Need Help Identifying This Desk Pen

What particular model is it and is it a good pen? I'm not even sure what kind of filler it has... I'll upload more photos when I get the pen.

It is likely an Imperial of some sort.


The inlaid nib is a great writer. This pen will use a converter or a cartridge.


I used one on my desk for over 25 years and was always please with it.


Enjoy the pen.

Why carry one pen when four will do!

Likely to be a cartridge pen circa 1960's. Should write as fine as any other Sheaffer of the era. Not particularly valuable.

I bought two pens. One is a medium nib, the other is a fine nib. The line on paper is very very close but the Medium is noticeably smoother.

P6 (on the box) is the model number of the pen. It's listed in this 1973 Sheaffer catalog, but since yours was made by Sheaffer Eaton, it must date to 1976 or after.

It's listed price is $12.50 for just the pen which is...about 60 plus dollars today. Cool!

      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
