Frequently Asked Questions

Is the MAJOHN L1 suitable for everyday writing?

Yes. It is intended for everyday handwriting as well as English calligraphy practice. Use a light touch for finer writing and develop pressure control gradually when exploring line variation.

What line width does the nib produce?

The stated range is approximately 0.3–1.7 mm. This is a variable writing range, not a choice of separate nib sizes. Actual results depend on pressure, technique, ink and paper.

Is the nib made of solid gold?

No. The nib is described as gold-plated, which refers to its surface finish rather than solid-gold construction.

What does No. 6 / 35 mean?

No. 6 / 35 is the supplied nib size designation. It does not describe the written line width and should not be taken as a guarantee of compatibility with replacement nibs from other brands.

How long is the pen?

The stated length is 185 mm, with an elongated long-tail body design.

How is the pen filled?

The pen uses eyedropper filling, and an eyedropper is included for adding ink.

How should I use the flex nib?

Begin with light pressure and practise controlled strokes. Avoid excessive pressure or forcing the nib apart, as this can damage it. The maximum stated line width is not a target to force on every stroke.
