I am selling some of my recently repaired pen stock. I have conducted all repairs on this pens myself. I am not a professional pen restorer, however, I have repaired quite a few of my own pens and have recently begun to sell off some of the more cosmetically sound pens especially those I do not use. I have resacced this pen with the appropriate sac according to Richard Binder's reference pages the Snorkel has new O-ring and Point Gasket and pen has been cleaned and soaked prior to repair. The sac was tested first with water then with ink to ensure is would write to the best of its abilities and the feed could keep up with fast writing. Finally I cleaned and polished these pens to the best of my ability.

Sheaffer's Snorkel Admiral - Pastel Blue with a 14kt No. 5 fine nib. The nib exhibits slight line variation under light pressure but is not flexible, it writes a very fine line though I would say it is a little too broad to be labeled EF. All new seals have been lubricated properly. Snorkel system was tested with water and finally with in. It writes nicely. The pen shows its age well, though it has less than the usual micro-scratches and is free of teeth marks or large scratches.-[SOLD]
