So, I just got a TWSBI stub and I am in LOVE... I am surprised you didn't like yours. I'm loving mine and plan to get more when TWSBI makes colors that I love.. not sure I am going to get the new HEAT version because I like the Saffron better
Yes, the Heat is very orange, which is just what I was wanting. The Saffron is nice, as well. I think my technique with stub nibs is poor, so I need stub nibs that are more forgiving. I’m glad you love yours!
Yes, the jade! Gorgeous. The stub is the one TWSBI nib that I sometimes have issues with. I love the Monteverde stubs, and recently discovered Kaweco has some excellent stubs, too. Thanks for watching!
Wow--that Jade broad with Kyoto TAG 03 is fantastic! I'm a fan of all the TWSBI nib sizes, but I'm lately developing a soft spot for their broad nibs, which are so complimentary to any ink feature I'm exploring.
Hey! Thanks for stopping over. Yeah, that ink LOVES that pen. Such a delight to actually see the ink flow onto the page, yet so well-behaved. Thank you for watching!
Thanks for the question! My favorite is definitely the broad. I’ve tried them all, and the extra fine and stub are my least favorites. The stub isn’t as forgiving as a Kaweco stub, and extra fine is just too fine to enjoy the ink. Not to mention, an Eco with extra fine nib would last a long, long time on a single fill.
I totally agree with the selection. Broad nibs for the win! 🖊
The medium nibs are good, but the broad are amazing! Thanks for watching.

TWSBI with a 1.1 stub is definitely on my wish list.
The jade is so beautiful!

Thanks for the shoutout of FPC! And it is indeed free, but I would of course appreciate donations. :) 💚
Yes, I highly recommend people support the site on Patreon! I do.
If you love that green ink, I recommend Colorverse Brane. It’s got some shimmer and sheen. I think you would live it!
Oh! I like the looks of it, so I just ordered a bottle. It will be my first Colorverse ink. Thanks for the recommendation!
What is your favorite nib size in the TWSBI ?

Which of them are China made?
Well, they’re actually made in Taiwan. Thank you for watching!
