This is an edition retired at Franklin-Christoph and the remaining inventory released to us. It is a pen for more advanced users, with a slip cap function. Best to uncap with a one handed break so as to not create air suction. The 20 is one of the most popular F-C models of all time. 

  • Precision machining and design create a cap that securely and firmly fits to the section and barrel with a firm grip. When capped or posted properly it is impossible to sling the cap off, so can be securely used in a shirt pocket or pen pouch. 

  • No exterior threads and no shoulder from grip section to barrel. 

  • The pressure is distributed inside the cap and away from the lip to prevent lip cracking. 

  • The interior of the cap has a feature that releases air pressure to eliminate the vacuum that causes ink spurts on the nib when uncapping. 

  • Filled 3 ways, via disposable cartridge, piston converter, or the eye dropper method. Barrel holds approximately 3.5ml of ink when eyedroppered.

  • #6 Size nib - EF, F, M, B, or 1.1

  • Lifetime warranty,  converter, sample cartridges, and a 30 day money back guarantee are all included. Made in USA. 

  • Ships with a one pen zippered pouch with an outer white thin box.
