The Hunt 56 is very similar to the Gillott 404 in stiffness and durability. A lot of pressure is needed to create big swells, and it can produce decent hairlines. Performs well on both smooth and textured papers. Calligraphers of all skill levels will enjoy this nib, but it is especially good for beginners.

This nib is included in our Copperplate Sampler

For more information about the performance of this nib, including tips for best use, comparative charts, and example artwork, read our blog post with Schin Loong from @openinkstand.

Measurements: 31mm long x 6mm wide

Discounts are as follows: $13.08/dozen, $144.00/gross

We ship worldwide! International orders are subject to all applicable customs & duty taxes & fees. These fees are not included in the shipping price.

Orders placed online and by phone generally ship within 48-72 business hours. Paper and Ink Arts is closed on Saturday & Sundays, so orders placed over the weekend will begin shipping on the following Monday.

If there is an item in your order that is out of stock, we will contact you via email when your order is packed to allow you the choice of having your other items shipped or having your entire order held until your backordered item arrives.

  • Nice thin lines 5

    I really like the thin consistency in the lines it can produce, I think it's fun for writing. It's also got a really cool color.
