Where is the best place for replacement 14K Pelikan nibs? I need an EF for my Souveran M600 and my M101 Souveran Special Edition. Thank you for any help in this matter.

If you have the nibs, get them ground down to EF by the nibmeister of your choice.

I'm sure you can get a nib for a 600 there to be ground down, if not one at EF.

I have no Idea what size that is....400/600/800. If 400/600 I suggest vintage semi-flex nibs.

 

If you don't have Heavy hands.....used to nails and semi-nails like the 600.

 

For your 600 may I suggest a  '50-65 factory stubbed 400 semi-flex nib. It will give nice line variation with out doing anything extra but writing normal.

Penboard.de might well have that vintage used nib. Penboard is first class, so cost a bit more, if such a grand nib is to be had, they would have it.

 

I go the opposite direction to what you want, but had a '400's stubbed semi-flex B :notworthy1:on my 605 for a long time before I had my semi-nail BB stubbed to B.

In reference to P. T. Barnum; to advise for free is foolish, ........busybodies are ill liked by both factions.

Ransom Bucket cost me many of my pictures taken by a poor camera that was finally tossed. Luckily, the Chicken Scratch pictures also vanished.

Bo Bo’s advice is excellent and I second it.
A nibmeister will grind it to your exact specifications and it is well worth it.

 

I really like the work of Mike Masuyama and fully recommend him.
