Recommend a "beginner's" oblique nib holder

[bluesea]

I'm finally looking to change, mostly because I'm out of practice, and the oblique should help until I feel more natural w/elbow in.

Looking for a holder that will last a couple + years, mostly for Zebra G (sometimes Nikko G).

There are a few oblique holders that mention fitting these nibs on this page: https://www.johnnealbooks.com/prod_d...blique-holders
I have no experience using them. I just keep finding this site for information in my own search, so I can't recommend them per say.

The Hourglas oblique is quite a good place to start as it has an adjustable flange that can accommodate a variety of nibs. You can get them from http://www.paperinkarts.com/calligra...n-holders.html
There are other options on the page. (disclaimer: just a happy customer, and I was buying form overseas).

There are also plenty of options available if you search for 'oblique holder' on Etsy, though the caveat here is two-fold: 1. You cannot always tell if some of the offerings are made by people who actually have any knowledge/skills in using an oblique, and 2. the price of some exceeds that of the reputable custom makers such as Chris Yoke - in which case you may as well contact him (as I have done)!

Thanks guys, for a great start! I'll probably go back to the Nikko G as the more easier writing nib.

P.S. Decided to take a peek at Yoke pen Co. Whoa...

This is what I used. All of $15

The 'hourglass' is much more expensive and sometime in rather short supply.

Both Parker and Ink Arts and John Neil are good places to browse.
Note that nib sizes are different, so you may have to adjust the flange to fit the nib.
If you buy from John Neil, I think you can specify which nib you use and buy the oblique that is preadusted to fit that nib.
