Hey there,

 

Is it possible to restore this nib, or it is gone for good?

 

Its one of those #4 eyedroppers, good flex, long tines.

I do not agree.

There are others.

His work is good.  No denying that....... but his behavior is completely unacceptable.

I hear there is a guy in Spain that retips.....Pablo something....(not picasso; who's not knowing for smoothing his edges)

I'd living in Europe would think there first.

 

I must have a nib that needs re-tipping, in I'd taken a look about him. The price was reasonable...... A semi-flex Kaweco Dia was the pen....that still needs to be re-tipped.

That would be Pablo Carasco(sp?) at FPnibs.  Unfortunately he is not taking any repairs at this time.

Add lightness and simplicate.
