The Brause EF66 is one of our most popular nibs, and is loved by calligraphers everywhere for it's flexibility, impressive strength, and amazing line variation. From tiny hairlines to juicy downstrokes, this nib does it all. The Brause EF 66 also does not catch as easily as most extra-fine nibs, so it makes a great choice for lettering on textured paper. Sometimes referred to as "the Arrow" due to its unique shape.

This nib is ideal for intermediate or advanced level calligraphers and is not recommended for beginners. Excellent for Copperplate, modern calligraphy, and tiny writing. Suitable for Spencerian.

This nib will not fit standard holders; try one of our adjustable holders, or a holder specially fitted to hold the Brause EF66:
Ink Slinger 66
Pocket Scribbler Oblique EF66
Ziller Oblique Holder 66, Red
Mitchell #51 Crowquill and Small Nib Holder
Hunt 104 Penholder

    Very flexible, amazing for casual writing too, even tho calligraphy is not exactly my purpose (my work is mostly drawing). Its flexibility for drawing makes it easy to lineart different thickness for a same lineart, it's a really good nib if you want to have just one, it is an incredible pick. Now I'm a happy person that has this tiny version of my other nib, they're like twins, hahah. I waited very eagerly for my pens to drop by and I was fully amazed by everything, from the nibs to the store assistance and kindness. I can't recommend enough!

    This is an outstanding nib and one of my favorites. But just remember that this is a very flexible nib. So, if you are a beginner, be very patient and practice on a light touch for the upstrokes and you will be rewarded with very fine lines. And because it is so flexible you can also get some terrific thick downstrokes!

    this nib is smooth and flexible yet firm to write with. makes both hairlines and thick swell very nicely.
