EF (Extra-Fine)
Perfect for intricate details and precise writing, the EF nib creates a fine, delicate line. Ideal for those who prefer a sleek and sophisticated writing style.
F (Fine)
The Fine nib strikes a balance between precision and smoothness, providing a slightly broader line compared to the EF. Ideal for everyday writing tasks with a touch of elegance.
M (Medium)
Offering a classic line width, the Medium nib provides a smooth and consistent writing experience. Versatile and reliable, it's suitable for various writing styles and occasions.
B (Broad)
For bold statements and expressive strokes, the Broad nib delivers a generous flow of ink, resulting in thick, striking lines. Perfect for bold signatures and creative projects.
BB (Double Broad)
Double the width of the Broad nib, the BB nib produces even bolder lines, making a bold statement with every stroke. Ideal for calligraphy and bold lettering. The BB is the choice of nib grinders who customize specialty nibs.
Stub 1.1
The Stub 1.1 nib features a unique flat edge, creating varied line widths depending on the angle of the pen. This nib, with its 1.1mm width, offers a broad line on the downstroke and remains fine from east to west, making it perfect for calligraphy-style writing. Add flair and personality to your writing with the expressive strokes of the Stub 1.1 nib.
FF (Fine Flex)
Combining the precision of a fine nib with the flexibility to create line variation, the Extra FF nib offers a dynamic writing experience. Ideal for calligraphers and enthusiasts seeking expressive writing.
EFF (Extra Fine Flex)
The EFF nib provides the ultimate flexibility for fine, detailed writing with the ability to create subtle variations in line width. Perfect for intricate sketches and ornate lettering.
Needlepoint
If you're into planners such as Hobonichi, you'll know that the small grids don't always accommodate for larger sized nibs. A needlepoint is a great way to have a controlled writing to fit more into a smaller space.
Journaler
“medium stub grind, based on the vintage Esterbrook 9314M nib. The idea is that it’s smooth and friendly enough for everyday use, gives your writing some flair, all without being too huge for practical writing”
Mini Stub
The mini-stub is a great way to get those fine details and a bit of personality! With line variation and a bit of inky goodness in every line, you're going to love this nib option for longform writing and sketching alike.
The finer nibs (EF, F, Stub 1.1) are designed for detailed writing, offering precise lines for intricate work.
On the other hand, the broader nibs (B, BB) deliver a more generous flow of ink, ideal for bold statements and expressive strokes. The flex nibs (Extra FF, EFF) offer additional versatility, allowing for dynamic line variation and expressive writing styles.
