Look towards the beginning of this thread. TWDPens (The Writing Desk) is an online retailer in Britain.

Thank you! Martini is selling all 2000 nibs for 95 Euro on

German eBay which runs to 115.00 - and seems a lot.

All Lamy pens that have gold nibs also have medium- and broad-oblique options (eg Imporium, dialog 3, scala piano black, cp1 PT etc). As mentioned above, you also have the option of an after-market 14k gold nib in an oblique point size.

Does the Dialog 3 with an oblique present a problem in use because of the clip being in the grip zone?

 

Also, anybody have any idea why I can't find any Lamy 2000 oblique for sale in the US?

Possibly. I think it's probably something you'd have to try.

Sorry, don't know the answer to that one. Perhaps the new Lamy distributor will do a better job than the previous one.

Here's the Lamy OB steel I got at the end of last year. Goulet is trying to get more.

Wow, that looks quite stubby to me...

 

But that angle is rather steep..

They didn't stop! Goulet is working on getting more.

 

They didn't stop with gold nibs for the 2000, Studio and Dialog, still offering for both styles the OM and OB; but they did stop producing the obliques on the steel series.

 

There's still NOS in various places, but it comes at a premium...

 

Hopefully the Goulet's can put their magic to work!

      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
