PELIKAN SCHOOL PEN


FP Writing

Recommended Posts

Hello

:rolleyes: find a bit of time to do this short review of the 140.

It was in my rotation for quite a few years now. This 140 has a short hand nib, quite flexy to a certain extent.

Though a small pen, it is to every degree a perfect performer for what a pen suppose to be.

Nice work, amazing pen. I however doubt that these were issued in many schools since the Pelikan 140 cost in the early 1960s in finland over 2300 fin marks which is roughly 380€ :o

How flexible, really, is the nib for this pen? I see a seller online naming this as a flexible nib. Is it as flexible or even more flexible than say a Pilot Custom 742 Falcon nib? Or is this Pelikan really only semiflexible?

The pelikan has a few tyes of nib. Vintage nibs to me experience is more to the wet side.

This EF nib is comparable to the 742 Pilot custom. So i can consider this as flexible nib. But again, the 140 can come with different nib types.s
