Italic
The Italic Family
The cursive italic grind, with a wide down-stroke and a narrower cross-stroke. This has more rounded edges to be more pleasant and forgiving to write with – the most popular option.A more rounded and even more forgiving option is the stub, which is what inspired other well known nib designs such as the Journaler.
The converse, a less forgiving but more precise nib is the crisp italic grind, which sacrifices ease of use (to an extent) for maximum line variation with the thinnest cross stroke.
For pre-ground nibs purchased from Inkcision, a full refund (exclusive of shipping charges) will be issued if the nib does not meet the buyer’s satisfaction. The buyer is responsible for all return shipping costs and must return the nib in its original condition, unused, and unaltered. Refunds will not be issued for nibs that have been altered or damaged after receipt.
In stock nibs will be shipped within 2 business days of order. Nibs that are not in stock can still be ordered, with a turn-around time of 1 week.
