Actually jon, there are i believe 2 fude nib pens from sailor that have different angles so they make different size strokes, i have the slightly more expensive pink pearl one and oh my god, i love this nib so much i literally cried when the cat kicked it off my table and messed the tine alignment up and have spent way too long playing with a loupe trying to get the nib feeling back to how it was out of the box.
Okay went and looked on amazon so the cheaper style body pens are green which is the 55 degree nib and the navy one is 40 degree.
I have 2 fude bent nib pens, one by art tools that came with a double ended travel watercolor brush and the sailor one i believe the pink body one i have is 55 degrees? And there is a size difference in the strokes. I would assume that just based on small differences that are always present when you compare brands for any kind of product, there will be size varation for each brand of nib. The problem is a lot lf the cheaper branded pens use the same kind brand nib so pay attention to who makes the nib not the pen itself and when in doubt ask the seller for a writing sample from the pen.
