A hooded nib is a type of fountain pen nib that is enclosed within a protective metal or plastic housing. This design helps to prevent the nib from being damaged and also provides a smoother writing experience. However, hooded nibs can be more difficult to clean and maintain than other types of nibs.
There are a few different ways to remove a hooded nib. One method is to use a pair of tweezers to gently pull the nib out of the housing. Another method is to use a small screwdriver to pry the nib out. Whichever method you choose, be sure to be careful not to damage the nib or the housing.
