I’m pretty sure that some of your steel is actually aluminium or chromed brass. I know you must be disappointed but I can relieve you from those usurpers ![]()
Ahh yes. Let’s just say ‘silver colored metal’ then. Doesn’t roll off the tongue the same though.
Great selection across the board!
What’s the second one?! So pretty ![]()
so so shiny. hurts my eyes

It is the Mitsubishi M3/M5-300. I’m looking for one in a reasonable price if anyone wants to do a trade or sell it.
Check with @DarkwingDuck to pick up a Pentel P1085. I believe his have the sticker designating it as being made of 18-8 Stainless Steel.
Yes, it’s the Mitsubishi M5-300 double knock.
Wow..! you even have a Protex.
That’s amazing![]()
Thank you! There are a few Pentel, Pilot, and Newmans that continue to elude me.
Also, I plan to share my etched steel collection at a later date, which I would say is my favorite sub-category, aesthetics-wise.
It’s honestly my favorite piece in my whole collection. There’s nothing else like it. I got really lucky that it was hiding in a bundle of other Pilots. I don’t think many people noticed it.
Thanks for the recommendation. It’s been on my radar. I originally passed it over early on in my collecting journey, but would like to add one to my collection now. Luckily it isn’t too rare or expensive.
