So I’ve been wanting to do one the EMF mods for a while. I really hated this nib so I figured if I ruined it the world would be a better place. I scalloped the wings, narrowed the tines, and thinned the tines slightly.
While you don’t get much line variation (you do get some) it dramatically changed the feel of the nib. This nib is so bouncy and cushiony. Maybe I’m biased because I did the work, but this could be one of the most enjoyable nibs I have now. I also smoothed the nib in a certain way that I’ve found makes it feel very similar to a Sailor. The combination of bounce and pencil like feedback makes this one of the most unique nibs I’ve used. It’s completely different from the platinum SF and those Nakaya elastic nibs.
