Wahl-Eversharp Doric with “Flexible” nib – Super Flex – (On Ebay)
Here is a pretty little 1st generation Wahl-Everhsharp Doric in Ladies size. It is in “Morocco” (red/ruby swirl). The pen is in good condition. There is some light scratching throughout, but the honestly the pen looks more scratched in the photos than in person. There is a bigger scratch coming up from the band on the cap on one side. Also, it appears that half the cap has had its facets smooth and more rounded. The gold filled trim is in excellent condition. I could see some brassing on the band with magnification and one tiny spot on the lever. This Doric comes with an Eversharp “Flexible” 14kt. nib. It is an XXF/XF (0.25mm) nib. It’s a great nib with good responsiveness and is almost a wet noodle in terms of ease of flex. A beautiful, quality vintage, flex pen.
