Re: Who knows what's 35 A 403 ink ?...

Hello, endorsing ink is not an ink for fountain pens, or dip pens at all. This is a pigment to color ink filled pads for "inking stamps". Here is a picture as an example for a stamp pad: http://www.pelikan.com/pulse/Pulsar/en_US_INTL.Store.displayStore.36771./stamp-pads-in-metal-cases I hope this wi...

Re: Pelikan Black, Gold and Silver Guilloche

Hello,

due to the design it looks like a model "Celebry" from 1992/1995. In this line also rollerballs were available.

Re: Comparing nib sizes of M600 with M800

Hello,

in my opinion all modern nibs are wider than the nibs in vintage fountain pens with the same declaration. The best way to get a nib you like it, is to test it at a store with different writing test equipment or at a pen show.

Best regards

Re: Comparing nib sizes of M600 with M800

Hello, The nibs and feeds from M3xx, M8xx, and M10xx are each unique to themselves. The M800 feed has a bigger diameter as the M600. Sorry the news is not better. Would the M800 nibs be the same width as the M600? No, I think it is not so. Each model have nibs of different width. Best regards Werner
