Wahl-Eversharp Skyline Gold-Filled – Super Flex – (On Ebay)
Here is a Skyline that was made to have a completely gold-filled body. There are almost no signs of brassing on this pen. There is a little plate loss on the middle of the lever from years of posting the pen. The pen has an inscription on the lip of the cap that reads “Ernest F. Gaul.” The pen does have two small dings. The first is very small, perhaps 2mm or so, in the cap. It’s more like a scratch. The second is a bit larger on the barrel. Most of the pen is ding free, however. The Eversahrp 14kt. nib is a beauty. It’s a wet writing, smooth F. And it has great flex going pretty easily up to BBB (1.8mm). Plus, it has some really nice responsiveness. Fantastic Skyline that isn’t easy to find.
