This is a very nice, flexible nib with large line variation. I love it!

I enjoyed my Charlie pen, as it was a good pen on which to tinker. I ordered a Creeper Flex nib and tried to heat set the nib. Unfortunately, the body of the Charlie warped in the hot water (or maybe it was the microwave that bent it). So, I will look forward to ordering a new Noodler's pen on which to work the new nib. Keep up the good work Goulet Pen Team!

I enjoy goulet pens speedy service and care of packaging. The nib creeper is wetter than I expected, I'll have to get more resistant paper. I love the colors of the inks I ordered and will be excited to use them soon

The Noodlers #2 flexy nib is much easier to use in flex mode & with greater line variation possible that the larger #6 nibs used in the Ahab and the Konrad. It not only works well with the Nib-creaper and Charlie pens, it kicks mortal but in the smaller Sheaffers Balance pens and the Sheaffers Touchdown Craftsman pens (my favorite Frankenstein match-up is my '69 Sheaffers Craftsman Touchdown with a '37 balance feed and a slightly modified Noodlers #2 nib). It is not terribly difficult to tune these nibs if you think about what you are doing and they can be a real blast to use. Get crazy and write with it like you stole it, that is what it is made for!

I recently purchased a Creaper #2 nib as a replacement for my Charlie pen. The new nib fits and works perfectly. In addition, many thanks to the Goulet staff for great customer care. I recently received a bottle of HOD that leaked badly during shipping. Goulet replaced the ink quickly and cheerfully and even included another free Charlie!

Excellent nib for everyday writing as much as for calligraphy. I like it very much.

I installed this nib in a Noodler's Charlie pen, and while it offered a lot of line variation, it put down a very thick and inconsistent line with normal writing. Examining the nib, the spacing at the tip was too wide, and the long slit made adjusting this difficult.

I don't have a nib creaper, but I do have 2 Charlies. I decided to get the flex nib to put in the Charlie. After deepening the main feed channel quite a bit, and heat setting the nib, i was impressed with not only the amount of flex you can get (I was able to get a 3.5mm line straight down a page of Rhodia with zero railroading). Do keep in mind that the flow gets quicker the lower the ink is because of heat from your hand and air pressure inside the barrel. I haven't had any problems with burping, but it is EXTREMELY important that the nib be perfectly heat set when you do this or it could burp/drool. If you find that you're having problems with flow and don't want to deepen the channel, don't fill it any more than about 1/3 of the way. I can't recommend this nib enough considering the ridiculous flex and utility that is offered from this nib being tipped which means you're not digging into the paper on the upstrokes. This is a nib you can have fun with *and* use for daily writing!

Very positive experience I have Nib Creapers that are over 15 years old, and some of the oldest nibs started to lay down too wet, too-broad lines. Heretofore, individual nibs weren't available. I am very, very pleased to be able to replace these old nibs.

The pen I bought this for is one that Goulet didn't have in stock -- a Noodler's Boston Safety Pen. It's a really neat pen, but showed up writing inconsistently -- hard starts, akin to how some other pens might behave with baby's bottom. Installing this nib made all the difference -- the pen behaves the way I wanted it to in the first place.

I bought this nib for a non Noodler's pen repair hack. I'm not sure it will work for that but it is good to have a spare. I have a bunch of clear Nib Creapers for ink testing a love them. It is easy to see the ink and you get a great flex nib in a pen that is quick and easy to clean.

I've had a Noodler's Creaper for about 5 years and it is my go to pen for Journaling as it adds some personality and emotion to my writing. I DROPPED it and bent the nib....badly. I came to Goulet's site for a replacement pen, maybe a different color, and some more bulletproof Black Noodler's ink. To my surprise, Goulet had replacement nibs for my original pen. I bought the new pen, ink, and 2 replacement nibs. (Who knows when you might need a spare?) I have replaced the bent nib, filled both pens and both are my new best favorites. The nibs have just enough flex to add some interest to my scrawls and I love the new purple pen. Guess I'll have to alternate the use of my Noodler's pens.

Out of the +40 fountains pens that I own, this particular Noodler's pen had some factory dents in the nib. I DID NOT buy this pen from Goulet Pens. But I DID buy a replacement FLEX nib from Goulet Pens. It was a perfect replacement and matches exactly to the damaged original.Very satisfied with this purchase.

Great Performance!

I bought the flex nib for my work pen, it runs a little wet, but the Noodler's pens are easily adjustable. I enjoy using a flex nib because it causes me to slow down and pay more attention to my writing.

The nib on my Nib Creaper has seen better days--it has been used A LOT, suffered a few falls, and isn't the prettiest (though it still works). So I decided to get it a replacement, as well as a spare to put in the Charlie pen, so I can have flex as well as ink capacity. These little nibs have some great flexability! Even more than the larger #6 Noodler's nibs, which are stiffer by comparison. I imagine I'll be picking up more of these in the future as I buy inks and continue to tinker.

The Creaper nib i received works very well with the Charlie free pen, even without replacing the feed. While not exactly flexible it's very pleasant to write with, it's much smoother than my Lamy Safari F nib, the line is thinner than the Lamy F if no pressure is applied. It's a very wet nib, needs to be adjusted on the feed to find the right balance between blurping and regular flow but that is not an issue as both feed and nib come off the grip very easily. Im gonna buy a noodler's pen for my birthday, hope the ahab and/or the neponset nibs will provide a similarly awesome experience.

I put the Creaper nib into the Charlie pen that came with Noodler's Heart of Darkness so I could try out the nib. That worked... Having some flow issues from the eye dropper pen, so to be fair I would have to order the Creaper and use it in its' natural habitat. Light drawing hatches produces a medium/fine line that is almost noticeably thinner across than the down stroke giving it a personality when writing than the regular no flex nib that came with Charlie. Of course that all goes away when writing with variable pressure. This is where the nib shines and is fun to write with. It can be used straight up, no pressure, or with a little more effort make flaring ligatures. On the bonus side using it upside down produces the thinnest hair line. Good for sketching and cross hatch so long as there is no pressure applied while using it in this mode. The variation of the line is not huge, but it's a nib with personality.

In a recent purchase of Noodler's Ink I received a Charlie Pen which came with a stiff nib. The purchase of this Creeper nib allowed me the option of adding a little flex and variety to my writing experience.

I bought last month and six month ago and it is always perfet !

Very pleased to have some extra nibs... I had converted one Creaper with a Hero nib and one with an old Waterman and think I'll put them back as they were--but couldn't find the nibs!
