They're just standard international cartridges.

Standard internationals. The pen has a system that "unplugs" the cartridge or converter when the barrel is unscrewed, so any time the barrel is removed, make sure the new cartridge or the converter is firmly plugged back into it.

 

Bizarre pen. I find it insanely comfortable though.

 

Good brands are J. Herbin, monteverde, nemosine, mont blanc, pelikan, and others. Avoid the cheapest ones you can find. Cheap ink makes for unpleasant writing.

Yeah, that orange piece of plastic that pops the cartridge out when you open it. I always removed those completely when I was using Rotring Coresl they could cause a messy situation. I bought a number of those quite a few years ago. This thread is making me think of digging them up and playing with one.

I liked them, mostly. They did tend to have baby bottom problems though .

 

And, yes they take both long and short international cartridges, to reinforce the information everyone has already given the OP.
