Wahl-Eversharp Doric – Good/Super Flex – (On Ebay)
This is a black Wahl-Eversharp Doric in the smaller vest size. These were high quality pens made by Eversharp and named “Doric” after the Doric columns of Greek architecture. This pen has seen some use. It has light scratching throughout and some places with some small deeper scratches. There is a deep scratch going through the “Eversharp” on the cap. The gold filled clip has lost much of its plating, and the lever has lost almost all of it. The band looks good though. The 14kt. Eversharp nib reminds me of the Eversharp “Signature” nibs. It is a soft, smooth, and lovely writing nib. The flex on this is quite easy and I have graded this pen on the border between Good and Super flex. The range of flex is a bit limited only going up to 1.6mm, but it has good ease of flex and great responsiveness. High quality flex writing comes easy with this pen.
