Kanwrite Nibs

[Cyclohexene]

Just email them at kanpurwriters@gmail.com and ask about a price list. They do PayPal and can send you a price list with all their products on it. I recently bought three no 35 BB nibs in Jowo #6 threaded housing and it was a simple and painless process.

Cool, thanks for the link!

Recently, I purchased a Kanwrite Medium flex, and boy what a delight it has been. I especially love its long steely nibs that 'splits' as you write.

Attached a sample.

 

 

Thanks for your writing sample. Looks like a great pen/nib to write with. I am considering this pen/nib...now positioned as full flex with the cut-out slits. Ryan

Ask for the ultraflex nib with an ebonite feed. The other available flex nibs are too stiff.

Hmm I kinda agree and not agree at same time. The normal flex nib in no 6 nib unit is just fine and offers line variation from Fine to Broad easily and is very easy to use daily to get better results, although I too felt it was stiff at start, it has mellowed nicely and is very nice to play with and write with in daily writing without taking the professional feel of writing away, Ebonite feed, completely agreed with you here. Though I suspect this kind of flex would not be possible for any smaller nibs with flex mod. Though for further variation as pointed out ultraflex are better but normal flex is not too stiff either.

 

A small image to show line variation, was taken when I was discussing with a friend on flex nibs 5 or 6 months back, was fun and fruitful discussion, I kept the image for future reference as its easy to show the variation, just ignore the context of it😅

all done with Kanwrite flex fine with waterman serenity blue (darkened ink).

I agree that there is a little flex while writing normally, but pushing just ruins my calligraphy. I am used to writing with dip pens which are a lot more "flexy".

 

The ultraflex initially did not work because it came with a plastic feed.
