GERMAN SCHMIDT NIBS

Find your own writing character

Choose the contrast of a two-tone stainless steel nib, the clean look of a silver-tone steel nib, or an 18K gold nib. Each hand-finished nib works with the SCHMIDT feed to carry ink through to the page.

Steel nibs are available in EF, F and M. The 18K gold special edition is available in EF and M. Select your nib and finish from the options above.

THE BREATHING CAP

A way out for pressure changes

When you remove or replace the cap, the breathing passage allows air to move in or out, easing sudden pressure changes around the nib and feed. Once the cap is seated, the air settles, ready for the next time you write.

THREE INNER CHAMBERS

Help moisture stay where it belongs

Three chambers connected by small openings slow moisture loss inside the cap. A continuous ink path lets the converter replenish the nib through the feed's fine channels and the nib slit, helping the tip stay moist and making it easier to start writing after a break.

Use dye-based fountain pen ink in breathing mode. Replace the cap fully and store horizontally after use. Breathing mode is not suitable for quick-drying inks.

ADJUSTABLE SEALING

A cap mode to suit your routine

Choose breathing mode for frequent writing with dye-based ink. When you write less often, insert the pin into the air-regulation opening to switch to sealed mode. A dedicated upper hole holds the pin when it is not in use, keeping the adjustment neatly inside the cap.

A THREADED CONNECTION

The K6 converter screws securely into place

The SCHMIDT K6 has a threaded front that screws directly into the grip section. This connection holds the converter firmly in place, while its clear barrel keeps the remaining ink level easy to see.

The K6 converter is an optional accessory.

TWO WAYS TO REFILL

Refill your way

Unscrew the long barrel, immerse the nib in ink and turn the rear of the K6 to fill it. You can also open the tail and use a shortened empty cartridge to turn the converter from the back, leaving the long barrel in place.

YOUR PREFERRED LENGTH

Post the cap. Keep writing.

Approximately 120 mm uncapped, or 148.5 mm with the cap posted. The compact cap and barrel proportions let you choose the length that suits your grip, with a convenient place for the cap while you write.

READY TO GO

Pull the clip open and take it with you

Milled from solid titanium and paired with a stainless steel spring, the clip opens with a gentle outward pull. Slip it over a shirt pocket or notebook and release it to keep your pen close at hand.
