I have found that the broader the nib, the more visible the imperfections in my handwriting. I have been practicing with my broad nib, and my general handwriting has improved as a result.
I always find your 'nib analysis' videos so very helpful. I used it to choose the sailor nib I got on my sailor sea glass that I bought from Goldspot and am glad I went for the medium!
Great! I'm so glad that it helped you!
Particular thanks for showing me the double broad. Now I want one.
Thank you Tom for all the great videos
This was great, Thanks Tom...I wish Goldspot carried the Guilloche though...Since I wish to order one. I do appreciate this comparison .

@@GoldspotPens Hi there....It is...For some reason it is listed in a broad nib at both $33 and $30.........Vanness has it as well, and their Kaweco ink cartridge prices and free shipping will probably win out ..sadly. The ink cartridges like Summer Purple seem confusing when listed under several different names, Aubergine and Violet, are these the same color?
There's a broad and double-broad. Kaweco recently increased their pricing for the extra fine and broad styles only. We do also have free shipping with $75 or more. Summer Purple is also called French Lavender, but it's the same color.
Very helpfull, thank youu👌👍
Excelente video! Me ha sido de gran ayuda
lovely handwriting!
Was the ink leaking from the blush or was that just showing through?
does the regular Kaweco F nib have any flex to it?
Thank you
What nib would you recommand for students that have to write a lot and often on cheap paper?
I would opt for a fine point because it will provide a thinner line that has a better chance of not feathering or bleeding through paper.
Question can I use a number 6 nib or larger in an of the Kaweco sport pens? Or do they all take number 5 nibs
All the Sport pens use the #5 size nib.
How's the double broad compared to twsbi B?
Hello! What ink was used in this video?
Koweco has had a reputation for a rather inconsistent nib grind. For example, my only Kaweco, the Art Sport, was so scratchy and such a hard starter that I finally made it might first nib-tuning challenge. I could not have ethically sold it to anyone else, and I would not have given it to some one just entering the fountain pen hobby, because I think it would have confirmed the novice user’s worst fears. On the other side, once I tuned it, it is now very wet, but I have never had a burping problem with this pen, even though I eyedropper-fill it. The very small capacity otherwise just about mandates this mode. MY QUESTION: If I extend my range, what is Goldspot’s policy regarding nib and flow? I have never returned a pen, but I hate using rather novice skills on the nib of a fountain pen.
Your response was very reassuring. I will likely add a Kaweco pen through Goldspot. The one I had purchased was significantly higher than the $25 to $45 range; hence, the hard starts and skipping had driven me crazy. Thank you for the switch to Jowo nibs, nibs I generally love. I had not tried to swap a nib, because I was early in my fountain pen usage at the time. I was able to increase the flow and remove the baby bottom.
Very useful. Thank you
Hi, I am new to fountain pen. I like my writing to be thin and small. I have the fine nib of kaweco but I think the writing is a little too bold and cluttered from my liking. Do you think it's worth it to get the EF? I'm a little too conscious about the scratchy feeling
A thinner line usually comes with an increased degree of feedback. If you value line thickness more than the feedback "feel," then go for the EF.
I have the EF and it does not write scratchy for me. I have to remember not to allow it to fall idle for several days and also to keep it clean, though.
I have a Kaweco Sport with a Fine nib that I keep in my pocket for every day pen needs and am often using it on random cheap paper and am thinking of buying an Extra Fine nib for a finer line. It seems like the line width variation between the F and EF is pretty minimal, though. Do you think it's even worth it to get the EF nib?
It is a minimal difference. But, if you're looking for the finest line, the extra-fine will get you there.
I have both. There’s little difference, but there is a difference. I can tell you that the extra fine does not write scratchy. The Kaweco pens hard start for me if I don’t keep them in regular use (that is if I don’t let them fall idle for several days), but that’s true of all the nib sizes and is also true of many different brands of pen.
Thank you. What is the blue ink you used?
