The nib unit of the new ASC Studio fountain pen


Ugh, the feed looks like a Chinese Jinhao. So if the steel nib is also from China it's not good for Omas heir.

Is the pattern on the nib embossing or laser engraving? How much is the new one ASC with steel nib now?

@pomperopero , thanks for sharing.

Yes, they do look like chinese Jinhao. But Jinhao feeds provide a wet ink flow. 
In my humble opinion, these ABS feeds perform as well as the Jinhao ones.

 

The nib looks laser engraved.

I paid 170Euros for this model.

 

Kind regards.

Thanks. As Athos said (from The Three Musketeers): "this is a much for Athos(Jinhao), but too little for the comte de La Fère(OMAS)" :)

(By the way, I tried to click on your link but my security software would not let me proceed, and gave me this message: This server could not prove that it is lenskiy.org; its security certificate is not trusted by your computer's operating system. This may be caused by a misconfiguration or an attacker intercepting your connection.

 

I tried it with a couple of different links on this page and they all gave the same result.)

 

I found out what was the reason for this behavior: after the replacement of the site engine in November and the update, the server unsupporting show the images with address like http://, so all links were replaced to https://. But if the server-host does not support this format (like my site on WordPress), then the browser will get a "secure connection error". Now I am working to fixing all the link to my site, and this takes time. Anyway you can change in link string https to http and all will be work fine:)

Great job!

Do I understand correctly that this is a new Tibaldi from a modern, not expensive series? Is it cartridge\converter system? Do I understand correctly that this is an ebonite feed? What are your impressions of the pen?

Thanks for your kind words. I really apreciate them.

 

This is the relaunched Tibaldi. The N60 model comes with a cartridge/converter filling system and ebonite feeder.

In my hands I feel it like I'm writing with an expensive pen. Good quality finishes and well-made. There are no sharp bits, gaps, or rough seams. It's bigger in size than what I expected.

The feeder seems to have a wide channel, but it provides less ink than what is espected for an ebonite feed. This is the sencond Tibaldi pen I test with the same ink-flow. I wish it was wetter writer, but that's because I adore juicy nibs.

Despite this, I recomend it. In my humble opinion, the price is worth it.

 

Hope you will find my opinion useful.

Thank you for such a detailed answer. Before the new year, I looked at the new Tibaldi collection, but overlooked the ebonite feed. This feed looks like a Montegrappa's feed.

      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..
    • A Smug Dill
      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
