Closeups of both the Sheaffer and the Lamy nibs.

I love how the Lamy nib comes right off the front of the pen and is interchangeable with other Lamy nibs. It is very easy to turn a fine pen into a broad pen and you can even get 14k gold nibs off the same variety and turn your $30 Lamy into $130 Lamy.

The Sheaffer fine nib on the other hand, writes a touch nicer. It's a bit wetter and makes thicker lines than the Lamy fine. I wouldn't get this pen in anything but a fine as it's somewhere between the Lamy fine and Medium. Overall it's a good writing experience for the money.
