Pens similar in size to No Nonsense

I am really liking my SNN but am wondering what other pens (non-cartridge) are out there of similar size. :blushing: Perhaps someday I will get something in a nice cursive italic. The NN has a medium italic that gives me the variation I like, but is almost too broad for everyday writing and it has an occasional tendency to go dry. Still better than the Ahab though.

Enable away as this will just be a list to file away for future reference for when a long lost rich uncle leaves me money.

Well, that is a good size. How about the original lever-filled Sheaffer that your pen was patterned after? I took a quick snapshot.

Two flat-tops from the 1920s next to an ivory No-Nonsense:

The TWSBI 580 is about 1/4" longer capped, is a large capacity piston-filler, and has a nice variety of nibs available. A Pelikan M600 is a similar size.
