Hello all, I recently joined, looking for a Reddit alternative.

This past weekend I had no intention of buying a new pen, but happened upon a sale I wasn’t able to pass up. Here is my latest addition, which arrived less than an hour ago.

      Thank you!

      Yes, the nib is a fine. I have a couple Pilot fine nibs and really like that size. I thought about getting this pen in extra fine, especially because I read Pelikan nibs run large, even relative to other western nibs. But so far I’m happy with the fine. I find my writing still fits in my preferred ruling, 5mm dot grid. And I get a little more ink shading and some variety among my nibs.

      The pen is a little on the shorter side, but I can use it unposted if I want. I consider my hands to be medium sized and the very back of the barrel, before reaching the gold bands rests on my hand. It posts well too.
