Inoxcrom Corinthian Azul F

Recommended Posts

Thank you!

 

 

 

One thing that I have not tried to do is remove the nib. Is that a straight pull out, or screw out?

 

It appears that the nibs might be interchangeable with each other. Do you know if that is the case? Will other #6 nibs from other manufactures fit?

 

I have a total of 7 Inoxcrom pens including the Wall Street, Sirocco (brown and black) and Corinthian (black not blue). They are very solidly made, and feel quite comfortable in hand. I personally find the Sirocco one of the most comfortable in-hand pens that i have ever tried. It seems to have surpassed the feel of my decades old previous favorite: The Cross Townsend. And, it at least rivals the exceptional Leonardo Furore .

 

Here are my top three most comfortable pens to write with. My long time favorite Cross Townsend, a recent serious contender for top spot, the Leonardo Furore with it's innovative grip design in the amazing Blue Galaxy, and my current most comfortable writer, the Inoxcrom Sirocco. Over the years other contenders have included the Pelikan 805, several Conway Stewards and of course the super comfortable Parker 51.

The nibs are easy pull out, and they are #6 as size. I have remove the nibs in all 3 models to perform different adjustments.

On Corinthian the feed was bent down, in one Sirocco (I have 2) I have managed to bent one of the tines while screwing back the cap, and on my Wall Street the nib was bent so bad that I had changed with a JoWo #6.

Also I had acquired 3 converters from Beaufort ink (push, not screw) and worked perfect with Inoxcrom.

 

You have a great collection out there, I really like the Leonardo Furore, that blue is amazing!

 

I have 2 Sirocco pens, both have medium nibs, but one is writing with a finer line, and also I have find that is the most comfortable pen to write with. But the blue Corinthian is also comfortable and damn so pretty!!!

 

My next target is a Inoxcrom Caravel (aka Caravel 1, the size of Montblanc 146). The pens are rare, as far as I read Montblanc stopped Inoxcrom to made and sell them.

Great review, love the pics too. Never owned an Inoxchrome, although it becomes apparent to me that day is fast approaching :)

 

Thank you for posting these beautiful pens, lovely colors, real eye-candies. I guess I'll break the ice as it were, and purchase one. The Corinthian is something appealing.

 

Best, JT

The Inoxcrom Caravel I is authentic white elephant, very dificult to find one, is become a legendary pen.

Hi!

I have two Inoxcrom Corinthians, one blue and one black. I was looking for the blue one, but in the first moment I was only able to find the black one. Later I also got the blue Corinthian. And I also own a blue Diplomat, which Inoxcrom manufactured for this German brand. I found it at ebay.de

They all were bought as NOS.

I also own a Caravel 1, and a Caravel 2. They were bought as already used, but they are both in good shape.

The Caravel 1 is bigger than the MB 146 and smaller than the MB 149. Somewhere in between. And it is very comfortable for writing. The Caravel 2 size is closer to the MB 146.

I also have two Inoxcrom Siroccos and two Inoxcrom WallStreet.

They all take Jowo #6 nibs.

Inoxcrom also made a model called Andreas, which has the size and the nib of the Caravel 2. It is a peculiar nib, also made by Inoxcrom, but with no international equivalent. I own one Andreas with burgundy and black colours and one only in black. The burgundy one is very beautiful, something close to the blue Corinthian, at least for my taste.

I love them all. Sometimes the blue Corinthian is my favorite fountain pen (but I use the Diplomat version to keep the Inoxcrom one like new). Sometimes the Caravel 1 or the burgundy Andreas take the first place.
Greetings,

      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
