Handwriting Samples

I have written some sample text using all the different nib width’s that Pelikan produce. Depending on how you hold your pen will make a difference to the thick/thin line variation you will get, but hopefully the sample text will give you some idea of the thickness of the nibs.

It is important to remember that all of Pelikan's nibs are hand finished and therefore there may be a degree of variation in nib widths.

Everybody has different hand writing preferences. Therefore, whilst we try our hardest to provide you with exactly what you require, it can sometimes take a few attempts as only you know what you are really after

Oblique Nibs

Pelikan's oblique nibs are primarily designed for left handed writers. The nib is cut away at a 15 degree angle with the aim of allowing a level and flowing writing motion.
