There are not many manufacturer that offer a wide range of nibs. I discovered the Peilikan O3B nib. This is not a popular nib and not easily available. It is not stock by local retailers. Hence, I will just have to order one.
I was very excited after receiving the pens in 2 weeks. I wasted no time, and immediately ink in on the same day.
Here is a first try, writing using the Pelikan M800 with O3B nib.
When I first filled the pen, it write pretty smooth except toward the end of the page. It started to skip and ink flow start to have problem. As it is a O3B ink, it ink consumption is very high. I needed to fill the pen very night.
I used the pen for a month, and the ink flow problem is very consistent. This problem occurred when the ink is about a quarter full.

After a long day, my hand became very tired because I needed to adjust my angle of writing. This is a nib not for a right handed writer.
