The feed is paired with a custom wide-mouth Zebra G converter designed specifically to meet the high ink demands of the Zebra G nib.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis combination provides exceptional ink flow for Copperplate, Spencerian, sketching, illustration, and expressive handwriting applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eImportant Compatibility Information\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlease note that the Zebra G JoWo-compatible section is compatible only with the Osprey custom Zebra G converter supplied with the pen. Standard international converters, standard JoWo converters, Schmidt converters, and other aftermarket converters are not compatible with this Zebra G system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe pen may also be used in eyedropper configuration without a converter. However, this is done entirely at the user's discretion and risk. Certain highly saturated or permanent inks may stain demonstrator or lighter-colored pen materials over time. Osprey Pens cannot guarantee against staining resulting from eyedropper use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMaintenance \u0026amp; Care\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause Zebra G nibs are manufactured from spring steel rather than stainless steel, they require periodic maintenance and eventual replacement as part of normal use.
