Bent Nibs - Are they for you?
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 13 авг 2024
- Bent (Fude) nibs. They are physically bent, not morally corrupt.
Great variation in writing depending on angle. Affordable.
Smooth & wet. Give your Jinhao x450, 159 or 992 a different writing experience. Similar in size to #5 or #6 nibs. Will fit many pens

Get Bent ! My 200th episode.
High Def 1080p. Sound was distorted, sorry.
No. Have a Naginata-Togi nib in a ProGear. That is very wet & wide at a low angle.
I think naginata togi nib is a very versatile nib. I have a soft medium fine on a Progear II, works well for both writing English and Kanji.
I have purchased a number 5 fude nib from PENdihl here in the UK for £4.99 and swapped it into my Jinhao 8802 mother of pearl windows pen and I have been experimenting with this all day and I love it.
Excellent, They are great nibs for those who like a wider wetter line.
I'm really enjoying bent nibs too. The line fluctuation isn't as consistent as say a stub nib, but they're more forgiving. While it takes some practice to get complete control on how to draw your lines, you have a lot more control on the result.
I got a bent nib with the Delike War & Peace that isn't nearly as broad as the ones you have here. It's great for cheaper office paper.
Your depth and breadth of knowledge in fountain pen is unparalleled! I learned a lot from you.
Thanks.
New sub here! Wanted to comment to show your viewers that you are still making an impact years down the road! Man! You're a life saver! I'm brand new to Fountain pens and this classic example will demonstrate just how much! I got a set of Jinhao 450 and went to ink them up. Now one of them didn't perform right off the bat, so I took a closer look to determine the problem -- only to notice the Bent Nib. Being a complete novice I thought, " Out of the five pens at least one has to be defective, right? " So my dumb butt tries actually straighten the flipping nib out! 😂 Ain't that a hoot! No luck! And now I'm mad 😤 and throw the pen into the trash! 😀😀😀 I know you're just dying here with this dog and pony show I'm giving you! But as fate would have it, I stumbled across this video an hour later! OMG! I was so embarrassed! And quickly ran to my office trash can and retrieved the one seemingly defective pen! Thanks for this video and you can stop laughing now!
Great demo! Give me some feeling about the pens' performance. Sidenote: The bent nib is not very common among English writing instruments I think. However, people regularly use them for Chinese and Japanse caligraphy. It gives a wider range of line width when writing thus making characters in Chinese and Japanse more pleasing to look at:)
I've read these nibs were designed to mimic brush pens that are used for calligraphy.
chrisrap52 I am not if they are purposely designed for mimicking bush pen in calligraphy or just for mimicking bush pen, as I do have a friend making all her arts with bent nib pens instead of bush pen:)
Good Morning, Mr. 52,
Late to the party, I know .. but what a coincidence - I think I knew your Aunt, B.
Anyway, I'm Sgt. Friday with the English Police.
Just wanted to say, first, very nice review on these special nib-forms & their many exciting possibilities for your 200th episode. Now, as soon as we learn to spell v-e-r-t-i-c-a-l we can move on to the 300th! ~;》
One further way you didn't show is to use them on-edge (L&R) for thin lines with variant width. Kinda like an Architect on steroids. Fun; give it a try.
Rock on - that lightning's out there somewhere!
Thanks for the feedback.
Not riding on the escalator of life today, lol. Missing that intro tune, also not recognizable without it.
An older video, different intro music.
Ha. "They are physically bent, not morally corrupt." Barely 10s into the video and I'm already amused.
There are also 40 degree Sailor fude nibs. I got a Duke 209 off ebay to experiment with fude nibs for sketching purposes and it's been fun, even though I'm not really any good haha.
Thanks for the video.
Practice, practice, practice...
Try not to get bent...
I think the Sailor comes in 2 different nib variations. If my memory serves me correctly you can buy the bent nibs at 55 and 40-degree angles?
Yes, correct.
The navy blue Sailor Fude de Mannen has a 40 degree bent nib whereas the bamboo green version comes with the 55 degree nib (as indicated on the packaging and in actuality). I like them both.
An excellent technical review, with facts we would-be purchasers need. I bent the nib in a budget-end Waterman school-type pen on a whim, -it wrote surprisingly well. So I went to eBay and got one of these sets of spare nibs for a better-quality Wing Sung I own... such budget pens allow amateur pen folk like me to have fun trying out different nibs and feeds.
Congratulations on the 200th video .... interesting nibs horizontal was good as was vertical
I think the delike bent nib is more of a mild waverly or architect, whereas these are fude nibs.
The sailor fude de mannen is the pen you're talking about, absolutely get the 45 degree, it's so much better than the 55
I find the 450/750/159 to all be super wet but all of them seem to run dry as you write more than a couple sentences
This was extremely helpful, thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you and congratulations, Chris.
Congrats on 200!
I just bought two Delike Alpha pens - I ordered the bent nib. The package arrived and I was deeply disappointed. The bent nibs were extra fine... I wanted something that was smooth and lays down a nice patch of ink. What nib could I buy to replace the ones that came with my pen? Is there a 45 degree nib that would give me a Rolls Royce kind of experience. I am eager to hear your reply

Based on your comment I doubt you received a Dlike bent nib. Check out nibs Bobby has - www.ebay.com/itm/2pc-fountain-pen-Nibs-Medium-and-EF-bent-nib-for-DELIKE-alpha-and-NEW-MOON/232706091870
I've been thinking of whether I should get bent nibs or a set of Zebra G nibs. I'm new to fps and I'd like to customize one of my Jinhaos, make it a pen w a line variation. If ever you see this, what do you think is a better choice? I've got a Jinhao 159 atm and a 992 is still on delivery. Thank you in advance ((:
Oh, and would there be any difference between the two in terms of how writing/drawing would look like? I'm curious, hehe.
I would get bent nibs. My x450 with Zebra nib is not a good writer (video coming). If possible get a variety of bent nibs. Nib sizes different between thee pens, the 159 uses a 6 nib the 992 uses a 5.
Ooh, okay. Thank you for the quick response! I'm looking forward for the video ((:
Hi Chris, this is such a great channel, thanks so much for sharing your wealth of knowledge! I have a TWSBI ECO B that I'm not using, can I swop in one of these fude nibs? Or another kind of fude nib? Thanks!
Thanks. Yes you can! Find a No. 5 Fude nib, pull out TWSBI B & replace with fude. Enjoy.
@@chrisrap52 Jinhoa has both #5 and #6 fude replacement nibs. Do you think their #5 would fit? That would be amazing!
Yes, #5.
It's actually meant to be dedicated to Chinese or Japanese calligraphy sir?
Are you the singer/guitar player at the beginning of the video? Nice voice.
I thought that my pen came broken but I was relieved to find out that it was meant to be bent.
I like your engineering approach and your adventures with nibs.
I watch and learn which is how I work.
I believe it's the natural way to learn.
Most traditional education methods forget this. Sorry about the philosophy.
Back to earth. I want to put a fude nib in a Jinhao 15 . The waistline pen. Would a Jinhao number 5 fude nib work. Or what would you recommend.
They are available on line for £4.99. Which is about $8.
What would you recommend. Congrats on the 200th video.
Keep em comin old boy
Don't have a 15. Looks like a semi-hooded nib. Not sure what nib would work. I just ordered a red 15 for $2.50 USD.
Will a 35 mm nib fit into a no 6 pen like the jinhao? Getting conflicting responses
Most No. 6 nibs are 35 mm in length including Jinhao. No. 6 refers to diameter of feed, 6 mm. Some 6 mm nibs are 32 mm in length, some Wing Sungs.
I am wondering if I can put any of those nibs on my Pilot Metropolitan
I have seen Pilot style bent nibs. Need to look. Some have said a standard No. 5 nib will fit into a Metropolitan.
A friend give me one. It is interesting.
Say no more!
How would one replace a nib on a jinhao 9009 fine point pen?
I do not have a 9009. It appears to have a typical No. 5 Jinhao nib, should pull out.
What's the difference between bent (fude) and italics nib? Are they different in result?
Italic nibs are straight with the tip ground. Bent nibs are bent, tipping not ground.
I did a video on obliques & italics: ruclips.net/video/mc7QnA9fwk0/видео.html
chrisrap52 and the difference in the writings? Are they different in result, or makes same alphabet form?
Each write differently. To get a wide line each requires a different stroke. Bent, change vertices angle. Italic, change horizontal angle.
chrisrap52 I was looking for my first italics. I guess I will purchase the bent nib. Since it produce the same results. I just have to use different writing techniques to achieve the alphabet form.
Verticle?
Bent nibs vary. Not quite vertical.
What nib size is the jinhao x750?
a No.6, 35mm.
@@chrisrap52 i found my jinhao x750 with fude nib so broad to my taste or am i just using it wrong 😆
@@jemini7353 No, you are using it right. This nib is designed to simulate a brush. Try reverse writing, should be a fine line.
u dont know how to spell vertical on the writing sample?
Yes, you are right.
