Biltwell is a brand that I've encountered 3 times to be exact. It's pretty uncommon and always with good quality nib. On this pen, the clip is marked Biltwell but the nib is simply marked no.3 14K. Without the word "Warranted" I can only assume that this is indeed an original Biltwell nib that happens to not have the brand engraved on it.
Cosmetics: Very handsome in deep green marble. All trims are complete and buffs out nicely.
Condition: Restored. I put the biggest ink sac inside. Took out the nib and feed.
Nib: An F (fine) nib with a soft feeling when writing. At a certain angle it becomes a medium nib. It's also a full-flex going from F to BBB. See the writing sample.
Price: $125 now $115 OBO
