Left Hand Osmiroid Nibs, Fit Esterbrook


Alohamora

Recommended Posts

Hello,

 

I have some Osmiroid nibs for sale. These are unused old stock nibs. They fit Osmiroid 65 pens as well as Esterbrook J series pens -- any pen that takes the Esterbrook renew-point screw-in nib. "Rola" means it's a rolled metal tip.

 

$6 each and $2.50 (USA) shipping per order. I prefer PMs through FPN, but you can also try emailing through my profile page.

 

Specify --

Left hand regular Rola fine

Left hand regular Rola medium

Left hand italic fine

Left hand italic medium

 

I have multiples of each size

What does it look like when right handed writers use these nibs?

I was unable to get the italic nib to write without skipping as a right-hander. Holding it in my left hand ink flows smoothly, it seems like it works both overhand and underhand. I won't show you that one because my left-handed script looks like a four-year's writing. :embarrassed_smile:

 

Below is the LH medium Rola tip nib held right-handed. I had to hold it at an odd angle to get it to write, but once I found the needed angle it wrote smoothly.

      Oh to have that translucent pink Prera! @migo984 has the Oeste series named after birds. There is a pink one, so I’m assuming Este is the same pen as Oeste.    Excellent haul. I have some Uniball One P pens. Do you like to use them? I like them enough, but don’t use them too much yet.    Do you or your wife use Travelers Notebooks? Seeing you were at Kyoto, I thought of them as there is a store there.

      It's not nearly so thick that I feel it comprises my fine-grained control, the way I feel about the Cross Peerless 125 or some of the high-end TACCIA Urushi pens with cigar-shaped bodies and 18K gold nibs. Why would you expect me or anyone else to make explicit mention of it, if it isn't a travesty or such a disappointment that an owner of the pen would want to bring it to the attention of his/her peers so that they could “learn from his/her mistake” without paying the price?

      Why nobody says that the section of Tuzu besides triangular shape is quite thick. Honestly it’s the thickest one among my many pens, other thick I own is Noodler’s Ahab. Because of that fat section I feel more control and my handwriting has improved. I can’t say it’s comfortable or uncomfortable, but needs a moment to accommodate. It’s funny because my school years are long over. Besides this pen had horrible F nib. Tines were perfectly aligned but it was so scratchy on left stroke that collecte

      Awesome! I'm in the process of preparing my bag for our pen meet this weekend and I literally have none of the items you mention!! I'll see if I can find one or two!

      @asota -- Yeah, I think I have a few rolls in my fridge that are probably 20-30 years old at this point (don't remember now if they are B&W or color film) and don't even really know where to get the film processed, once the drive through kiosks went away....  I just did a quick Google search and (in theory) there was a place the next town over from me -- but got a 404 error message when I tried to click on the link....  Ruth Morrisson aka inkstainedruth
