The nib is a tribute to Sheaffer's conical Triumph nib. I have a couple of those WS. Unusual look, not bad for the price.

My latest ebook.   And not just for Halloween!
 

My other pen is a Montblanc.

I bought a Wing Sung 234 (with similar nib) a few years ago for very little on eBay. Good writer.

Indeed. 233 results for Wing Sung fountain pens and the 233 in maroon is the first result I get under best match.

In these FPs there are two varieties - one has fixed converter & other type has detachable converter.

I put my savings to test

Lamy & Pilot FPs the Best

No more I even think of the rest

(Preference Fine and Extra Fine Nibs)

Pen is meant for writing - not for looking :-)

hi irfan,

 

did you try this?? This seems similar to 233 but is flashier (probably a lil expensive as well)

Also, try getting from china directly...seems like a decent price but might take longer to ship.

@ Ifrandoc, most likely you are looking for Wing Sung 233, because that was the most common in our school days. For your information thee are two variants as follows:

a) One with stainless steel cap- the nib is all gold colour.

B) Other with Gold plated aluminum cap- the nib is two tone chrome and gold.

At Kolkata you can get this pen with Calcutta Pen hospital, cost comes rs 250 to 500 depending on condition. I have also found parts with this vendor. Person name Mr. Riyaz Ali.. Phone 98310088650. You can speak to him and place your order, I am sure they can arrange. Good luck.

I am willing to buy this model, looks attractive. But I am getting only the golden-capped ones on eba.in as well as on amazon. Does the golden colour fades away after time passes?

I bought one from ebay earlier - but the nib seems too stiff and fine + scratchy

      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
