    I love the boldness of these lines! (This is from my goulet receipt. Lol )

    Any guess on what size nib would produce this?

    I'm guessing a stub, but I'm also pretty new to this.

    You can probably ask them!

    Yeah stub, not crisp enough to be an italic.

    Looks like a stub to me.

    My 1.5 stub writes about as fat as that. My guess also 1.1 or 1.5 stub.

    Welcome to the rabbit hole... I started with stubs, got hooked and now I'm having such custom italics ground that certain nib meisters apparently gossip about me. :P It's a slippery but oh so fun slope.

    I get the impression that its at least 1.5, either a stub or music nib, the latter because it looks like a pretty wet line.
