I describe any major faults, but often find it impossible to include a full appraisal of every flaw. Mechanical items are sold without guarantee. I am in the process of downsizing and this is a PERSONAL item from my diminishing collection of writing equipment, lighters, scientific items and wide range of interesting curios that were collected over many years.
