Got this to try the non-flex nib on these pens. The line is thicker, and I’m not convinced I like it better than the flex nib, but it certainly works well and for the price you definitely should try it.

Bought it for a Konrad acrylic and it was a tight fit and it hits inside the cap a little leaving ink inside. Gonna reseat and heat set it and see if that will get it a little deeper to correct that issue.
Otherwise it writes smooth.

Smooth, good line width, feed, and consistent wetness. Maybe I got lucky with this one, but it is a solid, very inexpensive steel nib.

This nib has been seriously good for the price paid. I am very new to fountain pens. I was given a Karas Ink V2 by a friend who did not want it and found myself tinkering with it. Upon further inspection and research, I found that the tines of the nib had been bent so I went to figure out where I could get a replacement. I honestly just wanted a working nib so that I could try out a fountain pen, so I bought the cheapest #6 nib I could find. This nib was more than a great replacement to a damaged nib. This nib has also introduced me to a new hobby. I have nothing to compare this nib against, but it seems to be a bit wetter than some others that I have observed online. I experience ink creeping to the top side of the nib, though I am unsure if this is due to the nib or the feed. I do sometimes have a random hard start here and there. I have read that heat setting is helpful for noodlers nibs, and I have not tried that, so maybe that would fix the problem. Overall, a great experience. As for Goulet Pen Co., the customer service is excellent. I loved the detail with which they handled the package. It was clear that a person who cares packed this package.

it writes a wet generous western medium line, but not too much that you can’t write smaller size words. smoothed with micro mesh (personal preference) and it is a blast to use with my Konrad

I am very pleased with these nibs even though only one is being used at this time. I find it consistent with a Fine nib and it lays down a medium wet line that works well with my inks. I ordered a second nib as I want to experiment with shaping the tip into an even finer line/ configuration and at this price it makes it an easy thing to do.

Well, I wanted the neponset and despite the reviews and many complaints about how the music flex nib wrote I bought one. Yeah, I had problems too. But all was not lost! I saw on the youtube channel that a different nib was available to correct this problem. I purchased the nib, put it on, and it worked. It writes very well now. Many Thanks!

wouldn't fit my jinhao 159. tried pressing it, rocking it and nothing. was able to put original nib in without any problem so probably wasn't just user error

very nice quality pen. Good weight, made well, fine nib, writes beautifully and is waterproof:) accidentally fell in sink with dishes, submerged a while, came out with no water absorbed at all and writing perfectly

Nice, putting these is my JH #159's. Work well! Juiced with Noodler's American Eel.

Thank you for the great service and products. Your Q $ A's have been wonderful and I probably spend too much time watching them!I plan to 'turn my hand' at grinding the noodlers non-flex down, very slightly, to a finer line. Thanks again for your great service and interest.

Ya Boi is just getting into fountain pens and purchased this to replace a Jinhao x450 nib. It writes smooth enough for a pimp and flows like a rapper.

The Noodler's #6 is a good quality nib and it fit right into my Konrad with no leaks or other issues. I love my Konrad, but I decided the flex nib just wasn't my style. You should be aware that this is a very wet writing nib. it really throws the ink down on the page. Overall I'm quite happy with the #6 Non-Flex nib. I really wish they made one in fine or extra fine, but this medium nib fits well, writes smooth, and has given me no problems.

Coupled with my Ahab since the flex nibs are a bit too fine for normal writing. This nib provides a wet medium line that is consistent and fun to use. Can't be the price either. I now have three of them.

Smooth writer, a substantial pen that has some flex to the nib. I enjoy writing and sketching with it. I prefer larger pens and this fits the bill. It has a piston type filler which works very well. I am told that it also can be used as an eye dropper filled pen for a larger ink capacity. Very nice looking pen with just the right amount of shinny trim.

Installed it in my Monteverde Regatta which had a B nib. Nice improvement, flows well. A good compromise between fine and medium point nibs...

To my surprise, the inexpensive pen has become my everyday carry favorite pen. Great performance overall: good ink flow, nice nib, no unsightly leaks. What's not to like? Highly recommended. Nice foe inexpensive gifts, too.

I bought this nib to experiment with my I beloved Ahab and to improve a Jinhao. As to the Jinhao the nib is an uncomfortable fit but with a little effort worked. This is a wet nib. I like the slight feedback it provides in use and creates an adequate fine line. The wetness is paper penetrating with some inks but on the whole improved the pen. As to the Ahab I found I preferred the line and feel of the flex nib. I think at last I have mastered my Ahab project with the flex nib and having done so have a friend I cannot bear to leave behind - and sort of like something I tamed and trained. I'll stay with the flex nib on it.

I bought this to see if I can use a flex pen. I do love the color. Writes right out of the gate with no issues yet. Still learning the nuances of the pen.

I couldn't get this one to write. Even heat setting the Ahab feed. Instead, I clipped the end off, sanded it smooth and now it functions fine as a Italic nib.

I've had it for about a week now and it has been a pleasure writing with it, especially with the flex nib, super smooth.

I saw the video to clip and make your own italic nib on the Noodlers site. I bought the nibs and have been slicing and dicing. Pretty cool way to get a real custom pen.

I've several JinHao pens in my collection and I noticed that the more my collection was growing the less I was using them. I decided to give them a new life and, thinking on how to get again engaged with them, I bought some Non-Flex #6 Steel Nibs planning to swap them. Good news is they arrived pretty fast and in a perfect package (the extra-mile lollipop was a true pleasure to find :-) )I did read some users complaining that this swap was not going to work but yes... I'm that kind of guy ... and I'm happy to report that all of my JinHao (X450 and X750) pens are now writing with a great wet flow despite having a finer stroke. Yes there's a little more feedback coming from the paper but I really don't mind. The quantity of tipping material on each of the 9 nibs I bought was not exactly the same, but I do believe that asking more for 2USD is simply crazy.So thanks to Gouletpens for the fast and kind service!

I bought this nib to put in my jinhao x750, as the jinhao uses a #6 nib. As I went to put it in, I discovered that the nib did not have the same contour as the previous one. The part that went inside the pen next to the feed was a little too wide and not curved enough. I fixed this by simply using pliers to bend it into the right shape, with little effort. After this fix, the nib went in flawlessly, and writes well. Overall this was a cheap nib, to go in a cheap pen, and with only a little bit of tinkering, I got it to work.

I purchased this nib for the specific purpose of cutting it down into an italic nib. Being steel, it cuts easy and polishes really well. I made a 1.3 italic nib and after shaping the rough cut and polishing, it writes very nicely.

I got a couple of these since one of my flex nibs was super scratchy and nothing I did would fix it. So on a whim I decided to try couple of these. I put it on 2 of my pens and they work great pretty smooth. For me I wouldn't smooth mine out they provide just enough feedback for me to feel like I am writing. I highly highly(yes I know I did that twice) recommend them. Also one of these days I am gonna get brave and try and make one of them into a small stub just for fun and for 2 dollars cant go wrong.

I got this nib to convert my Noodler's Ahab pen into a non-flexible-nib pen. If you like the Ahab's flex features, then of course you wouldn't want to do what I did. But for the price of this very inexpensive replacement nib, I now have a great pen that writes more easily. This replacement nib is smooth, and puts down a nice line that is between fine and medium. Great replacement option!

While I have seen #6 nibs other places for less money, I can't imagine getting the quick and outstanding service like Goulet offers. As for the nib, I purchased an extra to have with my Noodler's Ahab. After I finished playing with the flex nib, I switched out to the non-flex and clipped off the ends to make a 1.5mm Italic nib. After a few minutes of polish grit sandpaper, and some ink, my new nib is fantastic. The best part is: If I screwed it up, it was only $2. This is a great way to experiment with oblique and italic nibs. I only rated the value 4/5 because I have seen them 10 for $10 elsewhere... but I don't know that I'd buy from anybody else.

I got this nib for experiments. It is nice somebody offers nibs in this price range. If you want to just use a nib, get the $15 Goulet nibs which are ready to use. I thought it was scratchy - but, it is prices accordingly so I would not complain. What do you expect at this price? I rate it execellent in quality because of the low price.
