I now have reproduction cap jewels for the transitional J series. These are the 2nd generation version, as the toaster top for generation 1 was not going to be feasible. These will fit any of the transitional clips, as far a I know.

You have done some very good things for these pens.

Those are stunning! These can conserve and put many pens back into service. There are a lot that get relegated to the drawer for parts, and these jewels could get them back out there again.

That was pretty much why I did this. I have them for sale on eBay:

Any chance of getting a "toaster" jewel? I have one that is a bit chewed up.

As I stated above, the toaster top jewels were simply not feasible. These can serve as a substitute, if no other can be found.

Thanks for the super quick response. I must have missed that info in my reading.

      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..

      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
