Parker Lucky Curve Jack Knife Safety Pen – Good Flex – (On Ebay)
Here is a BCHR Parker Lucky Curve Jack-Knife Saftey Pen #20. It is still has the lucky curve feed, curve and all, and has a patent date of June 4, 1912. The pen is in pretty good condition. There is some fading to the hard rubber body making it more of a grayish black. The imprints are still pretty good. The ring top has little to no brassing on it and looks good. The 14kt. Parker Lucky Curve nib writes as a nice, smooth XF and flexes up to BBB (1.9mm). Although it has great line variation, it is a little too stiff for me to grade a super flex. Still it is quite easy to do some nice flex writing.
