Pelikan and Mont Blanc oblique nibs
Has anyone here any experience of both Mont Blanc and Pelikan medium oblique
nibs please? I've just bought a Pelikan M400 with a medium oblique nib and I like it so much I'm thinking of getting the equivalent nib unit for a Mont Blanc Meisterstuck that I don't use a lot. I think I'd use it a lot more if it had the right nib rather than the standard broad one that I had fitted on purchase. (Which I want to keep, though, so it's not just a case of returning the pen for a nib change.) I'd really appreciate a comparison. It's a major performance to get hold of an oblique Mont Blanc nib to try - in the UK, anyway - and I'm not willing to just order one blindly for a small fortune and then find it isn't as wonderful as the Pelikan version. I don't live near a Mont Blanc stockist that carries the full range of nibs, unfortunately, so if I go for one I'll have to order it from their UK headquarters (wherever that might be). There was a time when I thought all oblique nibs were comparable but I have a Parker 95 with an OM nib that's not a lot of fun.
