Product Description
For those who like an oversized pen that still feels balanced in the hand, the Pelikan Souverän M805 has a lot to offer. Measuring 6.5 inches long when posted, it makes a statement with its signature pelican-beak clip and 18-karat gold nib Read More
I bought a M805 Stresemann with EF nib from the previous drop.
I can give only three stars to this transaction. The overll process of transaction was smooth and I've got my delivery without significant delay, so I could give 5 stars for the transaction. But the problem is the quality of fountain pen itself.
When I first tried to use the pen, ink flow was so terrible that I cannot use it for regular writing at all. I experienced frequent skips all the time. So I cleaned the nib throughly using detergent and warm water again and again, but nothing's changed. I tried several different types of ink such as Pilot Iroshizuku, Pelikan 4001 and Edelstein, Parker, Mont Blanc, etc. but no significant improvement.
Fortunately, I could find a 3rd party fountain pen maintenance center around my place and the engineer adjusted the feeder to make better ink flow. Now the fountain pen is working properly.
