Wahl Gold-Filled Ring Top – Super Flex
Wahl made some outstanding gold-filled pens. They are durable, portable, and great quality. This pen is the on the smaller end with a #2 nib (there are smaller #0 nib pens1). This pen does show some wear and dings. The only brassing really is on the end of the barrel from where the cap gets posted (and you really need to post these). There are a couple of dings on the body (see pics) as well. The lever in is good condition and works well. Ring top is still present and no personalizations. The 14kt #2 Wahl is a great nib. Writes very smooth as an XF. It’s not a typical wet vintage nib but more subdued in its flow. Still it keeps up fine. The flex on this nib is really nice ranging up to BBB (1.6mm) with very good responsiveness. You can do some really snappy flex work with this one.
