A Bexley Duofold Centennial

[penmanila]

of all my recent ebay finds, this is the one that i've been using the most, very much a keeper and a user: the bexley-made woodgrain duofold centennial. i love the warmth of the ebonite, and the faceting is exquisite:

of all the modern parker nibs ever made, i consider the "banner" nib the most beautiful of them all, and it was used on this bexley:

i've seen this pen offered on the pentooling.com site for $450, and i was lucky to get it for considerably lower than that.

I generally don't like these mix-up type pens, but I love this thing!
