That's serious nibbage on that yellow Bexley.

Yes the Bexley 18K nibs are great, they have a slight springiness due their length that provides nice feedback when you write.

You know, I have never tried a Lamy B nib. Is it a round nib?

The two Pelikan nibs look pretty.

The Lamy nib looks rather austere compared to the others. Interestingly both my Bs have the raise blob on the top of the nib extending back slightly further than your one.

It is round but this one is not a blobby as my other one, the line it produces with the Montegrappa ink is not much broader that most of my medium nibs. I have be temped to try turn this nib into an italic or a stub italic.

I do like the single toned Pelikan nibs - more old school than their two toned ones. The EF is a M250 nib that was customised for flex by Richard Binder.
