I've just started using this pen, but I like it so far. The workmanship is very good. The clicky mechanism is solid and positive. I'm getting used to the nib, which does have a little bit of a sweet spot. It came a little dry, but putting a little pressure against my thumbnail with the nib made just eough difference. We'll see as I break it in.

This is my second vanishing point. My first one was a fine, while this one is a medium. The fine would always give me a little too much feedback for the weight of the pen and slow my personal handwriting style. However, this medium is much better. I wish they had an FM nib available in the U.S. market, which would likely be the best for me, but I am much happier with the M. I would definitely recommend a vanishing point to anyone who wants to move up to a higher value of pen. They are very practical and great writers. I do wish it was possible to better gauge the ink you have left when using a converter, as the con-40 and con-50 converters are buried inside the nib assembly to point that you cannot see how much ink is there. If you use a cartridge, it’s much easier.

Fantastic pen. It’s my first pen over $50, and the difference is immediately obvious. The good nib is soft and springy, and the writing experience is glass-smooth on most papers, with some pleasant feedback. The medium is wet and thick - more so than I would have expected, given the nib sizes in my Metros, but I like it. The click mechanism and trap door are great - both a great sound and great protection against the nib drying out. Quite simply, it’s my favorite pen I own.

My first nib was defective, and Pen Chalet customer support took amazing care of me. Let me swap out the nib unit, no questions-asked. They are fantastic!

Thanks to Pen Chalet's awesome prices, I've moved up into the big leagues of fountain pens: my first gold nib. Chose the Desert Orange but the actual colour reminds me more of harvest gold appliances. :-)

Terrific product - terrific price! I have several of the Vanishing Point pens that I rotate for daily use. Although I prefer the Broad point, the Medium point usually works well for daily writing. I also purchased two replacement nibs, so I can change out the Broad point for the Medium in order to rotate them for daily use. Overall, this is an excellent pen and makes a great "daily writer."

Fantastic pen! I like the feel of it in hand — maybe a tad on the heavier side than I'm accustomed to, but it writes very smoothly with no perceptible feedback. i was told I'd like it, and I really do!

This is my second Vanishing Point pen, this one with a fine nib. It's much smoother than the extra-fine and I can see it becoming my daily writer.

After hearing the praises of Vanishing Point pens for years I finally bought one & it's likely the best pen purchase I've made. The ease of use alone has made it an immediate daily carry & I suspect it's always going to be inked & in the rotation. NO problems at all with hard starts or leaks or iffy nibs: it writes a lovely Asian-fine line immediately upon deployment, every single time. There's a reason nearly all the pen collectors I know have a VP - it really is THAT good.
