N77. Hunt 101 Imperial.
A very steady and durable nib, the Hunt 101 is a great choice for projects that require larger writing with x-heights above 1/4". It can be used on most paper surfaces, though it can have a tendency to catch on the upstroke when used on a rougher surface. The Hunt 101 requires firm and deliberate pressure to open swells, while its strength and steadiness makes it an ideal selection for student practice. Bronze finish.

Shinah of Crooked Calligraphy notes that the Hunt Imperial 101 nib is "a super flexible nib with a very sharp point best suited for advanced calligraphers," and "because of its flexibility and sharp point" she finds this nib is "great for delicate styles that require a lot of control and precision, like Copperplate." Shinah discusses in more detail her five favorite nibs (Nikko G, Brause Steno, Brause 66EF, Leonard Hiro 41, and Hunt 101) here: https://www.crookedcalligraphy.com/blog/choosing-calligraphy-nibs. She teaches a very popular, 8-week, live-taught online class, Modern Calligraphy 101.

The most flexible and reliable pointed pen

Flexible nib
Very nice nib, quite flexible. I’m just a beginner, may be this nib is too flexible to get a control on the strokes, but with a regular practice, it will be ok ?

Hunt 101 nib
This is one of my favorite nibs to write Ornamental Spencerian Script with. It makes a very thin line, but when asked to make a beautiful swell, it just performs wonderfully!

This is my go-to nib. Nice and flexible, holds a good amount of ink. A definite favorite.

Hunt 101
This nib has a real flair, heavy down strokes and hair-line up strokes. It requires a little learning to use it properly.

Excellent nibs
Nice item, as described, fast shipment. New customer; excellent selection of products, I’ll be back. Great vendor!

Best ever!
Always my go-to nib. Love the contrast between hairlines and swells, holds a decent amount of ink, suitable for a wide range of x-heights (for very small 3mm I prefer the Gillott 303), perfect flex, doesn't catch on most paper, can be used with slightly textured paper.
