Keeping in line with the Osprey philosophy of interchangeable nib units, a wide variety of nib units are offered below that will work with this pen.  Click on the hyperlinked choices to learn more about the nibs.

  • Choose from Osprey Regular Size 6 nib units in Steel or 2ToneAll Regular nibs used for everyday writing, come with a plastic feed and accept international standard converters or pre-filled ink cartridges, giving you the flexibility to use either bottled ink or pre-filled ink cartridge. The pen is fitted with an Osprey custom converter by default and is packaged in a premium pen box.
  • #6 Steel  Economical Special Grinds such as the Architect Broad, Architect BB, Zoom BB, Broad Left-Oblique or Broad Right-Oblique, Broad-Stub or Double Broad Stub. Similar to the Regular Size 6 nibs, the Speciality Grind nibs also accept international standard converters or pre-filled ink cartridges, giving you the flexibility to use either bottled ink or pre-filled ink cartridge or use with Osprey custom converter. 
  • #5.5 Ultra-flex#6 Ultra-flex (second generation)Zebra G or Titanium Ultra-flex assemblies:  Ultra-flex (UF) nibs are for ardent calligraphy users! You can purchase these as complete assembly for a seamless plug & play experience, or buy just nib units to swap. The assembly consists of an ultra-flex nib unit of your choice, which threads into the Outer Section of the pen, and comes with an Osprey converter. Only fountain-pen friendly inks  are recommended to avoid clogging the feed.
  • All ultra-flex and Zebra G nib units come with ebonite feed. Size 5.5 Ultra-flex, Zebra G Flex and Titanium Ultra-flex are non-cartridge type, meaning they do not take any prefilled ink cartridges or international converters. They are made to work with custom Osprey converters. Size 6 Ultra-flex nib units (second generation) on the other hand, take both, cartridge or  converter, which means you can use prefilled ink cartridges or use bottled ink.
    • If you choose #5.5Ultra-flex or Zebra G flex nib-units/assemblies, be sure to add a nib-block kit , if you don't already have one. You can download a maintenance guide that helps in easy disassembly and assembly, when the feeds get clogged over time with use. The nib block does not accommodate size 6 nibs, you will instead need to use the grip provided in the kit for disassembly and assembly.

    BEST "EVERYDAY" PEN EVER!

    I bought the SCHOLAR - ROYAL BLUE, WITH FLEXPERT ZEBRA G FLEX mainly because I was intrigued by a flexing nib in a "normal" fountain pen. Then I fell in love with the "stock nib" of the scholar. I've been writing with fountain pens (fpn) for about 35 years now and this pen is incredibly smooth and silky feeling. You can write really fast or really slow, the ink flow is perfect everytime. I filled mine with Diamine Tchaikovsky and I get regular compliments about my beautiful notes. The Scholar is a sturdy pen, a workhorse. It's robust but still feels slim and nice to touch. The cap screws on, so you can't accidentally lose it in your bag. The nib is gorgeous, it writes smooth on just about every paper I tried (my favorite being Rhodia). I've been writing with it for about 2 months now and it feels just as gorgeous as on day 1. If you want a highly affordable pen, that feels like a very expensive luxury pen, get the scholar. You'll fall in love with fpn again and want to take handwritten notes all day long. Regarding the flexpert Zebra G flex - I'm a total noob concerning calligraphy, dip pens, etc. So getting the Zebra G was a bit of a reach for me, as I'm not advanced enough to use it's full potential. If you're like me, look at some of the other flex nibs on this site, they feel more like a fountain pen and you'll be satisfied with your calligraphy efforts!
