works quite well, AND it’s available to purchase separately. I have M1000 nibs swapped into both a Gravitas Monster and an Asvine V800. r/fountainpens · 2 pts · thread
This is such a strange take. Are Montblanc 149, Pelikan m1000, etc not "good" pens? Are Graf von Faber-Castells with rare wood barrels just pieces of crap? Do we consider Ferris Wheel Press an elite pen manufacturer because they happen to use aluminium? And hey, I love ebonite too, but why is vulcanised rubber inherently > resins or durable acrylics? Again: weird take. r/fountainpens · 1 pts · thread
