236 Has Arrived!


Raif79

Recommended Posts

The 234 1/2 Deluxe was made '52-54 only....a standard sized pen like the regular 234 1/2. Meisterstuck clip and a different cap band.

Semi-flex KOB....a writing nib, thinner than modern's B nibs.

 

The 236 looks medium-large; which was the size of the 146 back then also.

I'm jealous. I had a 236 for many years. It had a silky smooth nib and a "STOFHAAS" (German stationer) imprint on the cap. Sadly, I FedEx'ed it to a restorer a year ago and it never arrived. I got some money from FedEx but I miss that pen.

Yeah mine is a beauty. No imprints on mine other than the factory ones. My biggest fear is the loss of one in the mail. I haven't put it into daily rotation yet. It's inked up at home though. I have it filled with toffee brown. It holds a ton of ink.

      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
