Brause Steno Pen Nib 3/box

If you’re new to calligraphy everyone says start with the Nikko G nib. I disagree. I believe you should start with these, Brause Steno 361. The ink flow is superb, they’re much easier to get used to applying variable pressure, and they don’t catch on paper with upstrokes like the Nikko G does. It’s by far my favorite nib. If you’re just getting started, do yourself a favor and buy these along with the Nikko G.

As an avid writer and writer using a nib, these are the very best I've used. I have bought different brands but these have surpassed all the others. They hold in to the ink and are not scratchy. The only nibs I'll use.

Great nibs for dip pen writing

Bought these nibs to try out. They are okay, but not my favorite nib.

These work great for creating "sparkles" as recommended by Martin Lachmair and shown in his art.

Work great for my art projects I do. Good value for the money also.

It was like night vs. day after I soaked them in acetone. I tried soaking in alcohol and it did nothing. Washing with soap amd water did nothing. I thought about trying to return them! However, after I soaked the nibs in acetone they wrote how I was hoping they would. They are fairly smooth for a nib that doesn’t have a rounded ball at the tip. They definitely give your writing a special look to it. This could easily become the nib that I try to write with if I send handwritten correspondence so that my writing has some recognizable flair to it. It was the only nib I bought recently that created any line variation by applying more or less pressure. All my other bits seem to make a consistent line no matter what I do which is great for expected consistency but kind of boring. These “blue pumpkin” nibs I guess they call them are anything but boring. They make each and every line made on a paper look a little more eccentric than any other nib. This is a scribes nib. This is the kind of nib you make a choice about using because the way you write will say something about who you are. This nib may just get your writing noticed or blessed with compliments for your exquisite penmanship. (I won’t tell that it’s not you it’s the magic of the blue pumpkin!)

They fit tightly into the holder. Work well.

False Advertising .provided only one nib .

MUITO BOM.

Good quality! Highly recommended!

Me gustaron, las estoy usando para aprender caligrafía. No tengo punto de comparación con otras plumilla, pero son flexibles, fácil de usar y no ocupan mucha presión. Ajustan bien en el mango de Alt. Las he usado con las acuarelas líquidas de Indart, tinta para pluma fuente de Waterman y la tinta dorada de Winsor and Newton. El papel de la foto es de la libreta Celestial Dot Matrix, les recomiendo invertir en un buen papel.

The blue pumpkins are my go to nib for most of my uses.
