Wahl-Eversharp Skyline (Demi) – Good Flex – (On Ebay)
Here is a Wahl-Eversharp Skyline Demi size in solid black with gold trim. The pen is in good condition. There is some light scratching throughout the pen, but I’ve buffed and polished a lot of it out. It appears that in screwing on the clip someone created a deeper scratch that rings around the cap (see pic). The gold trim is in pretty good condition. Just a bit of brassing on the lever and some on the thin band along the bottom of the cap. The rest of the trim looks great. The lever is a little loose but not a major issue. The nib is a typical Eversharp nib: a delightful XF (0.3mm) that is pretty wet and smooth. Great for normal writing. The flex comes pretty easy but doesn’t quite have the responsiveness of a super flex nib.
