Does anyone know what type of nib this is? I saw it on pentrace a month ago. I tried looking around in books and websites. I figured if anyone would know fpboard would. I think the pentrace user described it as "fish tail"

Neat nib!
 

John Mottishaw made a few of these, and I know how to as well. Catfish nib!

Greg,

What sort of line does it lay down? Super wide italic?

Are you sure it's not a "whopper"? Or, at least a hammer head?

 

(I was goping to put a smiley at the end, but, for somereason, I can't turn that on. Does that meant that nothing is funny any more??

 

:-)))

I vote for the hammer head.... what do you do with it?  Draw fat lines?

You could do lovely poster lettering with that.

I wonder how long the ink supply lasts!

Overbury just calls it a "one of a kind" nib. The pen is item #9.
