Conklin Crescent – Super Flex – (On Ebay)

Here is the classic Conklin Crescent pen. No pen collection would be complete without this iconic pen. This pen has browned quite a bit. The chasing and imprints are still good and crisp. It just looks brown.  The spring clip and crescent are both in good condition. There is a hairline crack in the lip of the cap (see pic). The Conklin #2 Toledo nib is a great flex nib that goes from 0.2mm to 1.9mm. It’s got some great spring, and is very easy to get into a nice rhythm flexing. Plus, with an XXF starting point, it makes flex work look crisp. Free Gift: From now until Christmas, everyone one of my buyers gets a free 2ml sample of Pilot Iroshizuku ink!
