Mabie Todd S.F. (Wood Grain) – Super Flex
Here is Mabie Todd Swan self-filler in wood grain hard rubber. The hard rubber is beautiful. The color has undergone very minimal fading through the years. The pen is about the size of a Waterman 52 and very similar in design. The imprints are present, but those on the side of the barrel are quite worn and difficult to read. The gold-filled trim is in nice condition as well with the exception of the lever which has some obvious plate loss along the edges. But the two bands and clip still look great. The 14kt Swan #2 is a lovely wet, soft and glassy smooth writer. It falls somewhere between a Mediuma nd Broad (0.6mm), and it is not shy about putting down some ink. The flex on this is soft and wet with some nice responsiveness for a medium nib. It has some nice range going from M/B (0.6mm) to BBB (1.7mm) with ease. Overall, just a wonderful Swan in a beautiful style.
