Howdy all,
Figured since it was Saturday morning and I have nothing to do but drink coffee, I would offer up what may be an unpopular opinion:
I can't stand large nibs.
There, I said it. Not as a matter of performance, mind you, but of aesthetics. There's just something....off, to me, about #6 nibs on most pens. Nibs on modern pens are just too wide.
I know the general trend in pens right now is for longe pens, girthier barrels, and big, fat nibs to top it all off. The appeal is also apparent: you can stamp some pretty cool images into a larger nib. I just don't think a nib ought have buttresses.
Anyone else long for slimmer nib profiles?
