Tom's Studio Fountain Pen Nibs

Pro-Flex - An extra-inky tip. 

Extra Fine Semi-Flex - A beautiful extra fine fountain pen nib with flex! This is a great middle-ground between the Pro Flex and our classic fountain pen nib, with its smooth writing experience and minimal maintenance. By applying a little pressure the nib will flex from 0.5mm to 1.5mm.

Fine - A springy and smooth nib perfect for delicate thin strokes, with a smidge of flex if you're feeling creative.

Medium - The go-to nib for the author, journaller or note-taker. This is a firm and consistent nib for everyday writing.

Cursive Italic Fountain Pen Nib - A specialized nib that is designed to produce line variations in handwriting. It is a type of italic nib that has a smooth, rounded tip that is slightly flattened on the sides. This flattening creates two distinct writing surfaces: a broader downstroke (1mm(+-0.1)) and a thinner horizontal stroke (hairline - 0.2 mm).

Architect Fountain Pen Nib - This is the opposite of the Italic nib, with a broad cross stroke and a thin down stroke. It's Tom's & Caroline's personal favorite - the effortless big juicy lines make it my go-to for sketching and everyday use. It's a BB (double broad), which means it has nice line variation and strokes around 1.2mm at it's thickest (horizontal) and 0.3mm on the downstroke. You can also use the nib upside down for a super fine hairline stroke.

The term "cursive" refers to the flowing nature of the script that is produced by this type of nib. The BB designation stands for "double broad," indicating that the nib produces a broad line that is twice as wide as a standard broad nib. With practice the cursive italic nib can produce stunning handwriting that is both distinctive and elegant.
