Edison Italic Nibs are Here!

[bgray]

Hi Pen Fans!

I'm very happy to announce that our 1.1mm and 1.5mnm Italic nibs are finally here!

These are steel nibs, and are available in the #6 size.

So this makes the Edison Nib offerings....

Steel #6 - XF, F, M, B, 1.1, 1.5.
18k #6 - XF, F, M, B
Steel #5 - XF, F, M, B, 1.5, 1.9, 2.3
18k #5 - F, M, B

For reference, the #6 nibs fit all of the standard sized pens. The #5 nibs fit the smaller pens such as the Pearlette, Mina, and Encore.

These nibs will be available on all Edison Pens. This includes the Production Line, so you will see these nibs being offered from our retailers as well.

These nibs can be purchased separately and be placed in current Edison Pens. Cost is $25. Email me (brian@edisonpen.com) to inquire.

And remember that these new italic nibs are available on the 2013 Limited Edition Morgan. (http://edisonpen.com/index.cfm/2013/3/21/2013-LE-Morgan-Purchasing-Window-is-Now-Open) The buying period for this pen ends on April 7th, so if you missed out on last years LE, now is your chance!

Definitely getting a 1.1 for my Pearl. I am assuming I would just need the nib and not the collar since mine is a bulb filler?

If you are going to order one spare for a bulb filler, be sure to make me aware of this. Bulb filler nibs require a certain treatment to the feed, housing, and attach a breather tube.

Edit - I think that I understand what you mean. You want the nib only with no feed, housing, etc, correct? We can do this, but we can't discount for the lack of feed or housing.

Or you can get the whole assembly equipped for a bulb filler and swap them out. Just unscrew.

Here's a video covering it....

Honestly, you might as well get the housing and feed. You'd have a some spare parts to tinker with or swap out if you need to in the future. And it's also less risk of mis-aligning the tines or feed when you are unscrewing rather than re-installing the nib.

Thanks!

That sounds good. Is there additional cost having it equipped for a bulb filler?

No difference. The alterations only take a minute or two.
