Need Help Identifying My New Purchases


Aposensei

Recommended Posts

Hello everyone! Today after visiting some antique shops, I purchased two new pens. They don't look that old since they are working with cartridges but I bought them because both of them are quite beautiful. The problem is that I don't know anything about them so I would appreciate some help.

 

First one:

The writing on the nib says Iridium point Germany. Behind the nib it has the letter J (size maybe?). I can't understand the writing on the barrel of the pen. It is F. Ksomething... I think the most helpful is the logo (if it is a logo) on the cap (3rd picture). The pen takes cartridges, not international though. It came with an unused cartridge which is full of dried ink. Any advice on how to clean the dried ink from the cartridge?

 

Second pen:

The writing on the nib is the same with the first one: Iridium point Germany. Again behind the nib there is the letter J. This may be more challenging because there is no inscription on the pen. The pen takes international cartridges. I tested it works fine, wet and smooth.
Any help appreciated!

Two nice Nonamis. They really aren't any brand.

 

Well, I would easily believe that for the second one. But the first one has something written on it, something like a logo on the cap and it doesn't take international cartridges so that leads me tot think that is something more specific.

Get a hypodermic syringe and inject distilled water into the cartridge, shake it and then insert it in the pen and write with it until it is all gone.

Thanks! That helped!

      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
