Fosfor Sheaffer Pilot

[hari317]

 

Manoj Deshmukh of Fosfor Pens made this custom pen for me. http://www.fosforpens.com/about.html

 

I had purchased these vintage old stock Sheaffer Triumph nib units some years back from David Nishimura. However the nib units had 4 start 10tpi (40tpi effective) threads.

 

Manoj agreed to attempt using the nib unit on a pen for me. He was successful and here is the result.

 

 

Manoj used Black ebonite and a vintage clip.

 

 

 

 

I had requested the section be made to accept Pilot con 70 converter. Thus any modern Pilot converter or cartridge could be used on this pen. I chose pilot for their wide nozzle diameter which allows wonderful ink flow.

 

 

Currently I am using a very old Pilot Con B converter on the pen and the pen holds some 0.92ml ink in this configuration. The cap takes just 1-3/4 turns to remove refit.

 

The nib works fine as usual with the wonderful Triumph points.

fundamentally very nice nibs. I havent seen them listed too often on eBay. Or maybe I am not looking at the proper places.
