In the year 1929 Pelikan was the first company in the world to introduce the differentiated piston mechanism. This technique causes the spindle inside the fountain pen to turn quicker than the end piece of the barrel, with the help of two different threads. To this date, this fountain pen exists in many different variations, and though it has been developed in design and technical details over time, the basic mechanism remains the same.

In 1950, the model 400 was launched. With its green-striped sleeve, it has become a world-wide symbol for the brand of Pelikan. In the eighties, the series was baptized Souverän, though popular lore has taken to calling it by its nick-name Stresemann, because the state secretary of the “Weimarer Republik” was famous for his striped suits...

The production of the sleeve is work-intensive. Adhering to a special Pelikan recipe, the raw material cotton is processed through many different steps until it is shaped into a striped sheet. It is then formed into the right shape, cut and sanded with a diamond. Next, the characteristic double clips at the back of the barrel and on the cap are integrated into the material. This is done with the highest precision in order to obtain a virtually seamless transition between the materials. The writing instrument is then polished to a high sheen before the slightly springy clip with its famous, stylized Pelikan is mounted.

The M600 is available in the colours Black,Black/Green, Black/Blue and Black/Red.

The M600 has a hand-crafted, finely engraved 14 carat gold nib with rhodium decoration · Gold-plated Pelikan clip.

If you love classics, you own a Souverän writing instrument.

Review Title: Pelikan Souveran M600 Black/Red Fountain Pen

Review Add on: 30-04-2023
Average Rating: (5)

This was my first Pelikan and my first purchase from Appleboom. Both have been outstanding experiences. I asked Appelboom to check and to tune my nib (a service that I wish other retailers offered), and it writes magnificently. The pen is beautiful and the perfect size for my everyday writer. It has the smoothest operating piston I have ever experienced, and the quality of construction is unmatched. Appleboom's customer service is wonderful, and I could not be happier with my experience.

Review Title: Pelikan Souveran M600 Extra fine Black/Red Fountain Pen

Review Add on: 31-10-2022
Average Rating: (5)

This is my third Pelikan Souveran fountain Pen from Appelboom. I also have the M1000 and the M800, both with fine nibs. The M600 is an outstanding everyday, everywhere, take with pen. I like the extra fine nib for improving my handwriting. The ink flow is perfect and consistent and the pen wrote well right away. That probably is because, like my other two Pelikan fountain pens, I requested a nib tuning from Appelboom for the M600. My first ink fill is with Pelikan Edelstein Star Ruby ink and this red ink looks special with the beautiful black/red fountain pen. As a bonus, my new pen has the signature Pelikan translucent stripes on the barrel so the ink level is visible. The customer care and service from Appelboom, as usual, was exceptional.

This is a beautiful pen, write smoothly. It write really wet, so order one nib size down if this is your first Pelikan pen. Appelboom service is wonderful and responsive. Thanks for free “tune and smooth” option,

I had wanted this pen for a while and decided to order from Appelboom because of the competitive pricing and their reputation for excellent customer service . This pen was part of a larger order and it was beautifully wrapped and placed in the larger box that contained the rest of my order along with some delicious biscuits. The packaging and customer service was excellent.
The pen itself writes smoothly and the piston mechanism worked without any issues. This is my second Pelikan and it didn’t disappoint. The weight of the pen and the size are perfect for my hand. I use Pelikan ink in my fountain pens.

Review Title: Absolutely great purchase

I had mostly used Japanese gold nib pens and this was my first Pelikan and what a great pen it indeed is. I ordered an M600 in medium nib as I wanted a nice juicy fat nib and it is such a pleasure to write with. The nib is so well tuned and the ink flow is just perfect. You have to get a Pelikan to understand why the fans rave so much about them. Appelboom provides one of the most competitive pricing for European pens. The product was shipped super fast and everything about ordering with Appelboom was fabulous. A very happy customer

Review Title: Pelikan Souverän m600 Black/Red

Review Add on: 03-07-2020
Average Rating: (4)

Just like other Pelikans the Souverän m600 writes smoothly, holds a good amount of ink and looks sharp. Clip works nicely, cap twists on and off quickly and the piston turning knob is smooth. I like that the nib and section twist right out of the body of the pen for cleaning. I knocked one star because the one I received had flat looking stripes. Owning many Pelikans I know that the shinyness can vary. Sometimes you get really shiny stripes, other times you get a combination of flat and shiny stripes and this one I recieved is flat. Doesn't change how great the pen is and still looks very attractive. It is also a decent amount smaller than the Pelikan m800 series. Another nice thing is posting the m600 doesn't make it back heavy. The m600 seems like the sweet spot if you have smaller hands, just want something smaller or want a carry pen that is not bigger like an m1000 and not too small like the m300. The m600 is a great choice and I highly recommend every enthusiast to have one.

Review Title: Stunning Pelikan!

Review Add on: 20-04-2020
Average Rating: (5)

This pen is the second Pelikan in my collection and I have to say it is absolutely stunning writing instrument! I love the majestic combination of the gold trim and the red stripes. The medium nib performs as a dream. It is smooth but gives just right amount of feedback. For easy cleaning of the ink barrel you are able to remove the whole nib section easily. Can't wait to add more of these birds into my pen case!

Review Title: Absolutely stunning pen

Review Add on: 24-03-2020
Average Rating: (5)

I have several M400 and M800s. Although I love them all, I think the M600 is pretty much the perfect size for me. It's lightweight and reasonably comfortable to write with. However, it feels rock solid and the build quality is top notch. It has a fairly good sized 14k gold nib. The clip slides easily over shirt pockets or other materials. Overall, it's a classy pen.

Review Title: The incredible M600 Red.

What can I say about the Souverän M600 that hasn’t already been said? Superb attention to detail, unique materials for construction and a nib that has been made for one job...performance writing. What other company offers you a gold nibbed, self filling pen built to this level for such a reasonable cost? Amazing pen and I highly recommend it.

The M600 is a perfect mix of size, function and appearance. All of the fine visual details from the 800 and 1000 along with a beautiful nib if equal quality and design. The M600 size is a great complement to any carry situation without bulk, while being a joy to use!

Review Title: Long awaited fountain pen

Review Add on: 21-11-2019
Average Rating: (5)

The Pelikan :600 red and black stripes in broad point was a long awaited fp. I have an M815 and and M400 plus other Pelikan pens but this was my first M600. Like the others this was broad nib but unlike the others the nib was not smooth but scratchy and had feedback. Instead of trying to micro mesh this, I changed the ink from Diamine Poppy Red to Diamine Skull and Roses and the pen seemed to like this ink better. The smoothness is still not fully there but it is better and I have started enjoying writing with it. Additionally the MontBlanc bottle of ink was not sent with the pen but Joost sent that as an additional package. Although the pen does not deserve a full 5 stars I am giving it 5 stars due to Joost’s exceptional customer service.

The Pelikan Souveran M600 is an excellent size fountain pen for most hands. The length and girth of the pen makes it comfortable to hold and write with whether it is posted or unposted. Weight is good.

Thanks Joost and team at Appelboom for having this pen in stock and at this great price.

Review Title: Perfect in het midden.

Review Add on: 30-06-2019
Average Rating: (5)

Ik vindt de M400 perfect om in een borstzak mee te nemen. De M800 heeft de perfecte maat in mijn hand, maar is net te groot voor een borstzak.
De M600 valt hier perfect tussenin. Niet te groot voor een borstzak, maar groot genoeg om lekker mee te schrijven. Ik heb hem met een “M” punt gekocht waardoor de kleur van de inkt goed uit komt. Waarschijnlijk zal ik binnenkort nog een M600 kopen met een fijnere punt voor op het werk i.v.m. de mindere papier kwaliteit.

Review Title: Absolutely delighted!

Review Add on: 08-06-2019
Average Rating: (5)

After some discussion on FPN (fountainpennetwork.com), I decided to get the Extra Fine nib. I chose the tune-and-smooth option, and included a request to tune the nib for maximum smoothness.

I'm absolutely delighted with the pen. I have to write on average quality paper much of the time, and this one feels perfectly smooth on all the kinds I've tried so far, with no additional tuning on my part. It's definitely a pen that I would put in the A+ category.

A couple of cheap, smartphone-quality pics (Sorry!) of the pen and a writing sample here: https://photos.app.goo.gl/TZAFqS4zNrVSLrFL8

Review Title: Lovely

Review Add on: 30-11-2018

This pen is lovely, both visually and functionally. My black/red M600 came with a medium nib. It wrote flawlessly out of the box. I own an M800 and M805, and wasn’t certain I would like the smaller M600, but I enjoy it enormously. The pen is simply excellent.
