Tape nibs

Tape are square cut nibs. Like the Brause Bandzug they have the reservoir above the nib and are cut at a slight angle. Not for left handed.

Although the nibs do also write in pristine new condition, they improve if passed quickly over the flame of a lighter. Alternatively, you can dip them in boiling water. After these treatments they hold more ink. The excellent price makes them suitable for beginners and students attending workshops.
