Review: Great pen! - Beautiful orange color, nice thick section, good weight, the cap posts well, the nib is gorgeous and writes a fine to medium line, i bought the fine point, the nib works, no skipping or hard starts, high quality product, comes with a converter, comfortable to hold, i got it for an incredibly low price ($225 USD), this is everything you want in a flagship pen, smooth nib, posts well, thick comfortable grip section, easy to fill with bottled ink, from top to bottom is a professional looking elite pen that can used in the office, school or in your scriptorium, keep it somewhere safe or with you at all times and never lend it to anyone for any reason, it's your pen protect it at all costs Review: Superb quality, detail, value, and a fantastic writer - Every once in a while a really great deal comes along. To wit, the Parker Duofold Centennial Big Red is such a deal. In the world of high end, high quality fountain pens, this Big Red is a fantastic deceptive sleeper. IMHO, today Parker is thought of in a historical aspect as a legacy brand. Indeed, the word “vintage” finds its way into the title description for this particular fountain pen. Worry not - Old School Rules! You would be hard pressed to find a better writing fountain pen than the venerable Big Red. Color me definitely impressed! The Big Red in particular takes attention to detail to an even higher level. When writing with nib to paper, the Big Red’s barrel engraving is viewable for reading - not hidden underneath, not obscured on the side - but, aligned up and presentable as you’re writing. Very cool! Other than writing, fit in the hand is most important to me, and here the Big Red really excels. The Big Red’s grip section is stellar, contouring down to a moderate flare at the end. Brilliant! For comparison, the flare at the end of the grip section on my Sailor Realo 1911 and Pelikan Souverän M805 are less pronounced, and my Aurora Optima is more pronounced. The Big Red hits the sweet spot. I have been writing up a storm since receiving mine. In person, the aesthetic of the Big Red reminds me of a beautiful MB Hemingway I missed out on years ago. It’s your loss if you don’t pull the trigger on a Big Red; I am pleased as punch I did. ## Features - Emblem of the Parker tradition of quality craftsmanship since 1921 - Centennial Size fountain pen with larger barrel, cap, and nib - Solid velvet black precious resin barrel with 23-carat gold-plated trims - 18-carat solid gold bi-tonal rhodium-plated nib - Fine nib; black ink ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B01BM3TCJI | | Additional Features | Refillable | | Age Range (Description) | Adult | | Age Range Description | Adult | | Best Sellers Rank | #247,654 in Office Products ( See Top 100 in Office Products ) #1,009 in Fountain Pens | | Body Shape | Round | | Brand | Parker | | Brand Name | Parker | | Closure Type | Click-Off Cap | | Color | black - gold plated finish | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 266 Reviews | | Drill Point | Fine | | Global Trade Identification Number | 03501179313818 | | Grip Type | Round grip made of glossy black precious resin | | Hand Orientation | Ambidextrous | | Hardness | F | | Included Components | Convertor with Black Ink, Fountain Pen, Luxury Gift Box | | Ink Base | Water | | Ink Color | Gold,Black | | Item Dimensions | 7.48 x 4.72 x 1.81 inches | | Item Weight | 29 g | | Line Size | 0.3mm | | Manufacturer | Newell Rubbermaid Office | | Material | Resin | | Material Type | Resin | | Model Name | DUO CLA | | Model Number | 1931381 | | Pattern | standard body | | Recommended Uses For Product | Calligraphy | | Style | fine nib | | Unit Count | 1 Count | | Warranty Description | Your Parker writing instrument is guarranteed for two years from the date of original purchase against defects in materials or workmanship.

I had the opportunity to test both pens, compare and contrast the two. The Duofold exhibited all of the things I expected from a cheap Chinese pen: skips, hard starts, inconsistent ink flow, and a line that looked more like a broad nib. I wasn't totally surprised, because plenty of reviewers have said the same thing about the Duofolds they received...so, THAT Duofold was returned for a refund. The Jinhao 100, however, turned out to be a very good, smooth writing pen, with an Asian medium-fine/western fine line, so it'll stay in my collection. But I couldn't leave well enough alone, and I wanted to give Parker a chance to redeem themselves. I ordered the pen with a fine nib this time, and kept my fingers crossed...and was blown away! The fine nib writes a generous fine line and is super smooth with Parker Quink ink on 90gsm copier paper. This Parker pen writes as well as my Pilot Custom 823 and Diplomat Aero pens. The nib is bouncy, and with a little (!) pressure, you can get some line variation. Keep in mind, the Duofold was designed to make copies using carbon paper before ballpoint pens were in everyone's hands, so it needed to be pushed hard enough to make a carbon copy without splaying the tines. And the new version of the Duofold holds true to that design spec. I'm glad that I gave Parker a second chance, and that I was very lucky to get a pen with a perfectly tuned nib. ## Frequently Bought Together - Parker Duofold Centennial Fountain Pen, Classic Black with Gold Trim, Fine Solid Gold Nib, Black Ink and Convertor (1931381) - PARKER QUINK Mini Fountain Pen Ink Refill Cartridges, Black, 6 Count - PARKER QUINK Ink Bottle, Blue-Black, 57 ml --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/41052660-duofold-centennial-fountain-pen-classic-black-with-gold-trim-fine](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/41052660-duofold-centennial-fountain-pen-classic-black-with-gold-trim-fine) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-08-17*
