  • Great Nib 4

    Posted by Tumble on Feb 9th 2023

    Nearly identical to the Gillott 404 nib, it’s got similar flexibility (or lackthereof). It’s sturdiness offers a much more consistent line with little variation. It’s a great nib for drawing and writing certain scripts, and it holds up well to wear and tear over the years.
