This Schon DSGN Pocket Six compact fountain pen features a black aluminum finish called "Satin Black". 

The "Pocket Six" is the first fountain pen offering from Schon DSGN. A compact cartridge fountain pen, it is designed for everyday use. These pens are compact when capped but offer a nice full sized fountain pen experience when the cap is posted on the back of the pen. The cap screws to open/close as well as to post onto the back.

The name "Pocket Six" comes from the fact that this pocket pen houses a #6 sized JoWo steel nib, which is a full sized nib, rather than the smaller #5 commonly found in pocket size fountain pens.

This clipless fountain pen accepts short standard international ink cartridges (a pack is included).

Schon DSGN Pocket Six Fountain Pen - Satin Black

Great pen, excellent writing experience!

Schon DSGN Pocket Six Fountain Pen

I wanted an easy-to-carry pocket fountain pen that I could use for impromptu notes during the day and to sign items such as charge card receipts. This pen met these requirements. When assembled, it is almost as large as a full-sized pen. The steel nib provides a quality writing experience. It's a well-designed and well-made pen.

Hawk's Review

Bought this pen because it is USA made. Greatly surprised by size and smoothness of the nib. The feel and compactness of the unit is very compatible with my current activities. One does not notice it in your pocket. This pen could use a feature to keep it from rolling off a desk or hard surface when not in your pocket or during filling. Compactness preclude the use of converter, the cartridge is easily changed or refilled.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I use this pen with ink cartridges? 8EDA1617-F73A-4DAF-8245-6D2BF4ABEB7B

A cartridge is small, disposable, sealed plastic reservoir that holds fountain pen ink. These come pre-filled with ink, and typically you just push to insert them into place and you'll be ready to write!

This pen uses standard international ink cartridges, a common size which is available in many colors from various brands.

You can learn more about how to actually install an ink cartridge on our blog, or in this video tutorial:

How do I clean this fountain pen? 8EDA1617-F73A-4DAF-8245-6D2BF4ABEB7B

It mostly comes down to flushing out the pen with water, and sometimes a little bit of pen flush if the ink is really stuck. 

We put together a blog post with step-by-step instructions, or you can watch the video here:

We recommend a good cleaning every 2 weeks, and any time you change ink colors. Water will usually do the trick, but we recommend you use our Goulet Pen Flush if the ink has been left in the pen for a while and could have dried up, or when you’re switching ink colors.

For even more information about fountain pen cleaning, check out our Fountain Pen 101 video blog post.
