Full Version: Nib Choices for Current Production Duofold Centennial

Can someone point me to a website/source for a comprehensive listing of nib grades available for current production Duofold Centennials, including the Trade abbreviations/numbers they are known by. My issue is for eg, whenPelikan says OBB it means oblique Double Broad whereas Parker means OB(lique)B(road) when it says OBB. I love the braoder no. 95 nib on the older Duofolds but dont know its modern day equivalent. In the same way when someone sells an OS2 on ebay, I have no idea what type of nib it is! Pls help with a website address that demystifies and lists all grades of nib on offer. Thanks for reading. Cheers, Rajesh
