The Needlepoint - Esterbrooks Latest Custom Grind by Kirk Speer
Kirk Speer of Pen Realm has developed a needlepoint nib that's perfectly balanced for your Esterbrook.  A super-fine grind that creates a sharp point on the nib. This grind is great for those who practice character writing (such as Kanji), or for those who simply have a smaller writing style in general, for artists who work in fine lines, and for notetaking. Academics, mathematicians, and scientists appreciate the fine nib for their own work as well. Because of the super-fine point, really wet inks work great with a needlepoint as the needlepoint acts to slow down the flow and lays less of the wet ink on the paper. It should be noted because it is so fine, a needlepoint is terrible for anything with shimmer in it as it will clog up the nib. And a needlepoint does really well on cheaper paper not specifically designed for fountain pens, given how controlled the ink flow is, which means less feathering and bleeding on the paper.

The Journeler by Gena Salorino
A medium stub grind, based on the vintage Esterbrook 9314M nib. The idea is that it’s smooth and friendly enough for everyday use, gives your writing some flair, all without being too huge for practical writing.

The Scribe by Josh Lax
The Scribe is Josh’s take on an architect nib. Historically, this nib has been bespoke: cut for an individual, their writing style and how they hold the pen. To create this nib for a wider audience, Josh was given the task of cutting these nibs en masse, keeping the integrity of an architect, while avoiding any catch on the top or bottom as one writes with it. It gives the writer the flexibility of fine downstrokes and broad horizontal strokes and can also be used in reverse for additional variation.
