Changed for another nib shortly after pen was purchased. The cap and body is made of the well-known highquality resin, with the famous striped sleeve made of cellulose acetate. I have limited experience with italic nibs, my other ones are Lamy 1.1 and 1.5. What are your experiences? Around the year 2012, Pelikan discontinued production of oblique nibs in the widths of OM, OB, OBB, and O3B. It is too thick and wet to use as a daily writer.I think a stubbed/cursive italic broad nib would work much better as a daily writer than a factory IB nib, however, this requires finding somebody that does custom grinds where you are.In general, yes, the nib is thick and wet.

I would not be happy if all my stubs and Italics were as wide as the factory IB. I thought the Pelikan "I" nib produced "softer" and less "crisp" lines. It will have the famous soft Pelikan quality. It is indeed a 1.5 nib. \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Pelikan M800 fountain pen is the second largest pen in Pelikan’s Souveran (Sovereign) range, and it the most popular model - the IB Italic Broad nib is around 1.5mm in width and comes in either the Black, Green Striated or Blue Striated models.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #2b00ff;\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.pelikanpens.co.uk\/collections\/pelikan-souveran-m800-05-fountain-pens\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Pelikan M800 Models\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" style=\"color: #2b00ff;\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eFor more information on the M800, see the individual product pages - \u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.pelikanpens.co.uk\/pages\/pelikan-size-comparisons\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Pelikan M1000 Size Comparison\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" style=\"color: #2b00ff;

My particular IB is quite wet which limits its use in my rotation, I guess it depends on your writing style if such a broad nib will be suitable. I think it totally depends on your writing style.
Smooth and the flow is good.I like this nib for writing Christmas cards and such (although did not use it this year)But a 1.1 or in some cases a 1.3 (Visconti) is maximum for me.Prefer a 0.9-1.0 nib (I have a great one made by John Sorowka for my Onoto; and some other nice ones as well...)I have the gold IB nib o my M800 and the steel I on my M200 Congnac.
