P36 Jazz

Recommended Posts

Recently I bought this set of the Pelikan Jazz in the Elegance version. It's the only one with fountain pen and ballpoint pen. (There are many different colours of ballpoint pens of this model available.)

 

It comes in a simple Pelikan blue cardboard box.

Both pens are made of metal with a matte black finish and chrome accents. The ballpoint has a twist mechanism.

The clip is spring loaded and has a wide opening angle. So it will easily slide over thicker fabric like coat or jeans pockets.

The fountain pen has a pull-off cap. The grip section is shaped and a bit narrow.

The nib is smooth and not too hard, providing a bit of line variation. There is no width indication on the nib itself. Only on the package it says M nib (which is the only nib available for this pen.) At the first glace it looks like a M200-nib but it's different. It st shorter and it's wider as the P99-nib either. (c.f. picture Pelikan steel nibs P36 - P99 - M200 - P459 - P360) I presume it's the same nib as in the Stola III which I don't have for comparison.

I paid ~13€ (instead of 20€) which is a very good price for this nice set. :)

Thanks for the review. I bought a white one and it came without a cartridge converter. An international-sized converter is too big to fit. The pen is made fairly well, the nib is nothing to write home about. In general it seems like a typical Chinese pen to me. I'd *much* rather have a Wing Sung 601 or 699.

I have a white one, gave the black one away. It is a nice budget friendly pen. I have yet to find a converter that fits. This far I have been using Pelikan 4001 cartridges that came with it.

I have a black one on the countertop right now, but I flushed the blue cartridge that came with it and refilled it with a better blue. Nice small pen when it has real ink in it rather than the anemic ink it ships with.

      Oh to have that translucent pink Prera! @migo984 has the Oeste series named after birds. There is a pink one, so I’m assuming Este is the same pen as Oeste.    Excellent haul. I have some Uniball One P pens. Do you like to use them? I like them enough, but don’t use them too much yet.    Do you or your wife use Travelers Notebooks? Seeing you were at Kyoto, I thought of them as there is a store there.

      It's not nearly so thick that I feel it comprises my fine-grained control, the way I feel about the Cross Peerless 125 or some of the high-end TACCIA Urushi pens with cigar-shaped bodies and 18K gold nibs. Why would you expect me or anyone else to make explicit mention of it, if it isn't a travesty or such a disappointment that an owner of the pen would want to bring it to the attention of his/her peers so that they could “learn from his/her mistake” without paying the price?

      Why nobody says that the section of Tuzu besides triangular shape is quite thick. Honestly it’s the thickest one among my many pens, other thick I own is Noodler’s Ahab. Because of that fat section I feel more control and my handwriting has improved. I can’t say it’s comfortable or uncomfortable, but needs a moment to accommodate. It’s funny because my school years are long over. Besides this pen had horrible F nib. Tines were perfectly aligned but it was so scratchy on left stroke that collecte

      Awesome! I'm in the process of preparing my bag for our pen meet this weekend and I literally have none of the items you mention!! I'll see if I can find one or two!

      @asota -- Yeah, I think I have a few rolls in my fridge that are probably 20-30 years old at this point (don't remember now if they are B&W or color film) and don't even really know where to get the film processed, once the drive through kiosks went away....  I just did a quick Google search and (in theory) there was a place the next town over from me -- but got a 404 error message when I tried to click on the link....  Ruth Morrisson aka inkstainedruth
