MB 149 Nib grinding or replacement

[John Earland]

Hi everyone,
Can someone help with a query I have? I have a 149 Medium but would like an Extra Fine nib. Do I have to buy a new nib or could I get it reground? If so, do you know of anyone reliable who could do it? I've read about John Sorowka but I don't have his contact details.
I'd really appreciate your help
Best wishes
John

Hi

Yes you can have it re-ground, what country do you live in, its easier to make recommendations once we know where you live.

There are quite a few options if you are in America but not so many if in Europe or the Far East.

I'd start by contacting Battersea Pen Home. And welcome home. Pull up a stump and set a spell.

Hi Paul,
Thanks for getting back me. I live in the UK-North Yorkshire.
Thanks
John

I'll PM the OP with contact details for John Sorowka.

John has ground three nibs for me, but no affiliation other than a happy customer.

That's fantastic! If you could that would be great. The alternative is paying MB for a new nib-might as well get a new pen!
Thanks
John
