A review of the Conklin Duragraph fountain pen with the Omniflex steel flexible nib. An overview of the pen and a writing test to see how much flex it delivers.
You make a good point about writing slower. It also helps to bring out the best in your ink, allowing less saturated inks to shade. It also helps the feed to keep up and prevents railroading.
Good afternoon from Spain. I have seen her channel and I have subscribed. I have two Coklin Duragraph fountain pens with Omniflex F nib. They write well but the nib flex is poor. For me it is a bit hard and I am worried about forcing it for fear that it will break
Does the Omniflex nib flex? Yes but as you pointed out, not a very flexible nib unless you add more pressure. Are there other nibs that work better? Yes, but at their price point, it is a worthy contender.
