founding year, the 1911 Series continues a traditional yet elegant Cartridge/Converter System -- Converter included Size: Diameter 1/2", Length Capped 5 1/2", Cap Posted 6 1/8" MSRP: $300.00 The Nibs... "The MUSIC nib is more widely known, having been produced by Platinum, and at times Pilot. The latter brands consist of three tines, or two slits in the nib, to generate the needed ink flow. Sailor has engineered enough ink flow with this particular feed, that the second slit isn't necessary, so it looks like a traditional nib. The Music nib gets its name because it was originally created for writing music notes. The up and down strokes produce thicker lines, while the side strokes are thinner. Music nibs differ slightly from most Italic and Stub nibs because they put out more ink, and usually have slightly smoothed edges for more comfortable script writing. Of course all specialty nibs can vary widely in these aspects, and can be adjusted by professionals. We recommend this nib for everyday writing. It tends to clean up hand-writing. For more professional calligraphy writing, we recommend an Italic, or a true calligraphy nib, which have flatter iridium tips, or no iridium on steel models." .... PenCity Staff. |
