Conklin All-American (Orange)

Conklin All American

Color: Orange
Material: Resin

Filler: Cartridge/Converter
Date c. ca. 2015

Nib: Steel, Flex (ish)
Working? Yes

A big, fairly heavy pen, in a stunning orange marbled resin. (Still love orange pens…) Luscious writer, though like most Conklins & Monteverdes (or most brand new modern pens, really), it takes a bit of TLC when new. Totally worth it! I’m less thrilled with Conklin’s ‘omniflex’ nib; it is a bit too stiff to flex easily, and it seems to lack the ‘spring’ to open up and then close again. I have another omniflex on a Duragraph, and the tines never quite seemed to come back together.
