The Madison Blue comes with a steel clip and a 2-tone ring on the cap
We offer a variety of nib units. Click on the hyperlinked options below to explore each nib choice in detail.
Regular #6 Nib Units: Select from Osprey's regular Size 6 nibs in Steel, Gold, or 2Tone. These nibs are ideal for everyday writing, include a plastic feed, and accept international standard converters or pre-filled ink cartridges, allowing you to use either bottled ink or convenient cartridges. Your pen includes an Osprey custom converter by default.
#6 Steel Special Grind Nibs: For a customized writing experience, explore our economical Special Grind options such as Architect Broad, Architect BB, Zoom BB, Broad Left-Oblique, Broad Right-Oblique, Broad Stub, or Double Broad Stub. These specialty nibs also accept international standard converters or pre-filled ink cartridges, offering flexibility to use bottled ink or cartridges.
Ultra-flex and other Specialty Nibs: Designed specifically for calligraphy enthusiasts, choose from our #6 Ultra-flex, Titanium Ultra-flex, or Zebra G nib units. Ultra-flex nib units feature custom ebonite feed.
Zebra G nib units: Compatible exclusively with the custom Osprey converter (not suitable for cartridges or standard converters).
Important Notes:
· Avoid India inks to prevent clogging the ebonite feeds; use fountain pen-friendly inks only.
· If selecting the Zebra G nib assembly, we recommend adding a nib-block kit if you don't already own one. Download our maintenance guide to easily disassemble and reassemble your flex nib & feed as needed. Note: The nib-block kit does not accommodate size 6 nibs; please use the provided grip tool in the kit, for disassembling size 6 nib units.
This review is only for the pen body, as I did not buy a nib with the pen. The body of the pen feels well made, the threads are nicely made and the converter works well. I swapped in a pilot parallel 1.5mm nib and it works perfectly, no leaking or burping. This pen also looks like it could be eye droppered pretty easily. Very good value.
For the parallel nib swap: Simply insert the parallel nib into the section. It will take a little force (but not much). Then fill the pen using whatever method you like. It feels like there is enough room for the larger parallel nibs as well. Very good alternative than spending 100+ for an Opus 88 for nib swapping.
