Parker Lucky Curve Jack Knife – (On Ebay)
Here is a BCHR Parker Lucky Curve Jack-Knife Saftey Pen. It is still has the lucky curve feed, curve and all, and has a patent date of June 4, 1912. The pen is in decent condition for a hundred year old pen. The black rubber has faded to a dark brown with some spots lighter than others on the pen. The chasing is pretty worn though visible. The imprint on the cap is decent, but the Lucky Curve imprint on the barrel is worn and difficult to read. This is a ring top and the gold filled ring top has some minor pitting. The end cap screws on well. The button on the back looks like it is a hundred years old, but I replaced the pressure bar on the inside. So the filling system is actually new. The 14kt. Lucky Curve nib is delightfully smooth F (0.4mm).
