Brause uses cold rolled steel to manufacture its nibs. This steel is delivered in reels which are required width for producing nibs. The steel is then pressed by tools specific to each model and nib size.
Even in a modern mill parts of the nib manufacturing process are still done by hand. The most delicate part of the operation involves cutting a slit down the middle, enabling the ink to flow correctly and freely from the reservoir to the tip of the nib. During this operation, and depending on the nib model, the tip is bent slightly to give it a spherical shape.
