Kaweco Small Steel 060 Semi-flex

It’s hard to want to write with any other nibs now! This nib is smooth and flows well. I immediately bought another with the fine point and love them both. I do wish I had known there would be an additional DHL cost in addition to the shipping cost, as most of the international places I’m shopping mention if those are separate.

I adore these Extra Fine Kaweco Semi-Flex nibs almost as much as the Fine ones. The only reason I gave 1 star less was because with both of the two EF semi-flex nibs with ebonite feeds I bought, is that when I write, the nib keeps creeping forward extending past the feed so that I have to keep pushing it back in. Gently with my finger tips. And I worry the tines might get damaged in the process. And I get a little ink on my fingers every time too. I wish the nib would stay in place because otherwise I absolutely love the flex I get from this nib.

After doubting for a long time, I pulled the trigger on this nib and I am pleasantly surprised. The flex on this nib is awesome and allows for a whole new writing experience. It is not the same as the flex of a vintage gold nib, since this nib feels more 'responsive'. The gold plating stands out compared to the original gold plating, because of the brushed steel texture of the nib. The line width unflexed is the same as the line width of the original nib (Medium in my case). Be sure to select the High or Very High Ink Flow for the Feeder Flow, since the standard feed can't keep up with this nib and will make the nib feel dry. Shipping was fast and neat (received the nib within a week) All in all, highly recommended!
