Clipper "AIR-FLOW"

Recommended Posts

Clipper was one of the brands of pens made by Mhatre pens and plastics in Mumbai, India. Mhatre used to manufacture various pens under license e.g. the Watermans 63, Swan etc.

 

I found this AIR FLOW model this weekend, it is a nice squeeze filler with a stylish clip (Eversharp?)

Hari,

 

thank you for another great Indian pen. You should think about posting some of this in Pen History. You are probably the only person I have seen on the net working on collecting and documenting vintage Indian pens and it is very, very appreciated.

 

You might even think about doing an article - I am sure that the Pennant or WES magazine would be interested in it.

 

Great stuff!

 

John

So if you have a lot of ink,

You should get a Yink, I think.

Always looking for pens by Baird-North, Charles Ingersoll, and nibs marked "CHI"

Hari, I add my voice to the others! Thanks for doing these detailed careful reports - you're making a previously unexplored area very interesting to a lot of us here.

      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
