Summary

Description
English: Writing in Russian cyrillic script with a fountain pen. The #6 "Iridium Point Germany" nib is an affordable modern OEM nib of Asian origin. Only the tip is German made and it contains no Iridium as other modern nib tips. The tiny tipping pellets are soldered or welded onto a nib tip prior to cutting the nib slit and grinding the tip into its final shape and are made of an alloy containing Osmium, Ruthenium and Tungsten in a mix of other materials.
Español: Escritura cirílica rusa con una pluma estilográfica. El plumín n.º 6 «Iridium Point Germany» es un plumín OEM moderno y asequible de origen asiático. Solo la punta es de fabricación alemana y, al igual que otras puntas de plumín modernas, no contiene iridio. Las diminutas pastillas de la punta se sueldan o fijan a la punta del plumín antes de cortar la hendidura y pulir la punta hasta darle su forma definitiva, y están fabricadas con una aleación que contiene osmio, rutenio y tungsteno, mezclados con otros materiales.
