Many thanks for the description of the differences between the blade types! A thumbs-up for you, sir!!
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you, Doug. Even after attempting to Google the difference between a long blade and a long knife nib, I was befuddled. Your description is crystal clear. 💎
Doug, excellent. I did not know of the blade angle and your simple sketch at the end brings it all home. I bought a Narwhal (sp) stub for my Asvine P20. I'm keen to go the opposite direction and see what an architect or long knife nib looks and feels like in actual use. Great video, thanks.
Thanks for this informative video. The more reasonably priced nib options, the better! They all seem to jazz up your writing.
Short, yes but very interesting. So many choices to experiment with. Thanks Doug. I was at a meeting writing notes with my fountain pen (Benu Peacock Ore inked with Kon Peki) and someone was watching over my shoulder very fascinated. When I turned around he smiled and was very encouraging. I was at a tech conference so even us tech folks appreciate fountain pens and penmanship ( with a flourish)
Hear, Hear!
I learned a lot. Thanks for all your research and effort to make a really informative review.
Really nice. Nice to see a company offering something other than f.m, and b. Thanks for sharing.
Nice guide for buying lemon 😀
Thank you for this. I bought these nibs in all the sizes after watching your vid. I have only tried the blade nib so far but I am really enjoying it!
Glad I could help!
Oh boy, did I need this! And right in the nick of time too! Very good explanation. Thank you Doug 👍👍👍
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks for this video. I was sooo confused with these Nibs. Thanks a LOT !
Glad it was helpful!
🍋 🍋 🍋 Lemon, the Citro(ë)n of fountain pens!
LOL! But not as ugly as a Citoen!
A very useful demonstration. Thank you!
Thanks, Rob!
Thanks Doug, that was helpful!
Great short video. Thank you. 👍🏻☺️
Thank you, Terri!
I have the M blade and it changes with the angle too.
Helpful, thank you!
Thank you for the explanation, some of these names can get confusing
Happy to help!
Excellent! 👍👍
Hm… I’ll have to take another look at those nibs. Thanks for sharing, Doug.
Thanks, Oscar!
Great video sir! 💜🙏🏿
Much appreciated
Doug, hope my question isn't annoying but I love the Kaigalu Long Knives...may we just go with them?
D. You're simply the best at reviews. I taught action at university and have made a living as an actor. I like to think it's your theatre training.
I'm claiming you as a memeber of the same depraved fraternity which is The Theatre -- notice I didn't spell it with a final ''r," ala Française. 😂
I love the Kaigelu long knives. I have several. And yes, theatre training is helpful for many professions! I taught Theatre in university for 35 years.
@@InkquiringMinds yep, you mentioned it! My first job was as a stage carpenter at the Coconut Grove Playhouse, in South Florida. Thence, to NY where I managed to work consistently, thank goodness, but it made a great difference to have learned / worked in technical theatre first.
So the K. Long Knives are an option with the Lemon?
This is an excellent explanation of these nibs. I am guessing a stub nib is the reverse of an architect nib. I like lone variation but has been betwixt and between on which is preferable. Perhaps a comparison of these nibs in the future?
Thanks, Doug.
Yes. A stub is the opposite of an architect.
Great review! For the Tobi style 1.4-2.0 nib. Will the line thickness vary if you press harder or lighter at the same angle? Thanks!
No it won’t. Not flexible.
great video thank you. 🤣 also funny
Glad you enjoyed it
Where does the fude nib figure in this equation? The naginata/long knife seems to function just like a fude
Not really. The fude behaves more like a paint-brush.
Is this your favourite grind?
I like architect grinds the best. The Kaigelu Long Knife is an excellent, inexpensive, architect nib.
@@InkquiringMinds I'll have to try one some point! Maybe I'll flex mod it haha
Doug, just because it quacks like a duck, looks like a duck, swims like a duck well I guess correctly it is duck-like. However sometimes a cigar is just a cigar. Confused yet? I am! I forgot that this really doesn’t have a point, unlike a naga-knotty toga.
I've seen "long knife" a few times recently, on a few listings of Chinese pens. Just as I was hoping can anyone tell us what the heck is that?
Interesting red ink. Not too dark, not too bright. Which one is this?
