Jinhao #8 nib in a Bock/Jowo housing?

[mke]

I wonder if a Jinhao #8 nib would fit into a Bock 380 or Jowo #8 housing?

 

Reason behind that question is the price of gold nibs. I bought three Bock 380 EF in 2023 for 226 Euro each. Just checked today's price: 375 Euro.

 

Thinking about getting pens for larger nibs where the section has already been threaded for Bock 380.

As the Jinhao #8 nibs (for the 9019 and the X159) are writing nicely, that would be a cheap but acceptable choice.

 

Has anybody tested that already? Thank you.

Sorry.  Don't have the answer.  I know Jowo nibs don't fit Bock housings, but the other way around works.  You could, of course,  go all out and purchase steel Bock 380s.

I didn't realize that they have steel nibs. Thank you.

Someone told me offline that a Jinhao #8 fits into Bock/Jowo housings but often need the Jinhao feed.
