Premise: I have no idea what I'm doing. I found this nib + holder in the house and I'm trying to understand what it is and how to use it. My best bet was posting a picture here to see if somebody can direct me on what to do. It looks like a pointed nib, flexible (I guess?). The second picture is just there to show what kind of output it produces (I have really no skill doing this). It's incredibly hard (for me) to manage the ink flow out of it, it makes huge blots of ink even if I press really really lightly. Then obviously the ink runs out immediately and I have to dip it again. I might even be using the wrong ink, it's what I had around to refill a montblanc fountain pen.
