I think I have few pens on Stub nibs that deserves. to add in to this great Thread!

 

I am not really into stubs But to Fine line pens. But my latest add into my Pens collection is a Modern Music Stub By Salors. To be honest Today being my second day with this pen ( I received it just Yestaerday ) I have decided to Grind it into a medium Cursive Italic OB . Reason is it skips a lot and behaves very badly. I have tried a Micro Mesh. to get some feed back but it is the worse nib I got from my pens.

Addendum: I just discovered that the much less expensive steel-nibbed version of the Momento Zero can be had with a stub nib. I ordered one from fontoplumo dot com. I'll post a review when it arrives.

Amberlea, I love that ink - how does it compare with Montblanc Antoine de Saint-Exupéry (Encre du Desert)? And of course Bexley Stub nibs are invariably fantastic and among my favorites. As far as it looking too small, could it be seated to far into the section? DAVID

That is the cheapo Pelikan cartridge. I picked up some NOS at Pendemonium. It is very similar to MB's new Psychedelic Purple. AdSE is similar to the vintage burgundy.

 

As for the nib, I may want to put it into the Bexley, so I'll probably add another nib to this pen. I wish I knew who made it.

This is the blue ink I'm looking for. Could I ask what manufacturer and color it is?

Did you see ...

 

Haha, yes I did, thanks for outing me as a purveyor of stub nibs! You remember I have a right of first refusal on that pen, don't you?!

 

 

 

Great nibs! I especially like to see them inked.

Can you tell us what is being used in that picture to hold your pens? It looks really interesting.

David, I have purchased four of them since then and love them all, but my favorite is the one from you. I haven't asked to be buried with it .....so if it ever leaves my hands, I'll tell the kids that it needs to go back to you.

It looks great as a backdrop for photos! From an earlier shot I thought it was some sort of pen tray made of wood skewers, which turns out to be not for off the mark, but I really like the way it shows off your pens.

Need any help with legal language on that?

That blue ink is exquisite. Which ink is it?

 

Cheers,David.

I am amazed at the handwriting so many of you have. It is truly artwork. Mine is ... something else.

[amberleadavis]

Wow that pen is a beauty.

Thanks. The pic really doesn't show it very well at all, I'm afraid. It's faceted with shimmering dark purple in the black. When the light hits it, the silver really pops, with the purple a nice secondary.
