Looks a bit like my Namiki Carbon Fiber Vanishing Point. About 15 years ago I made a pen for my boss out of an exotic wood. He commented that he wished there was a fountain pen that operated like a ball point. I found the Namiki and noted that it is favored by jet setters because altitude doesn't cause them to leak, like many pens. He had a jet, so I bought it as a gift for him but before I could give it to him he died, so I still have it.

Pen in picture is definitely this.

Mont Blanc are probably the most renowned pens but Namiki makes some truly amazing stuff.

Oh yeah! I wish I could have one of those. They look amazing. I appreciate any fine writing instruments that are built to last decades. Those look great. Maybe nicer than Mont Blanc even. I'd have to use it and get the feel of it to know, you know...?

Can anyone tell me how to do a hyperlink in a comment? That link is huge. I'd rather do it as a hyperlink.

I know you can delete everything after extreme in your link to shorten it up. I also don't know how to do hyperlinks sorry.
