Please read before purchasing
As was standard for this specific vintage Pilot production line there is no explicit alphabetical size marking such as F or M engraved on the visible part of the nib or pen body We have carefully determined the nib size to be Fine F based on a side by side comparison of the physical nib point shape and our actual writing tests which closely match the line width of a standard Japanese Fine F nib Please understand that this size classification is our careful estimation based on the pens writing performance We kindly ask for your understanding that minor subjective variations in line width or the absence of a physical stamp are natural characteristics of vintage items and we hope you will enjoy this pen as-is

Disclaimer on Writing Condition

In particular fountain pens have a specific sweet spot for writing therefore depending on your writing pressure the unique angle at which you hold the nib or how it contacts the paper the ink flow may become restricted or the ink may be difficult to come out During our writing test there was some slight ink skipping and temporary resistance in the ink flow By purchasing this item you acknowledge and agree that minor ink skipping hard starts or temporary ink flow issues may occur under your personal writing environment and these conditions do not constitute a product defect or item not as described
