Fosfor Bombay-Storm Version

I don't really like Schmidt nibs that much and haven't used JoWo.

Is there any other nib choice he offers? Any 14k gold nib? Or maybe pilot? I like pilot nibs a lot, more than the Nakaya nib.

 

Edit: Also, that's a really good looking pen. Congrats on your new acquisition.

I believe pilot nibs are not sold loose. Besides, he will also require the feed.

Thanks for the suggestion.

Here are the links to get pilot nibs:

 

LINK 1 - Custom 912 Nibs

LINK 2 - Falcon Nibs

He offers #5 and #6 Jowo nibs also. I think he would also have gold nibs from Jowo

Dhruv - I believe Schmidt does not manufacture its nibs. They are sourced from JoWo or Bock and they assemble the nib unit. You can get a Bock gold/Titanium nib unit as per your choice of size+feed from some of the online sellers. edison, beaufortink (a google search will land up a few).

 

Since Bock also supplies nibs for GvFC, Delta, Visconti , Pelikan (now it's insourced).. I believe these nibs might be to your liking.

I contacted him a month or two ago and he said that he uses Schmidt nibs in his pens, JoWo nibs can also be used but would cost extra, which i don't mind.

 

Thanks for other suggestions.

To each his own, I guess. The stepdown isn't as bad as it looks. Fosfor has other designs which might fancy you

I like the design of the Bangalore a lot more. I also like the resins more in the brighter colors.
