Left Hand Osmiroid Nibs, Fit Esterbrook


Alohamora

Recommended Posts

Hello,

 

I have some Osmiroid nibs for sale. These are unused old stock nibs. They fit Osmiroid 65 pens as well as Esterbrook J series pens -- any pen that takes the Esterbrook renew-point screw-in nib. "Rola" means it's a rolled metal tip.

 

$6 each and $2.50 (USA) shipping per order. I prefer PMs through FPN, but you can also try emailing through my profile page.

 

Specify --

Left hand regular Rola fine

Left hand regular Rola medium

Left hand italic fine

Left hand italic medium

 

I have multiples of each size

What does it look like when right handed writers use these nibs?

I was unable to get the italic nib to write without skipping as a right-hander. Holding it in my left hand ink flows smoothly, it seems like it works both overhand and underhand. I won't show you that one because my left-handed script looks like a four-year's writing. :embarrassed_smile:

 

Below is the LH medium Rola tip nib held right-handed. I had to hold it at an odd angle to get it to write, but once I found the needed angle it wrote smoothly.

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..

      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
