How Fine Are The Kaweko F And Ef

[synerr]

Hi,

 

Any experience on how fine the Kaweko F and EF are, say, compared to a Lamy F and EF or Platinum Preppy 0.3?

 

Considering a Kaweco Sport, I like the looks, where it will be mostly used for mathematics. So just single letters, symbols, numbers, superscripts and subscripts.

 

Thanks

For me the Kaweco F is similar to preppy 03. I usually like lines finer than this as I write small and usually fast.

Here's a useful link for comparing some nib widths.

My Kaweco F (on a Dia 2) is just slightly finer than the Lamy M. It is about the smoothest nib I have with the exception of the Parker 51 F and M which are both marginally smoother.

I got the Kaweco Sport (Mint) with an EF. I must say that I am blown away by its smoothness. Finding it draws a line somewhere in between the Lamy EF and F.

I have both F & EF IN Kaweco nibs. To me they run finer but smooth & very consistent.

Interesting. I recently bought a Kaweco Classic Sport in fine, and it has the least smooth nib of any of my pens. I found a thread elsewhere on this forum in which people were discussing what to do about a Kaweco nib that is initially very dry. I tried the trick, and it helped a bit, but I still find myself making excuses for the pen every time I write with it.
