## Description

Tachikawa Comic Pen Nib Holder for Various Pen Nib, Model 25

Review: It works as intended. - It was a gift. they really liked it. I see they use it now and its all stained up so it was a win choice. Thats all I know. It gets used and it hasnt broken yet as of this distantly late review.
Review: Fits almost all brands of nib! - I’m never going back to the metal fit nib holders! The rubber is so much nicer to get a nib into AND out of. So pleased!! This nib holder has done great with almost every type of nib I’ve got. Speedball C’s and B’s, Hunt Imperial, Hunt 107, Brause Arrow, Blue Pumpkin, G nibs, etc etc. One nib holder to rule them all! My Hunt mapping nib is a tiny loose, but still useable; of course my Tachikawa brand one fits snugly. The only brand that does not fit at all are my Leonardt Round calligraphy nibs. (The Leonardt EF Principal does work.) Mitchell nibs fit great though. However, since this is mainly a drawing, not a calligraphy, nib holder, I’m not too fussed about this. It is a shorter holder, which I greatly prefer. The wood feels nice. The grip section is a bit thicker than most holders you find at the craft store, which is easier on the hand. I used it for hours to test it, and had no hand strain or fatigue. It IS shorter than either the Tachikawa T-40 or T-36. This nib holder is just shy of 5” long. If you’ve got big hands or prefer a little more length, try one of the others, which have the same style of rubber nib holder. Overall, I think it’s a great first nib holder, and a great option for paring down an excessive nib holder collection. And you can’t beat the price. 10/10 would recommend!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does this hold deleter nibs?**
A: Yes, these do.

**Q: Are the nib holding rings sturdy? got a speedball set. nibs are good. nib holder is crap.**
A: In my experience it holds the larger drawing/calligraphy nibs well, but not well for the smaller crow quill/mapping nibs, which are loose in the holder

**Q: Does this hold quill nibs?**
A: I purchased this Tachikawa Pen Nib Holder, Model 25, for holding a Leonardt Principal EF nib that felt loose in my other holders.  It works great!  To answer your question, I found my CROW QUILL nibs from the 1990s, which may be the "quill nibs" you're asking about.  I just now tried two of these vintage nibs.  One is a Zebra, its number too small for me to read; the other is a Kingsley 2788.  Both of these nibs slipped into the T-25 without forcing and they feel firm.  Furthermore, as I've used "regular" nibs for current Copperplate script writing projects, I've come to prefer this holder.  It's comfortable in my small hands.

**Q: Will a Brause ef 66 work with this pen holder?**
A: I've been using the Brause #66 "arrow" in this Model T-25 holder.  It fits firmly without forcing.
