Oh man, my nib usage is so weird! I mostly do envelope work where customers provide their own envelopes, and often I'm mixing a custom ink color. So usually I'm working with a paper and ink combo that I've never used before. It usually takes a good hour to find the best nib for the job and often it ends up being a nib I haven touched on months. I do always start with my trusty blanzy 2552 though since its smooth, agreeable with most inks and papers, and overall just suits my hand.
If I'm practicing I'll grab any used nib I've got hanging around and use it till it won't write anymore. I try to make use of all my various nibs except a handful which I hate and need to give away. There aren't many of those though.
