Which Brands Still Make Their Own Nibs?

I don't make my own coke, 'cause Coca Cola do it better. Thanks

Just recently I found out that Pelikan nibs are made in-house again except for the M1000.

I had an M605 before and the nibs is nice and reliable. Right now I am interested in the M1000 because Pelikan lovers said it has some springiness in it.

Can't wait until I get one.

I recently bought a Pelikan 1000 with an OB nib. I was pleasantly surprised at the springiness. Much different than my other Pelikans. It is now one of my favourite writers.

That is nice to hear. Right now I am looking forward for the M1005 to come out. I have been looking for a large demo for some time now. I almost got an AS demo but just cannot find one that I can afford.

But you might find it dissapointing if Coke started selling re-branded Pepsi.

Wasn't that called "New Coke"?

Pelikan M1000 is one the best nibs I've have used. I have one M, 2B and 3B. They're all almost semi-flex. M1000 2B is more rounded nib, but 3B is an awesome stubbish nib!! M1000 3B is amazing. Recently, I purchased a Visconti HS 1.3 stub and its nib is quite harder than a M1000, however HS 1.3 nib is juicy and buttery smooth.
