    I have 3 older Rotring Jazz click pens (discontinued) with the automatic retracting feature on the pocket clip that fit the 8127 refill perfectly and are a direct replacement for the original Rotring cartridge. The smoothness of the 8127 is incredible. My favorite refill. I also have a Yafa Shades Rollerball capped pen that fit the 8127 refill.

    Bummed out that Schmidt isn’t making the EasyFlow 9000B anymore. Is this temporary or have they permanently discontinued it? Also what would you recommend as a similar Parker g2 style refill for the Easyflow 9000B?

    So does the 8120/8127/8126 fit into the Lamy swift? Trying to replace my M66 and would prefer to not make the plastic adjustment that the P8126 needs if possible.

    So these refills are made for actually which pens? Most pens won't fit as you have mentioned.

    I have a Krone "Blue Gold" rollerball pen and it uses the Schmidt 8126. So, it may be a rare size considering they only made 388 of the "Blue Gold" pens. That may explain why I haven't been able to find that size anywhere but online.

    If you're using a newer model of the Lamy Swift be veerry carful what you use as a shim, or stopper or whatever to mod a non standard refill to fit. Something the size of what he uses in this video (the piece that comes with the pen), placed inside a newer swift could easily get stuck forever. I'd recommend something half the diamater or slimmer of what is used here @7:38.

    For the non-P version 8126 try the Parafernalia Kabrio. Extremely nice design and feel, maybe a little short for some. My new favourite. Comes with an 8126 and it is the extremely smooth.

    Schmidt makes a "capless" clickable pen for the 8126. I quite enjoy writing with it. It's very smooth.

      I wish there was a “best in this price range” list. P8126 costs around $3/refill and I wonder if it’s worth it considering the range covers many pen options

    In my never ending quest to try more pens I have currently landed a Baronfig Squire. Do you know if I can pick up P8126 refills and they would fit? I've read this is the type they use and they charge a bit more through the Baronfig site so I wanted to see if I could just get the Schmidt refill

    • @unsharpen
      @unsharpen  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yes you can use the p8126, p8127, or p8120

    Easyflow doesn’t have the F version I remember.
    By the way, do you have a way of converting a 812X P refill to a Parker G2 size? I want to put a rollerball into my rotring 600.

  • @chadashton7029
    @chadashton7029 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Any cheaper alternatives to the P8126/7? I need replacements for my Olight O'Pen 2. It came with an Olight branded ink cartridge but I read that the P8126 will fit but I don't want to spend $6 per re-fill if I can avoid it. The Olight refills are about $3 per but reviews are not good on them. My pen is new so I don't know for sure how the pen writes but I'd like to source some refills sooner than later.

  • @nilcesoares9708

    I'm very confused about one thing -- which pens are actually compatible with the Schmidt 8120 or P8120 refills? I inadvertenly bought a P8120 thinking that it would fit my Parker Jotter + I was very sadly mistaken

    • @unsharpen
      @unsharpen  4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Yes this is confusing. Very few pens. Can use the full size 8190. It’s basically an old school rollerball size. The p models are shorts and can be used with some newer pens like certain Lamy rollerballs and even some kaweco

    • @unsharpen
      @unsharpen  หลายเดือนก่อน

      It’s essentially interchangeable with many European rollerball refills. It’s extra wide but that doesn’t stop other refills from working in its place

  • @AaronDimonio
    @AaronDimonio 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    At the 7:40 minute mark you show using a shim with the P812x. Would the non-P (longer version) fit without a shim?

    • @unsharpen
      @unsharpen  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      I don’t believe so (unable to check at the moment). The non p will work in a Rotring jazz
