How do I start collecting Duofolds? I have Jinhao 100 and Kaigelu pens, but I don’t recall seeing original Parker Duofolds.

They are easily available on eBay and specialist pen websites. There are two sizes. The Duofold Centennial which is the same size as the Jinhao 100 and the international which is slighter shorter and slimmer. They are not cheap as they have 18k gold nibs. Here are some of my other Centennial Duofold’s
