Not a single option with either an Extra Fine or a 0.6mm Stub nib in sight, though.

I endeavour to be frank and truthful in what I write, show or otherwise present, when I relate my first-hand experiences that are not independently verifiable; and link to third-party content where I can, when I make a claim or refute a statement of fact in a thread. If there is something you can verify for yourself, I entreat you to do so, and judge for yourself what is right, correct, and valid. I may be wrong, and my position or say-so is no more authoritative and carries no more weight than anyone else's here.

You can just buy the nibs separately too. The 0.8 stub and broad are great, great nibs too. Kevin's F nib runs a little on the fine side for western nibs, closer to a sailor FM.

 

I don't know how kevin sells these pens so cheaply with such great quality control. I have 3 singularities, one clear blue, one solid blue, and one in the lovely coral finish.

Not seeing any #6 replacement Extra Fine or Stub nibs being listed either.

*edit* I found them on pen chalet, here. They don't have stubs, but do have the EF.

You're in upside-down world, so I don't know about shipping or other retailers, but you can contact kevin at nemosine directly, the nibs are also available from Goulet (who also has the singularity on heavy discount, though they're out of stock of all the discounted models) and we can find them on Amazon.

Nemosine #5 and #6 nibs are my go-to for every replacement pen that just needs a great writing steel nib. Kevin gives every nib at least a looking over and if necessary a little tweaking before sending out.

OK, I tried placing one item in the cart on the Nemosine site, then went to checkout, just to see how much shipping would be.

 

There is one shipping rate available for 2000, New South Wales, Australia.

• Priority Mail International at $ 46.08

so I don't think I'll be ordering. Now, don't get me wrong, I'm not saying any of the well established retailers are necessarily profiteering from the shipping charges, but at US$46.08 ≈ $64 of my money, I'd prefer to buy two more Moonman M100 on AliExpress... or spend a few dollars more and get a Platinum #3776 Century 'Black in Black' with EF nib from Amazon.co.jp (¥5,699 ≈ US$49.98 at present) and tack that onto my upcoming shipment via a Japanese re-shipper at marginal cost-by-weight.

JetPens sells the Singularity demonstrator pens for $19.95 in all nib sizes, EF through 0.8mm. That's cheaper and more convenient that buying a $9.95 pen and adding a $14.95 nib from somewhere else just to get an EF or stub nib. (This is probably the only time I've ever JetPens come out as the cheapest option.)

 

However, like everywhere else, JetPens is running out of Singularity pens. Is this the end of the affordable Singularity demonstrator pen? I hope not...

      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..

      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
