First off, I love the new site! Even tho I'm a bit late  :P College and work take up all my time now-a-days! 

 

Been looking for a long, long time for this one, a Conklin size "S8". It's longer than the #75 and the nib is substantially larger than the number 7 as well.

Jiffypens, how does this compare to Watermans #18 and 20s?

I was under the impression that membership was by press gang at pen shows.

Compared to a #8 nib, it's pretty close in size. The #20s, I believe, are larger but I don't have a nib on hand to compare them.
