Nitty Gritty
There are no major imperfections to note, no splits cracks or engravings.
The pen shows light surface wear throughout, and a blemish to the finish on the barrel (see photo 8)
The blind cap closes just fractionally out of alignment with the barrel, we're talking a fraction of a millimetre, but nonetheless worth mentioning.
