Intrusive Clips

Recommended Posts

I'm looking for two intrusive clips. One for a Waterman glass cartridge pen (4 prongs). Another for a fancy Dutch pen resembling a Parkette. Here only two prongs are needed.

I think that your bigger problem will be attaching the clips to the cap.

 

The plastic that the tabs wrap around have ripped out. My experience has been that you can not repair.replace the ripped out material, and that if you did the clip would rip it out again even if the piece was solvent welded in. Because the tabs were meant to be folded over inside the clip it doesn't reach down inside far enough to put a bar through the tabs to catch on each side.... and the inner cap would hit it if you tried.

Thanks, that's true for the Waterman's.

For the other one it seems ok to put it in and fold inside.

I have been studying an Aska Swiss pen that is quite similar but smaller (even the strange celluloid, the short window and the intrusive clip). The pen is ok and writes well after cleaning and replacing the sac. The nib is impressive and ultrafine. With a clip I would dare using it on campus.

it is an awkward design pen.

      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
