[WTS] Extraordinary Vintage Swan Mabie Todd Jade Green Cracked Ice Cellulose with 14ct gold "Oblique Broad Italic" Insane Flex "Wet Noodle"nib

Sold
£299

This is a special pen for few reasons. It's a Swan Mabie Todd in a rare Jade Green cracked Ice Cellulose with a very special nib.

It has a very unusual 14ct gold Oblique Broad Italic nib that has got insane amount of flex worthy of calling a wet noodle. It flexes nicely (upto 2.5mm) with excellent springyness. This is one of the most flex capability nibs I have come across. It writes super smooth.

Feed: Solid ebonite. Word of caution: since the nib is a broad italic and insanely flexible I recommend using a very wet ink to get the most out of it as It needs a load of ink specially when flex writing. A nib with such ink demand needs to be dealt with slowly and carefully.

Please see the writing sample video (keep the audio on for the ambiance 😊) and photos here:

The pen has been serviced recently, new ink sac installed and in fully functional condition.

The nib has been closely inspected and tuned to give a very nice writing experience.

I am a medical doctor by profession with a full-time day job. I do this purely out of passion for fountain pens, specially vintage flex pens. I can safely say that I understand flex nibs and have owned a lot of them over the years. If you have been looking for a vintage pen with a flex nib, please drop me a text. If it is not this particular pen, I might be able to find the right pen at the right price for you as I am trimming down my massive collection. Many thanks.
