What does it mean?

[edit]

Can anybody explain what the name means? Why is it called "Duofold"?--Cancun771 13:22, 31 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Nobody knows for certain. There are lots of reasons why it's called the 'duofold'. In plain English, 'Duofold' literally means 'two-fold'. Two, for one. Duofolds were sold as 'regular' pens, but also as 'desk' pens. You could remove the barrel (or blind-cap at the top), and screw in a tapered end, which would turn it into a desk pen. That's only one possible answer though. There are lots. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Shangas (talkcontribs) 02:20, 30 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation needed

[edit]

A disambiguation page is needed. Duofold automatically redirects here to Parker Duofold, but Duofold was also the brand name of a historical long-underwear company, the Duofold Health Underwear Company. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 73.221.71.8 (talk) 13:31, 1 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
