I also have a passion for fountain pens, but I use them and enjoy them, as I do my cameras. I don’t know if that makes me a collector of pens or not... I have about 20 and they get used, broken, repaired, and used some more. So I feel like a user, not a collector. And a happy one. A Cartier with a left-oblique nib filled with Waterman Florida Blue in the rotation at the moment. :-)
Oblique nibs are the best. I have a Montblanc Meisterstück Le Grande with an OBB nib and Iroshizuku Asa Gao (deeply blue) that I never get tired of (and it's the only Montblanc I actually like and still own). For day-to-day writing I'm currently using a Lamy 2000 stainless (great pen but leaks a little) and a Porsche Design Techflex, and for drawing nothing beats Pilot's EF falcon nibs in the metal bodies.
Have you tried the Iroshizuku inks? Pricey but absolutely sublime.
