Slow Down and Enjoy the Write On. Beautiful Pen.

Wonderful, Absolutely everything I wanted. I love using the Magical Forest (Shimmering Fountain Pen Ink with the 1.1 Nib. Lots of comments on the glitter. Also love all four nibs along with the shut off ink flow. Perfect in every way. All of you do an excellent job. Write On

nib was misaligned

The nib was misaligned, and extremely hard to get out of its packaging.

A wet fine nib for a dry, sometimes, 1.1 stub nib.

This replacement fine nib for the TWSBI Vac Mini produces a nice, variable width line on fountain pen paper and well as ordinary paper. The original 1.1 stub writes just fine on ordinary paper but on fountain pen paper leaves a very thin to barely visible line and frequently skips. Strange.

Very smooth but too broad

I bought this in the extra-fine and I have been using it with Noodler's Luxury Blue. I was immediately impressed with how smooth it is for an extra-fine (though, expectedly, it does become a bit scratchy/feedbacky with slight rotation). The downside is that it does not seem to be a true extra-fine as it seems to range from a European medium (e.g. on Rhodia or Tomoe River) to a European broad depending on the paper I'm using.

Excellent Replacement

Purchased this to replace the nib unit that came with my pen. This was an excellent replacement and I have had no issues with it. The nib was smooth and worked with no issues.
