Sheaffer Gold Filled Ring Top – Wet Noodle (On Ebay)
This Sheaffer gold filled ring top does not have any brassing that I can see. It does, however, have quite a few very small dings throughout, especially on the tap of the cap probably from biting it. There is also a larger ding next to the lever. The pen has no personalization on it. This pen lost its original Sheaffer nib, but in it’s place is a wet writing 14kt. Warranted F (0.5mm) that has wet noodle softness to it. It’s not quite a paintbrush soft, but it is very close and flexes up to 1.8mm. I also replaced the original Sheaffer feed simply because it, along with all the old Sheaffer feeds I’ve ever used, just cannot keep up with any kind of flex writing. If you are looking for a wet noodle nib at an affordable price, this is your chance.
