PRICE: $395
COMMENTS: Parker Jack Knife Safety 24 1/2 in black chased hard rubber and nickel trim. Clipped cap. This is an oversized pen for vintage standards, fairly thick in diameter and a fairly large nib. The Parker Jack Knife Safety model is the predecessor of the Parker Duofold model. Jack Knife pens were made in different models/sizes. Fitted with its correct 14k Parker Lucky Curve #4 superflex nib that writes a fine to double broad line. Smooth nib, capable of very thin lines and also capable of writing at any speed when not flexed. Nib has the very slim and very long tines, making it a more desirable and a more valuable flex nib. Correct Christmas tree feed. This pen has multiple cosmetic flaws. Hence the reason it is graded as in "good" condition, but it is not as severe as to having to be graded in "user grade" condition. The black rubber has some discoloration, more pronounced is some areas of the cap. The nickel clip has significant brassing and patina. The blind cap has a couple of areas that are chipped off. The nib has a hairline at its base. Great chasing and imprints on the cap and barrel. Button filler mechanism. New sac. Made in USA in the later part of the 1910s.

COMMENTS: Parker Lucky Curve in black chased hard rubber and gold trim. Streamlined profile. Flat-top and full sized pen. Fitted with a 14K Parker nib that writes a fine line. I would grade this nib as a springy nib. It is not a flexible nib as it will not produce line variation, but it will provide a little "cushion" feel when using it. Professionally adjusted nib. So smooth it glides on paper. Great black rubber color with perfect chasing and lots of black luster and gloss. Perfect barrel imprints. Perfectly clean gold trim. If it were not for a tiny dent in the nib right under the "K" letter, this pen would be marked as in mint condition. It is very hard to find vintage pens that are about 100 years old in this condition. Button filler mechanism. New sac. Made in Canada in the 1920s.

This nibs is also significantly more valuable than the more common fine and extra fine nibs these pens came fitted with. Correct Christmas tree feed.
