Jim,

It's the process of reshaping the tip of the nib for your various sizes and styles - bold, fine, italic, etc. Some use the term meaning, to "condition" or "smooth out" an existing style. People use sand stones, wet grinding, sanding, and even Micromesh. Anthony Turchetta has written on it a few times and can be found doing at search of the site. Hope this helps.

Grinding a Nib - Accidently putting the wrong end of the pen in your mouth. Grinding, gnashing of teeth. A mistake you only make once or twice. :D
