Hi,
I've searching the forum for this answer to no avail. Did you know searching the word "nib" gets you no results.

I am trying to find options for upgrading the nib on a Jr. Gent II and was wondering what is the favorite right now?

Thanks
Jorge

I like Bock nibs from Classic Nibs and Indy Pen Dance. Ocasionally, I get a call for a broad nib. Since I can't find a supplier for Schmidt or Bock broad nibs, I buy those from Miester Nibs (JoWO nibs). My preference is the Bock, but I don't find the Miester Nibs objectionable.

There are many premium vendors here who sell quality nibs. They will be happy to advise you according to your specific needs. Go to the classified, find the vendors and send them a PM!

most likely that is a function of the forum software - it can't (won't) search for anything with 3 characters or less.

if you search for "nibs" you get results.
 
Thanks for all the help. I have someone that asked if there was a flex nib for the Jr Gent II and since this was also my first fountain I didn't know.
 
Jorge. If they are looking for a flex nib, they are probably looking for either a 14 Kt or 18Kt gold nib.
The gold plated steel nibs will give a little flex, but it takes far more pressure on the nib, normally way more than a fountain pen user would really want, it's also hard on the tines of a steel nib.
In which case check with the forum vendors, like Oklahoman, Exoticblanks, and the Golden Nib (Anthony) and Indy Pen Dance,hopefully some one may have one in 14Kt. at some older prices.
