Staples Sigma Genesis


MissChief

Recommended Posts

A few weeks ago, I bought myself a pen, roller ball, and fountain pen set at Staples. I found out later that is the Sigma Genesis. It takes a short cartridge with room in the barrel for another. What I wondering, and haven't been able to find out, is whether or not there is a converter available for this pen or whether I'm doomed to using cartridges?

If it is an international cartridge, as it appears to be, and an additional fits in the pen behind the one installed, it would very likely work fine with a standard international converter.

All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing.
Edmund Burke (1729 - 1797)

Try a converter off one of your other pens. I bet you'll find it works. Just don't be too forceful in case I'm wrong

If you can fit two cartridges in there back to back then it will fit a an international converter

Thanks all! That's just what I was hoping to hear!

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..

      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
