Where To Find Parker Frontier Spare Nib?


bodobose

Recommended Posts

I live in Kolkata, India.

I have a Parker Frontier Matte Black fountain pen which has been a longtime favourite! Recently its nib got destroyed as it fell from my table . I do not want to buy a new one as this particular one has many fond memories attached to it. Will appreciate if anybody tells me how or where do I get a spare nib for this particular pen, preferrably in golden/dual colour?

You might also ask Dutchpen. Here's his classified listing for nib units: https://www.fountainpennetwork.com/forum/classifieds/item/33971-modern-pen-nibs-and-nib-units-renewed/

 

It includes:

Seeing that the indian frontiers retail for $8, it may not make sense to buy from outside India. Subbu_Asa(thats a nice addition) suggested the best option.

I checked with Luxor website. They have only spare Vector and Beta sections not for Frontier. I wanted to replace the nib for an old Sonnet we found in my in-laws' place that has similar nib but in vain.

Sonnet is a modern pen and its nib/nib sections are available. You may check with your local Parker dealer.

the sonnets we got are something like 10 plus years old and Sonnet nib units cost like £30. As Frontier Matt nibs fit the Sonnet (I have one and tried on Sonnet) I thought getting a nib in India would be cheaper as pen itself costs only INR 600 or so. Buying a couple of Frontier from Luxor with gold finish and discarding the pen after taking off the nibs is cheaper than original Sonnet nibs. Frontier nib is quite good as compared to my Insignia.

I think there is an exclusive Luxor showroom in South City Mall, Prince Anwar Shah Rd. Call and check.

 

Gem and Co, Chennai has spares, asking price Rs.250/- , you may call and check

 

Still, ask Luxor, I have seen spares.

      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
