Try to bend it back with pliers or something. It may not be as good as it was before, but it can definitely rescue it from the dump.
I won't be dumping it yet. I was going to try bending it back. Good thing I have a small pliers.
A jeweler or an orthodontic assistant (or orthodontist) should be able to fix that perfectly.
I bent it back. I could have gone a lot slower tbh. But it's usable now. It's not an expensive pen so that's why I am willing to do it. And i think I'm going to use this as my test pen to learn nib tuning.
