- Platinum has an incredible selection of nibs that are available on their #3776 Century model. I love the selection and in my experience, Platinum nibs are solid and reliable writers. They are firm overall and run on the finer side. Thank you to Platinum Canada for loaning me this outstanding set to share this video with you. Which nib appeals to you?

How can a human being can dislike a video like this is beyond me.
Hah.. probably writes with an old, Bic 'Banana. Remember that pen?
@@MrGchiasson i wanna forget that brand
This was the best overview of the Platinum nib sizes I have ever encountered here on YT. There are some others out there but none of them are this in depth about including the sound of the feedback etc. So a big thank you to you, Azizah!
With kind regards from a (still rather new) fellow pengeek from the Netherlands
Although I came across this a year late, I think it was *very* useful, and now it exists on RUclips for posterity (or, at least, until RUclips goes belly up). I enjoyed the structured way you went through the nibs, and tidbits of advice along the way. This was a great service to all of society. Well, ok, to that part of society that still cares about things like nib performance! 😋
Thanks so much. Extremely interesting, informative! I just purchased a Platinum 3776 Century Shiun yesterday! You have affirmed for me the Medium nib was a good choice for me!!
I thoroughly enjoyed your presentation of the Platinum nibs- very very useful. Its definitely one of my favorite videos on fountain pens I have seen. Your presentation style is also very engaging. I look forward to many hours of going through your back videos.
This was super helpful! I really loved the music nib. It’s not what I thought it would be. Thank you and thank you Michelle!
I love your thoroughness and thoughtful detail for the feel and capacities of each nib. This was very helpful and informative, since I have to buy my platinum pens online without a chance to try them beforehand.
I was searching for something like this a few months ago! Thank you for sharing this with us. I have a broad and I absolutely love it. After watching this you sold me on a coarse. 👍👍👍
Maria Castillo sbre brown has also made such a video
I am “stuck” with two EF Platinum nibs due to waiting until absolutely last minute for two of their limited edition pens. My comfort zone is M JoWo which means B any Japanese nibs. So I am ever so glad to hear your comments on the EF given that you said you prefer them on the B side. Thank you!
One of the best videos I’ve seen on nibs yet. Amazing customer tryout nib setup I haven’t seen before- brilliant. I haven’t seen one yet. I have a 3776 with a Music nib. Thanks for the accurate assessment of the soft fine.
Very nice video, it was interesting to watch it full, even if the two I am trying to decide for are only either the 'UEF' or the 'EF'.
I echo Wanda's take, so brilliant to have the Platinum in-store unit. Also, your handling very informative and enjoyable. Thank you.
incredible review. i literally needed exactly This. Thank you!
Just what I needed to watch. I was struggling over whether to get a medium or a fine nib. Getting a sense of the nib wetness was an extra bonus.
A big thank you.
I have a Platinum SF and it is a great nib. One day I want to add a music nib as Imy sailor music is a hopeless nib. Nice video and it is very helpful to compare all the nibs which is very interesting.
Thanks Azizah or is it Aziza. Excellent demonstration and if one were to
just take reference from the Platinum demonstrator pen stand/rack alone, one
could be misled. By this I mean the writing samples on the rack are Chinese
writing which is completely different to any other language, English included.
So your writing demonstration has certainly provided a good guide for anyone
wanting to buy on-line. Keep your videos coming.
Grazie al tuo video ho potuto scegliere la Platinum 3776 con il pennino che desideravo! UEF! È una stilo bellissima! Grazie! 😘
Very. Nicely presented all the information.
Really really helpful! I was losing sleep over nib choices but after seeing your sample of soft fine I was relieved! Thanks! Keep making more videos!
this was extremely helpful thanks!
That was fund, and very informative. Thanks for doing this❤❤❤👍👍👍
Very useful review..I was looking for the 3776 nib comparison..thank you.
Very useful nib comparison nicely done!
Thank you for doing this. I love love love the Platinum 3776 Century. It is my favorite pen of all of the pens in my collection. My 3776 has an Extra Fine nib and I love it because my handwriting is small and for journaling...... which I do extensively.... the EF nib is perfect. I am also considering getting a second 3776 and am debating between the Fine nib and the Soft Fine nib. Since I would be buying online and can't try the nibs out in person, this video was very helpful.
So did you get a second 3776? If so, how do you like it? :)
Great video
So glad you liked it :)
that hard start is not a problem at all. Really one the great pens I have.
Great video! Thank you. I think you may have sold me on a Platinum broad nib.
Thank you. Very very helpful in the world of internet guess work.
I love this and needed this but I still need to get hands on with these to know what is best for me. I think I have a heavy hand sadly when I write. I try to back off but put a lot of pressure down on the page so my nibs go up a size. I want to try the UEF and the fine as well as the soft fine to figure out what I like or dont about these nibs with my hand pressure. Ill have to wait for a local pen show or something I guess. But this still gave me a ton of good info to work with.
Thank you, that was very informative.
That was amazing!! Thank you!! :D
Great comparison!
Excellent comparison!
Excellent review, job well gone! 👍👍👍
Thank you. I have a 3776 with a music nib that nibgrinder.com Mark Bacas has made a bit more "crisp" and with J Herbin Emerald of Chivor ink, it's WET. And it's my favorite. Most of my pens are Vanishing Points. I've seen you work with Stephen Brown and appreciate your videos.
Thank you!
This is exactly what I am looking for! I just bought my first 3776 but only the EF was available in the limited edition and I really was after the SM. So a bit nervous about an EF... Thank you so much this is GREAT!
How did the EF turn out? I’m really interested in this pen but I don’t know if I should get a F, EF or UEF. I’m lefthanded and would like a really fine line, but not to the point it’s dry and skipping.
My EF lamy Al Star still has a wider line than I would like, I want this platinum 3776 to be perfect...
Mr. Swooprah Japanese nibs tend to be finer that European ones. I was told Japanese F is the equivalent of Euro EF
Nobody Here Thanks for the super fast reply!
I know japanese nibs are finer than european nibs, but I feel like my EF lamy just isn’t fine enough, I have switched between an F an EF in my lamy and there’s no difference in line width. The F is smoother but the EF has more shading.
I not sure if I should get the platinum in F or EF
Mr. Swooprah If you find EF on Lamy isn’t fine enough and there is not much of a difference between their F and EF, then EF in platinum should be a good place to start trying. Since there are many factors in finding the right one including the kind of ink we use from the brand to the colours and also what paper we are writing on, I found that the only way to find the right one, is by actually trying them. Trial and error can be expensive but I found it is the only way to go. With known brands like Platinum you can always resell anyway. Good luck!
Extremely helpful and a pleasant presentation. Off I go for a music nib! Thanks
The best comparison video of Platinum nibs yet! Thank you. What would you recommend when it comes to using copier paper at work or making study notes? The fine seems appropriate. My medium Vanishing Point is too thick for work paper.
Fine would be super nice. Try one in store if you can!
Platinum nibs are a tad finer than the pilot nibs. Can you test one at store
So jealous you get to try all these! But where was my favourite (so far) the SM??
Not part of the tester set!! Weird right?
Great video, Azizah! Thanks! How would you compare the Platinum 3776 UEF and EF to the Pilot PO(Posting) nib that you have tried before?
I own the 3776...very nice pen.feels good in the hand..smooth writing...just right.
What is the nib size
@@san2881 medium
@@MrGchiasson first of thank you so much for the reply, I never thought I would get a reply since the post is 2 years old. I was very confused between F and medium. I want a fine line but one that stops short of scratching and hard starting. Since there's no way here to test the in store I entirely depend on yt videos. I had a 6th sense that medium is the apt one. Since I intend to use it for signature I don't want any skipping either. Your post has corroborated my decision. Once again
@@san2881 I might get the fine nib
( hint to my daughters for my birthday.)
@@MrGchiasson yeah fine is good for students to improve their handwriting, by the way convey my regards to her. My birthday wishes🎂
Really useful comparison. Thank you. :) I'm looking at getting my first Platinum 3776 soon (ish) and have been wondering what nib to choose. My current two "best pens" are an Italix Parson's Essential Medium, and a Parker Sonnet 18k medium nib. I am a little scared of "broad" nibs, because I'm looking for something a little more refined (that's the wrong word, but I don't know how to express it) I don't have the biggest handwriting so want my letters to be distinct. Do you think the Platinum Medium would be ok? Maybe a little finer than a Parker Medium, but not super fine? Any advice would be very welcome.
A Platinum M should land you around if not a tiny bit finer than your current mediums
Same taste here, so did u get a Medium or a Broad of 3776? was it according to ur requirement of parker sonnet type medium nib?
But let's be honest, if when writing with the UEF nib - the height of the letters is about 3mm, then when writing with the B nib - it is already 5mm.
Platinum 3776C resharpen the size M into F/EF - simply removing the side chamfers from the ball (because of this, there are problems when writing). And in general, the 3776C iridium ball wears out rather quickly, unlike the Pilot or Sailor nibs, not to mention the comparison with the Bock nibs (these are the very long-livers).
Best and highly informative vid on all the various size nibs available out there...
My question is are these nibs interchangeable on Platinum pens ?
If so...that would be terrific !
Thank you 🙏🏼
Would you recommend the Fine or Soft Fine for everyday writing as a lefty (e.g quick writing in journal notes)? Thanks
I would lean towards the fine, unless you don't like really firm nibs, in which case the SF would be nice too but for fast jotting, I think the fine is better!
How does the UEF compare to a Pilot PO nib? I’ve wanted a 3776 for sometime but unsure which nib to go with. Great review.
The PO is smoother and easier to use
I’m really interested in this pen but I don’t know if I should get a F, EF or UEF. I’m lefthanded and would like a really fine line, but not to the point it’s dry and skipping.
My EF lamy Al Star still has a wider line than I would like, I want this platinum 3776 to be perfect...
I just purchased the Platinum 3776 Nice Lavende in broad and I hope it’s not too broad? I heard someone say it’s more like a medium.
Yes, more like a medium.
Is the coarse supposed to be essentially a double broad (triple?) or is it supposed to have some additional qualities other then being broader than broad? The name is throwing me off. Unless the coarse is not indicative of texture but implies some thing raw and rough to be polished, like rough diamonds, since you mentioned these nibs are a good starting point for custom work?
Thank you wish I had seen this before buying mine. Seems soft fine writes a little wetter and bigger than fine. I should have got the medium, unfortunately don’t have brick in mortar where I live any ideas where I can buy nibs online
Platinum does not sell their nibs individually, unfortunately. Lots of places to buy the pen online, though! Give it a quick google to find one you prefer :)
So ... do these nibs fit other pens, and are they sold separately or just with the expensive pen?
If they fit a standard N°5 or N°6 nib pen, great! I might be interested. However, if they are only available in a pen that costs even 20% of my monthly rent ... forget it. I need a lot of things a bunch more than an expensive pen. If I ever NEED a gold nib, I know I can get a new N°5 or N°6 nib (depending on which pen I "need" it for) for between $120 ~ $130. To me, that is a better option than spending $600 plus for a pen that comes with a gold nib and a "high end" name.
What are you even talking about? The 3776 is one of the most affordable gold nibbed pens. They can go for as low as 100€.
what is closest to a Pelikan M800 broad --the platinum broad or coarse. Would love to know??
Que locura ese "mostrario" de Platinum..provoca tener uno....te imaginas.... que maravilla.
Creo que es la primera vez que un experto puede sentarse y mostrar TODA la variedad de grosores de plumas que ofrece un buen estilografo. Hay otros que muestran "como queda" la escritura de las distintas opciones, pero no que muestren en realidad como se comporta cada uno. MUY buen video.
cordial saludo
This was incredibly helpful! Only problem is, now I want 3 of them 😅
Fun 💗🖤💗
Thanks so much for the nib comparison! Would you have any idea on how the coarse nib of platinum compares with that of pilot?
No idea sadly. Haven’t tried the Pilot C
I want to get my First Fountain Pen but I don't want to spend too much money. I'll allow myself to spend $5-$20 witch ones do u think would be good?
I have a few in my eBay wish list like the Wing Sung 698 I want a piston pen too!
One of my favorites is the Lamy Safari! TWSBI Eco is a good option as well.
Thanks a bunch , happy holidays ⛄️🎄❄️🎅🏻
What ink are in these?
Platinum Black
New friend here. ❤
Medium it is
good to know that im not the only fountainpen geek around! lol
Can we buy that set from somewhere?
I don't think so :( I tried haha
Are the nibs Available by themself?
Sadly they are not
I’m pretty disappointed with the music nib. I was expecting a lot more line variation on the down strokes with pressure.
This video is fucking dope!!!
we in the bathroom here? :P
The voice is at its best while singing in the shower, not so much for giving a nib review. Nonetheless thank you for your comments.
Holy cow! The 3776 is available on amazon.ca for half the price of the all usual suspects. Could these be fakes?
They're probably Japanese import so be careful as they will not have warranty support outside of Japan.
