Thanks for going into more detail than just saying that they are your favorites.

This was the most thorough review I have seen for pen nibs so far. The demonstration was immensely helpful.

As much as I enjoy seeing beautiful writing and the techniques used to achieve them, I also greatly appreciate these technical aspects that help us choose the right tools and learn from your experience. Thanks, Shinah!

I really like the Brause Steno Nib. Beautiful lines and bold lettering. Gorgeous.

This is a fantastic Video. Comparing Nibs relative to surface/paper is really critical and usually what most Video's overlook and never mention. SO helpful to consider and understand. Thank you!

Thank you so much for your thorough explanation with using each nib!!! So very helpful!

So very, very helpful, thank you for also giving examples of which nib writes best on which surfaces!

Brilliant, thank you very much. As a new starter it’s just what I needed. Your making the effort to put the names of the nibs against the sample text was perfect for screenshots for future reference. Greetings from 🇬🇧.

Thank you! This is an awesome explanation and demonstration of each nib. ❤

I just received a calligraphy set with Dip Pen Set, oblique pen holder and a number of nibs. My writing looks terrible but I hope it improves with practice.

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR VIDEO AND THE DEMOSTRATION ON THE NIBS, PAPER AND INKS.

So glad you posted this!

Finding the right Nib for oneself seems almost a sacred journey or pursuit! I think I've tried everyone's "favorite" but have yet to find mine! But I'm totally DETERMINED!!

Learned alot. First timer, getting ready to buy my first set. Liked and subscribed.

I LOVE those g type. And the blue pumpkin steno too- I have all of these 😂.

Thanks for the comparisons! I’ve got to say, I’d love to see this exact video with some iron gall or another calligraphy ink. I don’t use sumi often due to it not having great hairlines. My go to pre- made inks lately have been the Scribal Workshop iron gall and J. Herbin’s Encre Authentique. They’re both great, both iron gall. Downside of the JH is that it’s very much grey when it dries, and the downside to the Scribal ink is it smells like Worcestershire sauce… o_O

A wonderful introduction to calligraphy nibs. Excellently demonstrated. I learnt a lot from you. Thank you.

Thanks! Very helpful. I use the Hunt Imperial 101, but sometimes wondered if there would be another nib that has the same width variation (emphasis on ultra thin lines) but catches the paper less...

It does actually limit the kind of fonts you’ll use, some allowed more variety. Thank for your video .

Oooohhh love the metallic ink!!!!

Remarkably intelligent presentation on the topic!

I got a bunch of nibs in a beginner pack and this was really useful. Thank you very much 😊

Just getting started.Thank you very much.I know where to go and what to use

Thank you so much for this video, I always hear about nib this or that but for us beginners it doesn’t make a lot of sense. Thanks for the demonstration before your video I had just put in an order but I think I ordered the wrong nib, I ordered a Zebra G nib instead of a Nikko G nib!

Useful informations and beautiful calligraphy!

Thanks for this video, VERY helpful!

You r a wonderful teacher

Good video i am trying to teach myself how to write like that i think i have it but need the right pen and nib to try my skills i have been doing it with a brush pen

Thank you! This was very helpful!

Thank you for this useful clip.

Beautiful. I love seeing you write cursive with calligraphy pens . I did notice when you wrote you speeded up the video, but could I write quickly with these pens? I write fast .

Moon palace is my fave ink.

Hi, thanks for this tutorial, I wish to write on leather surfaces, as it is textured, I find it very hard to write with Nikko G, what nib do you suggest? :)

Very good video and beautiful writing

Found you. I'm just starting up caligraphy again after living life! So excited to learn about what is out there! Love lettering... Fancy, smanchy, lettering! Thanks for sharing your nib tips. I had no idea there was an offset pen itself.. Do you have a book?

I am pretty new to modern calligraphy and nibs and this was suuupper helpful, thank you ☺️

Ty I just recently started beginning using calligraphy pens and was having a lot of issues knowing which nib and how to use them or how to work them

This is excellent. What nibs would you use for fractur and/or old English?

thanks. great video. great calligraphy.

what nib will you recommend for making letter about 1/2 inch in total height.

Today was day 1 with a fountain pen....all I can say, is I'm glad there's plenty of practice time! Thanks for this!

So helpful.

I hear dip and ink contained in the barrel fountain pens both being called calligraphy pens, and some say just the dip pens--what's your take?

What nib do you suggest that is closest to a regular fountain pen nib? Are there any holders that would just take a #6 fountain pen nib? Wanted to use a nib and holder to test/record all my inks

What paper are you using?

Can u use an ink cage w steno???

Where can place order for these calligraphy pen

This is a very helpful video. Thank you

Nice review.. thx

Excellent love! Which gold metallic ink were you using? Thanks, 💕💕💛💛💗

An excellent and very valuable presentation..

My fave is tachikawaG. 66_EF is fussy. No brause rose nib?

Hello, ur videos are nice but I wanted to ask one question. Which of these nibs will support the Jinhao X450? If any of them does, pls provide the amazon link to a single or triple piece of nib as I don't need 10 nibs lol

How about the smaller Hunt? And crowquill? I've never done modern calligraphy.

I love your eyes

What about the Brause Rose nib? Do you have one?

where can you purchase the nikko g nib? i see it on amazon advertised as a manga pen, but i’m not sure if that’s the same thing. thank you for all your insight! very helpful. 🖤

Some say that Brause Steno runs out of ink fairly quickly. Is it so ?

Is the Nikko G also called the Nikko Manga Pen Nib G-Pen?

So your raise steno is your off road nib?

You can write on agate polished stone????!!!

Where are available these nibs and hown can we purchase and will what price including home delivery in Pakistan.

That steno is so heavy!!!!

I'm in dilemma😂 Which one is averagely good at many things? I don't wanna buy many nibs, instead just use the one so...

⚾️ very interesting

i have leonardt principle just an exact replica of hunt imperial....................

Your thumbnail says Browse instead of Brause. Maybe you could fix it?

Someone just gave me a case of antique caligraphy supplies. I am just trying to sort it all and figure out how to use it all. How can I tell if a nib is still good for use?

Ok, know nothing about this art but what is the pen holder angle thing all about? Is this a standard tool? Why is it angled like this?

Ohh. I have the Nikko G and a Zebra G.

Alot of calligraphy suppliers? like 2: John Neal in Greensboro NC, or Paper and ink., in Nashville TN. How bout video on your sources/ suppliers?

good

Those thick heavy lines drain the nib too quickly.

Don't catch on your upstroke!! I found zebras were sharp and caught on upstroke.

Tachy G is better n zebra or Nikko.

👌👌👌😍🌈

ou don't need an oblique nib holder, and you don't need a dip pen, to learn or write excellent calligraphy. This can be done just as well with a fountain pen and a flex nib. It's usually easier, in fact, and a lot more pleasant because you'll almost certainly get a better nib.

Thank you so much
