Welcome To The Broad Side...

The IB on the M400 is also an amazing nib. Mine came perfectly tuned, smooth with lots of line variation. Its a true pleasure to use

Hi Zaddick , after all those broad broader broadest shovel nibs that you have hoarded, what else remains left on the earth that you need to get in gear ??? We are curious... lol

 

That plain steel 2.3 Kawco is for doodling or clearing the snow ?

Many new treasures are left to discover, some of which I am waiting for the right person to create for me. I have bought a few pens, but been remiss about keeping this thread up to date. Instagram is so much easier to post photos.

It's not as gorgeous as some of the nibs in this thread, but Osmiroid's italic nibs are great for calligraphy practice!

Pelikan M600 with the recently arrived 1950's Pelikan 400 OB nib. The broad nib suits this pen as it is my largest Pelikan. The nib is crazy though. I would mark it as a double broad. Sorry for the picture, bad lights.

Thank you for sharing the beautiful pictures of Broad nibs.

 

Keep them coming!

 

Thank you for mentioning some of the inexpensive options like Kaweko.

Lovely work from a nice nib, inkysloth. Your italics and broads always define great taste, Zaddick!

That MB nib is really a head turner Zaddick. Congrats !

[zaddick]

Thank you both for the kind words. I am excited to finally have the Homer in hand after lots of back and forth with MB.

These are the Broad, OB and stub nibs that are currently inked.

Not really sure what the nib is in the 51 Special. But the line it puts down seems to be wider than the 3776 and close to the OB in the M200.

OBB - for those rare days when an O3B seems excessive
