Very very smooth! This nib can take dry inks very well, and leaves a rich, bold stroke on the page no matter what you're using. This will, however, bleed through on cheaper papers due to the volume of ink you're putting down. Looks the best with larger lettering, and tends to drown letters that are written smaller (not so good for college-ruled paper, for example.)

I highly recommend this size for people that write large letters/lines. If you write with a more average letter size, try the "fine" size. For small, spidery letters, go with the extra-fine.

Butter smooth! The smoothness change compared to the original EF on my Safari was remarkable. It's much wetter, though. While that makes it much smoother, it also means it's more picky on some papers. Cheaper papers will feather more readily.

While it wasn't my favorite thickness, the smoothness deserves 5 stars by itself. Glides along the page effortlessly, even on cheap paper. Has a very wet line, which is fine as long as you don't drag your hand across it too early! Leaves a surprisingly thick mark, which is great if you write in large lettering - not good if you tend to write smaller or take notes on college-ruled paper... things can get a little cramped.

Overall very good though. Recommended for those that write large.
