Special nib grinds by Meltem Hazarhun (@amphorastale), who ground our Kaweco pens recently.
Dentist (Soft Architect)
Reminiscent of the Architect nib, the Dentist nib stands out for its softer feel, providing a smoother writing experience with minimal feedback and reduced scratchiness. It's excellent for everyday writing tasks. Thin on the down stroke and wide on the side stroke.
Bilateral (Fude Italic)
This unique nib, known as a Fude Italic, is expertly shaped from a 1.1 nib. It offers versatility with its double-sided design, featuring a Fude style on one end and an Italic style on the other.
Fude Nib
Fude means 'bent' in Japanese. These are specialized nibs bent at the tip to give it a curved or rounded surface area.
Fine Italic
A smoother version of the formal italic. Suitable for everyday use and notetaking. Fine Italic has fewer line variations and is great for small handwriting.
Medium Italic
A smoother version of the formal italic. Suitable for everyday use and notetaking. Still a very common nib with more line variations.
Broad Italic
A smoother version of the formal italic. Suitable for everyday use and notetaking. Almost the best line variations.
Double Broad Italic
A smoother version of the formal italic. Suitable for everyday use and big handwriting. The best line variation. Compare to 1.1 standard nib IBB has more line variation and more feedback.
Oblique Medium
Allows for one that rotates their pen slightly. Standard 15 degree oblique.
Oblique Broad
Allows for one that rotates their pen slightly. Standard 15-degree oblique.
Oblique Double Broad
Allows for one that rotates their pen slightly. Standard 15-degree oblique.
