We've had a long running relationship with Mr. Yukio Nagahara, one of the world's preeminent nib specialists. As the demand has outstripped the supply we receive, we have moved them from the pen drop down choice to this page, where they will be listed any time stock is received. If something is currently out of stock, you can sign up here for notification.
Note that if you order a pen and just this nib (or instruct us otherwise) we will outfit the pen with this nib.
Featured here are the more rare JoWo #5 nibs that fit the smaller of our pen models. (Primarily the 25, 45, and 55). Mr. Nagahara grinds to Needlepoint, Fine C. Italic, Medium C. Italic, Broad C. Italic, Medium Stub, and Broad Stub. Each nib comes with a special Nagahara card with tip info and his chop for authentication.
