I was going through my pen turning hobby and made a lot of pens. Gave almost all of them away except for a few cigars and a few fountain pens. Now I am have these pens and can't seem to find refills for them. The three on the left are fountain pens, the other three are cigar pens. How can I get converters for the fountain pens? How can I get the nice, upgraded, refills for the cigar pens? I bought some off Amazon and they did not fit. Any suggestions?

If the 3 on the left of your photo are the fountain pens (and they might not be - those kits come in both rollerball and fountain pen versions), they should all take a Standard International Cartridge/Converter. My opinion is that Schmidt make the best converters, type K5 is fine. Type K6 also has some threads near the nose of the converter but they fit just like type K5 in pens that don't have the threads built into the nib section.

Ed at Exotic Blanks sells them.

Ed also sells the Schmidt rollerball and "Parker style" ball point refills.

Yes, the three on the left are fountain pens. The other 3 are cigar style pens.
