Fountain pens. They don't make custom alloys of gold specifically for their nibs any more because they're not ubiquitous. An old "wet noodle" italic Parker or Waterman is a writing experience to behold.
Try out fudepens too. Fountain pens, but with a brush end. Sometimes they're refillable (my preference), sometimes they're not. They make them with actual bristle brush tips, but also foam tips like calligraphy markers.
I've come to really enjoy them.
I'm more fond of dip pens, they are terribly impractical but for me it's a joy.
One of my favourite nibs is the blue pumpkin.
It's my all time favourite. Brause Steno
