Wahl Ring Top Red Hard Rubber (On Ebay)
Here is a Wahl vest pen with ring top in red hard rubber. The pen is in good condition overall. The hard rubber still has some of the original chasing, but it is worn some. Original imprint at the top of the cap is worn as well. The color of the pen is still pretty good. There is a tiny crack going from the lever box to the lever pin hole, but everything appears to be stable. All the gold trim looks to be in great condition with no brassing. The pen no longer has the original Wahl nib. Instead, it has a 14kt. Warranted nib that is in excellent condition with great tipping. The nib writes as a wet and smooth F (0.4mm). Very good for normal writing. It also has some good flex going up to 1.5mm. It’s a little stiff and lacking in responsiveness to to be graded higher, but still a great nib.
