Toot

Help me out here, fountain pen community. I thought there was a site listing different models, filterable by various measurements like grip diameter. I can't find it, though. Here's why I'm asking:

I showed a coworker a page of notes written with the Nitrogen vial I just opened up.

Some time later, she admitted that she wants to get a fountain pen because of the variety of inks available, but she doesn't like how big most fountain pens are. She said she strongly prefers the slim body and rubberized grip of a Sharpie S-Gel pen, and asked if I had any suggestions. I did not. After searching for half an hour online, I still don't. Any help?

@squeakyears

nibs.com has dimensions but not in a table. you have to go into each pen and then it lists details. with jetpens.com, you can do search for fountain pens and limit by diameter and length there.

@squeakyears I like Goulet for this. You can filter pens by a lot of criteria, Grip Diameter is one of these.

@squeakyears I do like my Lamy cp1 for taking with me. The grip diameter is 9mm, so just a little thicker than a pencil, but it's not rubberised
