Picked up this Oversized WASP "The Clipper" with a #7 nib that appears to be a semiflex Fine on the normal side, and an XXF on the reversible side. Writes really well as I've been trying it out with some Montblanc Irish Green.



Shown in the middle of this line up to compare its size, next to a Sheaffer Imperial IV as well as a Sheaffer Balance (Standard Size) in Ebonized Pearl Flakes with a Vac-Fil. (Waterman 55 on the far right, and a standard size Wahl/Eversharp Doric on the left with a #4 personal point nib).

This is the second WASP pen I have held, the previous one being the brown circuitboard but I returned it due to a crack in the barrel that was not noted by the seller. Shown at the far right, coincidently was also a "The Clipper" :

I have to say that these are the kind of pens I like to see!

What a monster!

You have a nice little collection there. I love the ebonized pearl balance. Must find a nib for mine :-)
