What Sheaffer Imperial Is This?

Here it is, with the pen & cartridge and a button converter. I haven't tried it yet, but I don't see why it wouldn't work.

So you have done it. Thumb up. It would definitely work.

 

Best.

Both of you have just voided your warranties. :doh:

 

What warranties? It is already no Sheaffer no warranties.

Obviously some people don't appreciate sarcasm.

Both you and your sarcasm are welcome. Take mine as sarcasm too.

Why, you prefer that best describes you? A word that has'genius' imbeded in it. Resourceful suffices. Again, salute to you for being resourceful in finding a solution.

The earlier pre - editing version was better. Lol.

As much as I would like it to stay, I find ingenious superflous. What is superflous, I find immoral. That's why I revised it. Lol.

I have one of these pens like the OP's. I tried the button converter, and it worked, but then the sac failed. At that point I started trying to resac the button converter, but left off for some reason. Maybe I'll try shortening a squeeze converter. These are nice writing pens. Shortening that squeeze converter was an inspiration, mitto.

 

I have nothing better to do, being retired. I was working with another Sheaffer that turned to have a plastic insert in the barrel that I removed with a small but long screwdriver. Then a piston converter worked, but I forget which pen it was. Probably a later Imperial. Too much stuff, but there is always a challenge.

Thank you pajaro. And same here. Nothing to do being retired. Sailing in the same boat. Lol.

      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
