Moblique Pastel Dual Penholder

They are less than $10, and you get what you pay for. The saving grace of these is the way they feel - very good in the hand. They are very light, almost too light if you come from a wooden, metal, or acrylic holder. I used the nib storage for ballast by adding a stainless pin to add some grams. Out of the four, two work as intended, and the other two are obnoxious. On one of them, if you rest your thumb on the flange, you'll invariably push the flange out of the holder, and it'll fall out if you need to wipe the nib off. I ended up super-gluing the flange, so it's reduced to a simple oblique holder. The other one is strictly a straight holder for the same reason. Like I said, they feel great, but don't expect superior performance from them.

This pen holder is inexpensive but does the job! I like that it can switch to oblique and straight and that it’s nice and lightweight. Happy so far!

I love the feel of the penholder in my hand. I do a lot of hand lettering with dip pens and fountain pens. This one is great!

I really like the extra nib storage, and that it easily converts from an oblique to a straight pen holder.

The holder feels nice and soft, feels great in the hand.

Very nice.

I own several of these Moblique holders in different colors. I like the rubbery feel and find holder very comfortable to use. Currently, I use this with my Tachikawa G and Nikko G nibs. In general all my Nikko G nibs fit in my Mobliques. My Tachikawa G nib has a hard time going into the brass flange. I have to remove the flange and place my Tachikawa in the flange and place the flange/nib into my Moblique. It's a nice solid fit. I've noticed my Zebra G nibs (which I rarely use) slide in and out of all my Moblique holders. If I end up using my Zebra Gs again, I would adjust one of the brass flange to fit that nib. I love that I can twist off the body swap around the grips and bodies of my other Moblique holders to make different color combinations. The Mobliques are comfortable to use and reasonably priced.

I found this holder very nice to hold. The coating is a matte, rubbery material.

These are my new favorite holders! They are comfortable to hold, I really like the nib storage for traveling. The flange is easy to adjust for the different nibs and the different colors available let me color code which holder I use for which nib!

I had such high hopes for these, I have bought a few, but I don't feel they are made very well. The flange has been loose on one, and the nikko nibs don't stay well...a staple for all calligraphers IMO.
