Daily kit ranges from a single ballpoint such as the Montblanc Starwalker to a multi-piece leather case (e.g. Sienna or a classic three-piece Montblanc case) with fountain pen, ballpoint and mechanical pencil. Frequently mentioned combinations are 146 with 164, 147 Traveller with Classique models or a 146P with 164P plus pencil with Faber-Castell push-on eraser. For meetings some collectors deliberately switch to rollerball or ballpoint to avoid a cartridge or ink change. Valuable and larger models are regularly transported in a leather case to avoid pressure marks and contact scratches; heavy writers rotate their daily selection weekly to keep the collection in motion. Transport in open trouser pockets is, due to risk of damage and ink stains, advised against by experienced collectors.
