Nib FINE OBLIQUE STUB #2314-F steel nib is smooth. It is a left foot. The 2314-F nib is catalogued as a Relief Fine Oblique or a Relief Fine Stub. The feed looks very good.
Condition Superior condition. The section has some handwear and there are a few tiny marks to the left of the clip and on the end of the barrel. Low handwear overall and a clear imprint. The pen has a nice finish and is shiny. The steel trim looks great. No cracks, dings, dents, personalization, or plating wear. We've restored the pen and it's working very well. The black mark on the barrel in the photo was some sort of residue that came off.
