Bruce, I can only dream about owning a Parker like that. Beautiful!

Bill, you talk about "soft barrels", and it does seem like every Parker I've looked at that has dents is damascus, not fluid steel. Are they truely softer and if so why, assuming the wall thickness is the same.

I would guess it's the iron content of the damascus?
