Green Soennecken.

Pen postman has already delivered two day before, but only today I can "play" with it. On the body "Soennecken" and nothing more. Pen identical shape, size and structure, as the schoolpen Soennecken S6.

The differences are just another imprints on the body and different nibs. School pen S6 burgundy has a steel nib with name S6. Green Soennecken has a solid 14 ct. gold nib.

Pen had a leaky piston, so I do a new cork seal.

I had to dismantle the pen, so the way all the interior items have been completely squeaky clean.

Screw the piston mechanism is brass, so solid.

Screw fastening the seal to the piston are plastic, but the plastic is of good quality.

I cut a slice of cork from a bottle of Portuguese Porto.

After taking in a cork slice of an appropriate diameter pinhole, clipped it to the piston slide.

Next it's just sandpaper. The closer to the target diameter of the cork seal, the finer paper.

You have to grind gently and sensitively, beige hurry. Finally I reached the assumed effect.

Now i must left only embed feed and nib.

Nib, quite small, but it is the brave!

There is no difference when he writes a gold or steel nib.

The only difference is that gold never corrodes.

      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
