I bought a specific style of Hongdian because of the spring in the converter. Do all of the Hongdian pens have that?

There is a spring or plastic ball inside the Hongdian converter to ensure ink flow easily.

Does this take a unique cartridge or will standard international fit it as well?

It works with 3.4mm cartridges such as Hongdian cartridges.

How is a long knife (or long blade) nib different from normal nibs?

This is basically a mild version of a stub italic nib. It's not a round end. Think of it as an oval shape that's adjustable by changing the angle

How can I get the ink to flow more than a couple of lines? I’ve completely clean all parts. To no avail. Love the beauty of the pen. Any suggestions?

In my case ink flow is really good, I’ve never had any writing problem with this pen. If you already clean the pen section and still have problems check if tins are aligned correctly with the feeder, if they aren’t extract nib and feeder to align them. If they are correctly aligned check if the tins are not too wide apart or too tight. You can check some GouletPens and Goldspot YouTube videos to correct any of these two errors.
