Nakaya Nibs
We can offer the entire range of Nakaya nibs from extra-extra-fine to broad. Please note that the Nakaya nibs run finer than any other nib, by name, than any we know about. This means that the medium Nakaya nib is roughly equivalent to a Pelikan or Bexley fine. They run about a half size smaller than the Namiki nibs. Here is the Nakaya nib description from their web site:
Super Extra Fine, 0.18 to 0.24mm. Especially suited for fine numbers and characters, suitable for bookkeeping.
Extra Fine, 0.24 to 0.28mm. For fine numbers and characters, suitable for students' note taking.
Fine, 0.28 to 0.34mm. For general fine characters, suitable for students' note taking.
Medium, 0.34 to 0.44mm. Smooth writing, suitable for general writing.
Broad, 0.44 to 0.54mm. Suitable for manuscript, address writing.
Extra Broad, 0.66 to 0.86mm. Suitable for those who love broad writing.


For an additional $80.00 for the single tone and $125 for the two-tone we can provide the double slit music nib. It is much like a stub with a generous ink delivery.
There are the two versions of the Nakaya music nib. The one to the right is 14K gold with a platinum mask. Each of these nibs delivers a generous stubby line.

Nakata is the family name for the people who started both Nakaya and Platinum Pen Companies.
We also offer additional customizations to Nakata nibs, including re-tipping to large sizes and increasing flexibility.
Because the Nakaya cartridge has a large opening, and the connection to the feed is also large, this cartridge/converter system is not plagued with the ink delivery problems sometimes found on pens that employ a smaller fitting.
