 Montblanc
On being completely filled (with the recommended Montblanc fl ink -- yuck), the pen had a bad habit of sweating ink all over the section and the inside of the cap; thereby creating the dreaded Montblanc ink bomb.

I assume that Montblanc pulled off this trick by balancing the metal in the body of the pen with that in the cap.

Montblanc's own packaging is mostly fl with the company's trademark white-star inset in the background, whereas the Penatia package is white.
