Wahl Gold Filled (4 5/8″) – Super Flex – (On Ebay)

Here is a gold filled Wahl with a #4 Wahl nib. The pen is in very good condition. Little scratching or wear. Some on the ends of the barrel, but not as much as is normall. There is just one little ding on the top of the cap. The nib on this pen is incredible. It’s an XF italic nib. It is only 0.4mm (what many call a Fine) at it’s broadest, but still manages to be an italic. And it has some really great flex with nice line variation. It’s a Super flex that likes wet ink best. The fact that the italic is so fine does require a bit of precision when flexing to make sure you keep the nib at the correct angle. It’s not super picky, but you do have to take care. And it also makes the nib more sensitive to oils on the paper. Still an awesome nib that’s hard to part with.
