| Nevertheless, the system was quite successful and was reused by various European manufacturers. In particular, an interesting variant is the ''[[push-knob]]'' made by [[Montblanc]], in which the blind cap itself serves as a button. In fact, it can be partially unscrewed until it is brought into a position where the internal button on which the metal spring is anchored is hooked, pressing the blind cap compresses the spring and loads the pen. Once filling is complete, the blind cap can be returned to the locked position to avoid accidental pressure. | | Nevertheless, the system was quite successful and was reused by various European manufacturers.

| Another variant is the one patented by [[Soennecken]] in 1930, which provides for an ebonite button hidden by a shell by rotating which you can reach the loading button and operate it, while rotating it in the reverse direction this is returned to the original position, blocking access to the button. Both variants make it possible to overcome another not insignificant problem of the classic version, which is the not insignificant probability of losing the blind cap.<noinclude> | | Another variant is the one patented by [[Soennecken]] in 1930, which provides for an ebonite button hidden by a shell by rotating which you can reach the loading button and operate it, while rotating it in the reverse direction this is returned to the original position, blocking access to the button.
