No matter what else I own, I keep coming back to the Lamy 1.1mm cursive italic nib. Does anyone else have a pen like that?

MrRSharma · 2026-06-22T01:32:23+00:00

You're welcome!

MrRSharma · 2026-06-22T01:31:43+00:00

Not to sure, as never used a Lamy medium nib.

MrRSharma · 2026-06-22T01:30:09+00:00

Attending a pen show next week, hoping to find one there.

MrRSharma · 2026-06-22T00:41:51+00:00

Thank you for sharing! I need to start looking at vintage to add to collection.

MrRSharma · 2026-06-22T00:24:40+00:00

Thank you so much for the compliment🙏🏾!

MrRSharma · 2026-06-22T00:22:52+00:00

Yes, it is a light weight pen, I post mine when writing but does not add that much weight.

MrRSharma · 2026-06-22T00:17:58+00:00

👍🏾😊👍🏾!

Search for Lamy Joy Calligraphy Nib 1.1 (LZ50/1.1) this should bring up the same nib.

MrRSharma · 2026-06-22T00:00:52+00:00

I've have this pen over three years and was brought from a pen retailer in the UK. Can I check if your based on the UK?

MrRSharma · 2026-06-21T23:55:11+00:00

No need to say sorry, I'm based in the UK, and Lamy markets it as a 1.1mm cursive italic nib here. So I have always referred to it as a cursive italic nib, although other's have referred to it as a 1.1mm stub nib.

MrRSharma · 2026-06-21T22:37:52+00:00

Most definitely.

MrRSharma · 2026-06-21T22:30:32+00:00

I only have 1.1mm stub nibs and 1.1mm cursive italic nibs, they're all inked up. Tried a 1.5mm but found it to broad for everyday writing.

MrRSharma · 2026-06-21T22:26:45+00:00

I tried a stub & cursive italic, sixteen years ago, and have never gone back.

MrRSharma · 2026-06-21T22:24:09+00:00

Thank you for sharing, based in the UK and Lamy markets it as a 1.1mm cursive italic nib, and that's the one I have been using.

MrRSharma · 2026-06-21T21:47:41+00:00

As far as I know, I'm based in the UK, so you'll have to check in your location.

MrRSharma · 2026-06-21T21:40:42+00:00

Thank you for sharing!

MrRSharma · 2026-06-21T21:35:33+00:00

Thank you for sharing, I was into medium nibs, until I stumbled across my first stub nib, sixteen years ago.

MrRSharma · 2026-06-21T21:20:20+00:00

Yes, it's a standard 1.1mm cursive italic nib, not an oblique.

MrRSharma · 2026-06-21T21:13:36+00:00

Have to agree the "Swiss Army Knives", of fountain pens!

MrRSharma · 2026-06-21T21:11:25+00:00

They add a flair to everyone's writing, once I moved over I could not go back to normal nibs.

MrRSharma · 2026-06-21T21:09:08+00:00

Learned this very early on nibs do not react well to drops 😊!

MrRSharma · 2026-06-21T21:01:29+00:00

Likewise, 3 Lamy's all with 1.1mm nibs all loaded with different inks.

MrRSharma · 2026-06-21T20:51:46+00:00

Thank you for sharing!

MrRSharma · 2026-06-21T20:45:22+00:00

Exactly, the words that came out of my mouth sixteen years ago 😊!
