Use and care
- Initial ink flow may be slow due to the nib's protective coating, improving with rinsing and ink application.
- Max writing angle: 45 degrees.
- Gently twist when removing the nib to avoid dislodging the mount.
- Strong impact to the precision-made nib may compromise ink flow.
-
Rinse frequently during use to prevent dry ink build-up in grooves.
- For stubborn ink, gently scrub with a soft toothbrush in water.
- Use pH-neutral detergent; avoid alkaline types as they will damage the surface
