The last pen I got from Franklin-Christoph with a M nib wrote thinner then their chart said and had to have the nib exchanged for a B. They said the last batch of nibs from Jowo ran fine. So it can come down to what batch your nib gets pulled from. It's best to buy from a c...
by simple visual comparison of the tipping/point. I do acknowledge that a B nib if soft or sort of flexible can draw a line of 2x, 3x on paper, but this would still be a B nib, not a 2B or a 3B. Flexibility I guess is another way of measuring or considerin...
✒️New Fountain pen from @benupen Was so excited to test out this pen! This is the 🐾 Playful Paws fountain pen from the Euphoria collection. You can purchase this in a fine, medium, or broad nib. Out of the box, this pen includes a standard converter and a deep blue in cartr...
Well after the courier messing up and taking 3 attempts to get it to me my A nib is finally here. and after cleaning it I decided to run it in a side by side comparison with my other 45 nibs and 2 of my 3776's Unfortunately the scanner made a mess of the colour reproduction...
While it is a little unclear as to what Lamy meant by the figures given in that diagram you have copied from itsnib guidepage, you are most certainly misinterpreting the figures given by Platinum Pen in its chart of nib width grades. ...

The I also have the Pilot Con-20 with the hoop, white tip, and blue sac just like the one in Hari's post. It came with a long Pilot Elite with a steel nib made in the 80's. The pen came from Japan. I think the fit and finish is actually quite nice. Pilot's Con-20 convert...
Lovely pen, ink, and hand! Thank you. Fountain pens are my preferredCOLOR DELIVERY SYSTEM(in part because crayons melt in Las Vegas). Create aGhostly Avatarand I'll send you a letter. Check out some Ink comparisons:The Great PPS Comparison ...
Cult pens is a great place to buy Pelikan pens and I have bought from them a number of times. There is one drawback for a US buyer is that Pelikan USA/Chartpak does not honor the nib exchange and warranty service if you don't buy from a US dealer. There is not much to go wrong...
