Description

N81. Plue Pumpkin Nib / Hiro / Leonardt #40 Nib

The Hiro #40 Nib (Blue Pumpkin) nib no longer has "Hiro" stamped on it; instead, it is now stamped "Leonardt."

One of our most popular nibs for Copperplate. Large, durable nib appropriate for writing at x-heights of 3/16" to 1/8". Hairlines are fine and uniform, upstrokes smooth.
Sometimes called Leonard Steno or Manuscript Steno.

The quality of this nib matches the low price. For a higher-quality version of this nib, see N90. Brause Steno Nib.

- Good for pointed pen scripts
- Made in England
- Blued Steel, rounded shape with cut-outs
- Stamped on nib:Steno [in script] / Leonardt / -- 40 -- / England
- Similar shape to Brause Steno Nib 361 (item code N90)

    These nibs are ideal for me. I'm not experienced enough to tell the difference from Hunt brand and these are lower price.

    This is a great nib. Has a lot of ‘spring’ to it. I like it because I am heavy handed and I like its responsiveness.

    I am trying to decide if I like these or the steno nib better. If you like a fine line, this is your point.

    FLEX NIB

    Posted by frederick on May 26th 2012

    I have this nib, and I think its also called a steno-nib. Its a very nice nib and works well. Fine lines-thick flourishes. It does it well. Its a very spingy nib, and I like the feel. I like it better than my Hiro Crown nib. Its more consistant.
