We can't recommend the Nikko G enough, especially for beginner calligraphers. These chrome-plated nibs have a perfect medium flex, making them forgiving and easy to use, while still producing a great balance of fine hairlines and thick swells.
The Nikko G is exceptionally smooth and will not snag or jump, holds a lot of ink, and is remarkably long-lasting. All of these qualities combined make this pointed nib user-friendly and encourage novice lettering artists to keep practicing.
Fits best into adjustable oblique holders such as our adjustable oblique holders. Suitable for Copperplate, Spencerian, and drawing. Recommended by Michael Sull. Also available with ink cage.
This nib is included in our Copperplate Sampler
Measurements: 36mm long x 5.5mm wide

LOVE!
Last year, I was able to test this nib in a Lettering class at my local art center, and i loved it immediately. The ink flows so nicely, and the nib itself doesn't "catch" like some pointed nibs. A new FAVE for sure!!

Nikko G
These nibs, for whatever reason, seem to get a bad rep amongst a lot of the well-known calligraphers, but I feel like this nib can do just about everything. You can get nice hairlines with minimal effort (depending on the paper and the ink of course), and the shading is easily controlled (does that make any sense?). I think this nib is perfect for everybody, especially a beginner. I almost forgot, these nibs seem to last substantially longer than anything else I've used, and hold up against being dropped, which is a must for me.
