Conklin Duragraph Fountain Pen Blue Nights Special Edition
The Conklin Duragraph fountain pen was originally launched in 1923 and was considered the "definitive" pen. The name comes from a combination of the words durable and graph. The newly redesigned Conklin Duragraph brings a new fresh look to this timeless fountain pen. The pen is handcrafted from quality resins in three classic finishes. The top of the cap is embellished with Conklin Est. 1898. The band on the cap is engraved with the Duragraph script logo and three Conklin Crescent logos on both sides. The Conklin Duragraph fountain pen comes as a cartridge/converter style pen with the ink converter included.

Guaranteed Quality This is the Conklin Duragraph fountain pen. It comes in a blue faux leather box. We have the Conklin logo printed in gold on the top of the lid. Inside is a nice, soft, white satin interior with the Conklin logo, once again in gold, on the underside of the lid. Included with the pen is two ink cartridges that uses a standard universal ink cartridge, and it also comes with information about Conklin brand and the warranty and use and care guide for the pen. This is the amber version of the Conklin Duragraph fountain pen. I also have the Cracked Ice version of the pen. In cracked ice, you can see a speckled pattern throughout the barrel of the pen with those white section with black lines running throughout. The pen has chrome accents and has a nice, large chrome clip, small chrome band at the top and then a black cap at the very top with the Conklin logo printed on it, established 1898. And the amber color, you can see the orange and black patterns. Each of these pens will be unique based on the resin that they use and how that's turned. On that chrome band, the bottom of the cap, we have Conklin on the front side and then Duragraph really small on the bottom with the Conklin crescent moons. And then the bottom of the barrel is a thin chrome band and a small black cap. The cap is threaded on screws on and off, it can be posted on the pen. It comes with a black grip section and a chrome-colored nib with the gold-colored Conklin logo on the nib. And this is a cartridge converter style pens, so that grip section unscrews from the rest or the barrel. Included with the pen is an ink converter, as well as those cartridges I showed you earlier, so you can use bottled inks with the pen or ink cartridges, which ever you'd prefer. Conklin is a U.S. brand, makes some great writing instruments. I really like the look of this new pen. Get your Conklin Duragraph fountain pen at PenChalet.com! A very nice old-standby type of pen, with a great retro design. It is good value for the money. The ink fed poorly on the "fine" nib I tried but the "medium" nib is flowing well. It is comfortable with a slightly pencilly feel with little flex. The cap cannot be posted without scratching the finish but posted the pen is too long anyway. I'll admit I was a bit worried about this pen when I placed the order (I'd heard about some quality control issues with the nibs). However, I went for the 1.1 stub nib and it was a home run. I love the color, the shape, and the weight, and the nib somehow makes me want to have better handwriting. For the money, it was a great deal, especially given the rising price of fountain pens during the past year or so. A lovely pen, with all the quality that Conklin offers. Lovely pen The Conklin Duragraph has a history dating back to the early 1920's. Conklin engineered ground breaking designs and the Duragraph was the best pen to own back in the day. For some, it still is. This timeless classic design never gets outdated, never gets old. Every time you use it, you'll enjoy it. Mine writes like butter, smooth and predictable with every stroke. The medium nib is not finicky when it comes to ink, it will take what ever you load into it. I have a wide range of wet well lubed inks as well as some very dry types and the Duragraph works well with most of them. For a sub $100 pen, this one is not going to disappoint you. I'd fully recommend the Duragraph and would buy another variation without hesitation. A lot of pen for the money. Collectible and won't break the bank. This is my first Conklin Duragraph and I have to say I am disappointed. Conklin has one too many quality control issues. These seems like Chinese Manufactured pens and if that is what one wants then there are many good options for much cheaper price such as Moonman M600, Jinhao Centennial and Kaigulu 316. The pen I received and issues with nib and feed alignment. It also came without a converter. I had similar experience with one of the Conklin All-American I purchased before, it had nib issues as well. So for around $50 I don't think it is worth that with all the quality control issues.

It looks nice and comes nicely presented. The flex nib is fun but you need to prime it almost every other sentence (I expected that as per other reviews elsewhere). I got it on sale plus 10% discount,. Love this pen the flex nib broke on me pushing the nib to far. Put on a med nib works great, however offers little to no line deviation. Q: I want to know the difference between the fine and medium nib. What are the mm of each? Is the fine point considered an extra fine point or standard? A: The fine nib is approximately .5mm and the Medium is approximately .7mm. The Fine nib is a Western Fine, which would be considered a standard fine. Q: I must be totally overlooking it, but does it come with blue or black ink ? A: The Conklin Duragraph comes with two in cartridges. One blue and one black. Q: what is the finish on the 1.1 stub nib? 2 tone, silver or black? A: The Stub nib on the Conklin Duragraph come in either black or silver. The stub nib silver version is only silver while the other nib sizes offer the 2 tone nib. We currently have the black stub nib in stock. Q: Can the nib be removed from the feed for cleaning and can the threaded converter be disassembled for cleaning and greasing as well? A: Yes, the pen disassembles for cleaning. The grip section unscrews from the barrel of the pen. The converter then unscrews and the nib and feed section unscrews from the grip section as well. Q: Is the cartridge converter screw-in or push-in? A: The Conklin Duragraph Fountain Pen comes with a screw in type converter included with the pen. The pen also takes a standard international ink cartridge. Retail: $ 70.00 Ships in 1-3 business day. Low inventory, act now! Special Order: price matchConklin Duragraph Fountain Pens
