Did Sheaffer Ever Produce...?


EBUCKTHORN

Recommended Posts

Did Sheaffer make a pen that has all three of the following characteristics?

 

1. Body shape similar to a 330, 440, or Imperial II, either plastic or metal cap

 

2. Conical nib

 

3.Cartridge/converter fill

 

This would be my ideal Sheaffer but I am not aware of such a model. Thanks for your assistance.

...but this is a touchdown filler and not a C/C.

1) Sheaffer Stylist C/C pen with short conical/triumph nib.

 

2) Sheaffer C/C (new) Crest introduced in 1991. Again with a triumph/conical nib. But the stylist has more resemblence to the 440 and 300 pens.

Sheaffer Skirpsert Cartridge pens came in short conical nibs and also with the stylepoint. The Skripsert and Skripsert deluxe are excellent pens, ebonite feeds, typically wet, and both the 9.2k(?) gold nibs and the unhallmarked PdAg (?) nibs are great. These were also marketed as school pens and are, with the possible exception of the Nononsense, the best of all the early Sheaffer cartridge pens and are a bit larger than the "school" pens that followed. Deluxe had gold nib and gold clip and regular had all white metal.

Thanks everyone for the suggestions. I have several of the Stylist but want to get closer to the 330/440 shape. it looks as if I'll be pursuing a cartridge version of the Imperial III.

Both the Imperial 2 and Imperial 3 were released as cartridge versions.

 

And not the IV and VI? I think I have both these in cartridge version.

Thanks Teri and mitto. Teri-I have a at least couple of your Touchdown Imperial II Deluxe and they're fine pens but now I just have to look for c/c versions of the II, III, IV & VI. At least I now know that what I'm searching for exists.

 

By the way, the reason I'm seeking the c/c models is because i want a pen (in that size and shape with a conical nib) that i can pick up and quickly ascertain how much ink is left. As far as I can figure out, with the Touchdowns, even though they have substantial ink capacity, that's not possible.

      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
