The 14K nib is in a few key ways superior
to the 18K nib. It is generally a stiffer alloy, less
likely to be damaged and it offers the possibility of
greater flexibility. It has been the standard throughout
most of the history of fountain pens.
This pen comes with a solid 14K gold nib and is available
in EF, F, OF, OFR, M, OM, OMR, B, OB,OBR, BB, Stub and
Italic. We can add some flexibility to this already somewhat
soft 14K nib ($65 extra).
