Hello Tom, 您好, 晚上好,

 

may I ask about the size of the sheet of paper you were writing on?

It's the only indicator for the line width, and the resulting size of the characters.

 

I'm asking because I wondered already in the thread on the O3B nib (your platinum 149).

I must admit that I struggle with nibs wider than M - my handwriting simply becomes unreadable in typical everyday use.

 

All the best,

sebastian

Hello Tom,

 

thanks a million. 145 x 206 mm is a hair smaller than A5.

Now I also no longer feel like a clumsy peasant, who knows pitchforks but no pencils.

 

:wacko:

 

I tried my best with the 149 in B, but couldn't get comfortable with it. So it went to Hamburg for a nib exchange to M.

I still have my 145 in B, currently loaded with a long cartridge of Edelstein Topas. The nib brings out the best of that ink ... (guess that's no surprise to you).

 

Cheers,

sebastian
