Wahl-Eversharp Coral Red – Super Flex (On Ebay)
Here is a beautiful Wahl-Eversharp in their coral red style. The body has darkened some, though the color is pretty uniform. The cap is missing the original tulip clip (the tulip however is of course still there). There are no signs of a break, so you would only know this if you knew what the pen was supposed to look like. The gold filled top of the cap does show some brassing around the top edges. The lever shows just a bit of brassing on its edges as well. The bands look good. There also appears to be some kind of marks, probably from over aggressive buffing, left in a few places on the body (see pic of the biggest mark). You can only see these if you look very closely. I almost missed them. The 14kt. Wahl #2 is a great writing XF. It’s wet and smooth and springy. It also has some good flex up to BBB (1.8mm). The flex is pretty easy and responsive and the flow keeps up very well. A great little pen.
