Shouldn’t you then, for your part, give Duofold a friendly trial? ‘We know the surprise that’s in store when you grasp its over- size, business-like barrel and feel its balanced swing. But not till you try its super-smooth point on paper will your delight glow brightest. Writing via Duofold gives thought free rein!
