Miko Masters 7000

[gioflowers]

I have a Miko Masters 70000 and have used it for several years. I love the pen. It feels great in my hand as I like the heavier pens. The nib is fine and does not skip or dry out. I posted details about this pen and how I came to own it years ago and received a few responses about possible origins. Today I found this web page :

with the exact pen and box that I received it in. However, I cannot read the page as it is in a foreign language. I am wondering if someone can translate some details for me.

1) what is the language

2) Who is the manufacturer

3) What year was the pen made

3) How much does it cost to purchase today

 

Any other information would be greatly appreciated as well. Thank you all very much for your help.

Try using the Google Chrome browser and their ability to translate pages. It has come in handy for me a couple of times.

Hi, first post here. I was intrigued by a very nice fountain pen having the "Renown MIKO" brand stamped on the cap clip. Must be made by the same MIKO company as the Miko masters since the nib has the same engraving with two seahorses and the MICRO (F) mark.

 

Tried to use Google Translate on the korean web blog and the only useful information that I could find this way was that the company went bankrupt in 1997.

 

My "Renown MIKO" pen was initially covered in a velvety green plastic that became sticky and ugly with time. I ended up by washing it all away with ethanol, which gave a nice black pen that is a pleasure to use.
