Pelikan M400 Nib

von Fraker · 2015-04-15T03:03:50+0000

I picked up a W. German Pelikan M400 at an estate sale and it has a broken nib. What would be the best fix for this? A new replacement? Repaired/retipped? Ground to an italic or cursive italic? I currently have a M200 nib in it but have heard that the 400 nibs are nice. Too bad my first one was damaged. Thank you, Rob F.

  I also picked up a TUZU. I quite like the blue color and basic Sailor steel nib. It's a good basic EDC at the Japanese price. It is a quite wet writer. I imagine lefties will enjoy the nib angle customization. I haven't tried playing with that aspect.

  Thanks for posting, great information on the Tuzu by Sailor. Cannot wait for it to appear on Amazon USA.
