Weird Estie Nib

[leicamaster]

From what I've seen so far (with my limited exposure!), the 83xx nibs with over-feeds are on the Pennants. I've seen reference to the 8361(exfine),8363(medium & steno), 8364(broad), and 8365(steno) either in person or c/o MP listings. That leaves an 8362 to fill in the gap. Is this nib out there as well and what is it?

Check https://www.fountainpennetwork.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=119393&view=findpost&p=1181778 It has a photo of 8362 and says FLEXFINE (dont breath too hard for the "FLEX" part ).

 

Yes, I sold one here earlier this year, and the term "Flexible" is not something I would use to describe it.

 

I have also seen Stenos, Mediums, fine, X-fine, but no broad models.

 

It says broad but its as thin as could be

Be careful in buying Wearevers thinking that all you got to do is screw the Wearever nib out and plop it into your Eastie.

 

I bought a box of Easties and Wearevers on Ebay with that idea, knowing some of the Easties did not have a nib.

 

Not a single of the Wearevers had a screw out nib.

 

Those Wearever screw in pens must have been made for a Wearever pen I do not have. I have a couple of Wearever top of the line, late 38-40, and a couple of 40's Pacemaker barrels also. They don't screw out in the the Zenith's, nor do the ones from the 60's,

 

 

Plan B.....well, four of the Wearevers were well worth saving coming from 1939-40, and there is a extra fine nib on the fake Wearever Parker 51 (banana pen), that is going to end up on one of those 1939 Wearevers, come the day. One Wearver from mid sixties was just fine and in my wife's fav color...so all was not lost. I even just bought a big bottle of Lamy Turquoise ink for it...well she can use my ink; I'm not stingy.

 

I have been running months behind ordering sacs, on account I bought a Pelikan 605, a 400 and a Cross Townsend set, instead.

I can not resist a great sale on a good pen it turns out.
