Pen Resurrection Saturday Ep 162 Conway-Stewart 84 Part 1

This is Part 1 of a two-part resurrection of a 1950s Conway-Stewart 84 lever-filler fountain pen. I'm taking this pen to the Dutch Pen Show 2026 in Utrecht, June 6-7, where I will be delivering a workshop on Vintage Fountain Pen Resurrection basics! Part 2 will be after I return from Europe, when I'll complete the restoration of this pen. Please feel free to use the chapters provided below to skip to various parts of the review.
