Received this today. What a NICE pen! The heavy gold-plated cap gives it a very nice balance. The older, all-plastic Skyline I have does not stand up well in comparison, but it's still nice.

 

Can someone tell me what Eversharp means by "long cartridge"? Do they mean a Parker, or is there a long international that they are referring to?

Hi,

 

It is probably a Parker. Parker got the cartridge pen design from Eversharp.

Stolen: Aurora Optima Demonstrator Red ends Medium nib. Serial number 1216 and Aurora 98 Cartridge/Converter Black bark finish (Archivi Storici) with gold cap. Reward if found. Please contact me if you have seen these pens.

Please send vial orders and other messages to fpninkvials funny-round-mark-thing gmail strange-mark-thing com. My shop is open once again if you need help with your pen.

Will someone with the name of "Jay" who emailed me through the email system provide me an email address? There was no email address provided, so I can't write back.

The long Eversharp cartridge is identical to the Parker cartridge... on late 60's Parker cartridges they even state that they fit Parker and Eversharp pens since Eversharp had been bought up by Parker.

Well, good, I think I may stick a cartridge in this one and take it to work. It writes very smoothly, and has a beautiful engraved two-tone nib.

As a new/current pen, I don't feel any need to keep it pristine. And it is very classy in a retro sort of way. :D

 

 

Nope, no sale. The O.D. and I.D. on the Parker cart is much larger than on the converter and will not fit. The converter looks much like the one I got for my newer Waterman and the ones in the other 3 newer pens I have. Curious.....

      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
