What is "Medium tending towards fine"?
My friend Jaisiri who is a fountain pen aficionado will know.
When I went to Gem and Co. years back to buy a fountain pen, the salesman gave
me a few pens which I tried. The flow from one particular nib fascinated me.
After I selected my pen, he said: Fit it with a nib, medium tending towards fine.
The next time I went to that shop, I spoke like an expert (which I am not!)
'I want this pen with a medium nib, medium, tending towards fine!'
