The pronounced right-hand slope the copperplate hand requires can be helped by the ‘elbow-oblique’ pen which is held at one angle while the nib points in another. Alternatively you may use the Oblique Penholder together with any suitable pointed nib.

Rectangular pointed nibs, which have been invented by the German Calligrapher Karlgeorg Hoefer, create a very special stroke. A description (in German language) can be found here. Unfortunately these nibs are no longer manufactured and are very rare to be found. The square pointed nibs which are manufactured in the US (Speedball A-Series) are not as interesting, but are still worth trying them out.
Speedball A-Series nibs have a square pointed nib tip. A-0 to A-4 nibs have a double split nib tip, enabling for a lighter and faster ink flow.

Oval pointed nibs create an interesting and unusual stroke, but are also not being manufactured anymore.
This kind of nib has been designed for drawing musical notes. It has a double split nib tip, which allows for an extreme wide range of stroke widths and the possibility of writing very creative scripts:
As of recently the William Mitchell No. 0268 is again being manufactured.
Broad stroke, high flexibilty.
Kräftiger Strich, hohe Elastizität.
Music ruling nibs are used for the drawing of music lines. For the drawing of decoratations they are suitable to a limited extent.
