Description

For your consideration, we are offering for sale this 1998 Namiki Falcon Fountain Pen with a 14K Soft Broad (SB) nib. This fountain pen has been gently used, well cared for, and is in Excellent Condition. I have ultrasonically cleaned the section/nib, cleaned, buffed, polished the pen, and is in fantastic writing condition.

This Namiki Fountain pen cap and barrel are in perfect condition with no cracks, nicks, scratches, or repairs. The pen is made of resin with a screw-on cap to the barrel. The trim is gold plated displaying no wear and the nib is a 14K "Soft Broad" designed nib. The cap is a "screw-on" type and is always securing tightly to the barrel. 

The fountain pen measures 5 3/8" inches in length capped and 5 7/8" inches posted. The pen weighs 18.2 grams with the ink converter included. The cap banding is stamped with, "NAMIKI JAPAN".

This Namiki Falcon Nib is well-known in the fountain pen community as being a soft and flexible nib. The nib date code on the nib is B798 which was made in July 1998 on production line B at the Hiratsuka factory. The "SB" designation on the nib makes it a "Soft Broad" type. The nib will write with a line variation from a medium (.75mm) to a double broad (1.38mm) line variation from light pressure to firm pressure when measured with digital calipers. The writing sample was performed by dipping the nib in Parker Blue ink. The writing sample in the images was done with the actual pen you see in the images. 

The Namiki comes with a squeeze ink converter. The ink converter works as it was intended to. Also, one can use Pilot ink cartridges.

The price point of this pen makes it a great writing instrument to try out without breaking the bank if you ever wanted to try a Falcon and the Soft Broad nib.  The nib is spectacular on this pen and you will love to write with it if you like wet, broad juicy lines.
