I've got one pen with a gold nib and that pen is different--something
about it seems different. *It's a Parker Duofold. *I mean, I don't
think it's all that, but it is different.

But if I had my eyes closed, I don't know for sure I'd know the
different between that and a Waterman Phileas.


Duofold is a nice pen. Is yours one of the modern ones, or a vintage?
