    Thank you!!! I agree it's a lovely pen, but just too large for me for daily use. Sort of impractical as a pocket-carry option, which is what I'm basing my "keepers" on.

    Could you give measurements (length and diameter of the grip section) or some size comparison with well known pens?

    Additionally, what size of the nib does it use? standard JOWO #6?

    Some dimensions based on my calipers:

    Capped Length: 143.2mm
    Uncapped with Nib: 138.5mm
    Uncapped to Front of Section: 115.7mm
    Section Diameter (Smallest): 11.8mm
    Section Diameter (Largest, Near Threads): 12.7mm
    Section Diameter (Largest, At Front Flare): 12.7mm

    This pen isn't really made to post, but it will (fairly securely, I might add). Dimensions posted are:
    Posted Length with Nib: 178.5mm
    Posted Length to Front of Section: 153.5mm

    The pen takes a standard No. 6 JOWO Nib Unit.

    Bump. Lots of tire kickers but no takers. Open to reasonable offers.
