kmlstmoorthi Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 Sailor King Eagle nib http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a3/kmlstmoorthi/Nibs/KingEagleFrontal.jpg This nib writes is like a reverse stub - a realy wide horizontal stroke, and a relatively thinner vertical stroke. A really nice signature nib!

Easily BBBBBB! Enjoy Regards Moorthi Link to post Share on other sites

kushbaby Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 Do you find that the King Eagle nib is usable for writing besides signatures? I want to put one on my wish list, but would hate to get such a nice pen (KOP) with limitations on what I could use it for... As for the King Cobra... :puddle: __________________Kushbaby I like eating peanuts with chopsticks... Link to post Share on other sites

AltecGreen Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 Does anyone know which pens are available with the King Cobra nib? The only pen I know that came with the King Cobra nib was the LE Cobra pen. 2020 San Francisco Pen Show August 28-30th, 2020Pullman Hotel San Francisco Bay223 Twin Dolphin DriveRedwood City Ca, 94065 Link to post Share on other sites
Nikhil Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 Someone notify GP write now. BBBBBB and he's not kidding! FPH has the nib size listed as that! To the OP, I have heard that this pen has been recalled because of an instantly amazing experience that comes with writing with it. Ship it to me and I will save you from all harm! :ltcapd: :roflmho: :roflmho: :roflmho: A Proud 14 Year Old Fountain Pen User!What I want:[/color]Aurora TalentumPilot Custom 823 Amber Bought on 4.1.10Lamy 2000Omas ParagonSailor Realo Link to post Share on other sites

kmlstmoorthi Posted February 3, 2010 Author Share Posted February 3, 2010 Sorry about the delay in responding. This is pretty much a signature nib, unless one writes really, really large. Hope this helps. Regards Moorthi Link to post Share on other sites

AltecGreen Posted February 4, 2010 Share Posted February 4, 2010 I just remembered. The King Cobra nib is also available in the special Sailor nib collection set. This is a set with a special ribbed 1911, a bottle of ink, and the full Sailor nib selection (21 nibs). Each nib is mounted on it's own section and the whole package comes in a cool wooden box. 2020 San Francisco Pen Show August 28-30th, 2020Pullman Hotel San Francisco Bay223 Twin Dolphin DriveRedwood City Ca, 94065 Link to post Share on other sites
