Since you accept that the general rule is that the fourth quarter is date coded with just the letter with no number/dot but you claim an exception for the 2000 - 2009 decades, it is very reasonable that you should provide an evidence for your claim rather than demanding the same for the generally accepted rule. Hope you would give that 'firm evidence' to establish the exception that you claim.

 

Regards.

 

I didn't accept the general rule whatever that is? I said the 4th quarter date codes used between 2000 -2009 also used a dot, I think I was quite specific :)

Also bear in mind the use of different Parker symbols in dfferent decades, e.g the sloping P and then the halo with the vertical arrow through the centre.

That is quite convincing. A Sonnet refresh version introduced in 2008. But pens being produced in the year preceding the year of introduction (in this case 2007) is understandable.

 

Thank you, ceejaybee.

      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
