    Default WTB No 6 Replacement nibs

    Hey Everyone,

    I'm looking to buy some reasonably priced No 6 nibs, material doesn't matter. Steel preferred because of price. Just looking for nibs with no tine damage. Want to try a new nib on my Ahabs with ebonite feed I modified.

    I know I can buy them retail (JoWo, Bock, etc). Wondering if anyone has a few they no longer use and are willing to part with them.

    Thanks for looking,
    Dave

    There are old Conklin M nibs for sale on ebay for good price. They are Bock nibs and work write nicely.
    Will post the link when I am near a better sevice.
    Try searching Conklin Bock and #6 nib.

    #6 JoWo nibs are available from:
    fpnibs.com (Spain) (I just ordered a couple--ground to PO, and I'm eager to see how they are!)
    fprevolution.com (India) (I ordered a coupla/few, and the ones that fit were super tight. I have the EF in a Danitrio Fellowship, and I like it. Again, tight fit.)
    gouletpens.com (USA) (I've ordered a few times from here when I've ordered other merchandise. Easy peasy.)
    meisternibs.com (USA) (Not sure of the URL. This is Brian Gray's, of Edison Pens, nib shop, I guess. No experience, but I've heard good things.)

    I'm sure there are many more. These are the ones that popped into mind immediately.

    The Birmingham Pen Company sells #6 Knox nibs. I have a couple of them. I used one in my Ahab. They also sell Nemosyn nibs and I have a .6mm Re-entry nib which is just a flame anodization more for looks. I replaced the nib in my Delta Serena with that .6mm. It's a fun nib. https://www.birminghampens.com/collections/nibs

    I bought My( above Post ) nibs Nimosine / Knox ( they are similer to Jowo,from the same German mass generic Nib manufacture ) from https://www.birminghampens.com/collections/nibs. Ultimately I had to pay import tax to get them from from USA to UK.

    Wonderful list, and may I add beaufortink.co.uk as a source for Bock nibs (numbers 5, 6, and 8).
