In my review of the Piccolo I mentioned I reground the nib. It came to me with a stub grind already on it, but Lisa wanted a finer, more cursive italic grind to it. The result turned out to be about a 0.45mm cursive italic that's actually smooth enough for daily writing.
This image shows three writing samples. The top two, in Noodler's Walnut and Black, were done with the original grind. My regrind is at the bottom of the page in Noodler's Walnut.

Here's a copped and rearranged version to really show off the difference. The original grind writing samples are in the more orangish colored ink while my regrind is in the more brownish colored ink.
