I really need some help. I like the Custom 823 very much, but it's a strain on my pocketbook, and I would hate to get it wrong.
I don't know which nib to select. My Lamy 2000, medium is a little broad for my tastes, however I thought the 2000 fine a little thin at one time and gave it to my daughter. If I had to choose between the two I would go back to the fine. I have read that Japanese pens tend to run one size finer than their European counterparts. Is that true of this model? The writing samples I have seen on the internet do not seem to bear this out.
I have a Sheaffer, Legacy I bought 15-20 years ago. It has an 18k, medium, nib. It writes like butter, but is too Broad.
Any direction would be greatly appreciated.
