I also collect fountain pens. One indispensable tool is a pair of regular pliers with the jaws covered with rubber hose. You use them to remove the section from the barrel. (Part that holds the point from the big part.)
But for stubborn screws and nobs you don't want to mar they work great. You can put a lot of torque on the stuck nob and not mess it up.
