I bought my first MB Classique just into this New Year, with an M nib, from an excellent dealer in Oxford, UK. Despite quite extensive writing with a F nib in the shop, sitting and standing up, on MB paper and some "Oxford Black", I settled for the M nib and came away with a smile on my New Year face. The F nib I had tried was a little scratchy, and inked up only with dipping into a bottle of MB black ink, while the M nib was smoother and rather wetter.
However, I've returned the pen to MB (Bond Street, London) within the advertised six weeks "cooling off" exchange time, and have asked specifically for a smooth F nib.
I'll try and let you know how I get on.
Best wishes to all FPGs.
