I used to like this design until I saw it at Walmart for $5.97.
I don't know....it's also in the Spring issue of Fountain Pen Hospital
Parker makes it and it's $300.00 :biggrin:
If you want to just try one and there's a Wood Craft near you they carry it and it's called a Retro. Only difference is it has a CB coupler and two short tubes. I just press the tubes together and turn off the CB then drill one long blank. To me it looks much better as a single barrel.
It does make a nice pocket pen altho it's a tad small for my hands.
Wood Craft only carries the 24k gold and chrome. I stocked up on a bunch of Chrome last month while the were 20% off. They look really nice with the different "Plastics" and resins.
