Each Pilot Vanishing Point Collection Fountain Pens we sell is guaranteed to be genuine, authentic and will arrive brand new & unused!
This is a unique pen and the thing that makes it really unique is the way the nib retracts into the pen and hides the nib. With most fountain pens you'll have to take the cap off or it has a cap to protect the nib, but this one actually retracts into the pen, similar to a ballpoint pen. This particular pen is either a cartridge or a converter style. It comes with both. The converter is inside the pen and you have to unscrew this top housing and then you can pull the whole section out, which you can replace that converter with a cartridge. This converter is a screw type converter. You have to be real careful putting it back in it that you put the nib the right direction so it doesn't damage the nib putting it back in. That screws right back onto the pen.
Underneath the false bottom of this box you have the extra cartridge if you would rather use that and it also has the user and care guide.
This is a great pen. It is really unique. You have got to have one of these. Get yours today at PenChalet.com!

Pilot Vanishing Point Collection Video Script
This is the Pilot Vanishing Point Collection Fountain Pen. We've got it shown here in the box which it comes in. It's a blue leather box which most of the Pilot pens come in. It's got a hinge on the back so you can tilt that open to display or show the pen if you like to. The particular model we've have here is the yellow color and it comes in a wide selection of colors. It comes in red, blue, and black. Each of them come with either the gold or silver accent trim. This is the chrome trim here with the gold.This is a unique pen and the thing that makes it really unique is the way the nib retracts into the pen and hides the nib. With most fountain pens you'll have to take the cap off or it has a cap to protect the nib, but this one actually retracts into the pen, similar to a ballpoint pen. This particular pen is either a cartridge or a converter style. It comes with both. The converter is inside the pen and you have to unscrew this top housing and then you can pull the whole section out, which you can replace that converter with a cartridge.

Pilot Vanishing Point Collection Reviews
You can buy this pen almost anywhere but I chose to purchase this pen and others from Pen Chalet because of the service sometimes free stickers and attention to details. I also like buying within the USA. I’m happy with my pen and I’m happy where I purchased it. Thank you.

This is my first Pilot Vanishing Point pen. I got the Medium NIB. The vanishing point is very smooth writing pen. I was concerned about the clip being in the way of my grip - I'm a lefty -- however that was not a problem at all. The pen felt great in my hand and fast became my favorite pen. I use this pen every day at work. Was a little spendie but I'm glad I purchased the pen. Pen Chalet has great customer service and the pen was shipped very fast - 3 days.

I got the Vanishing Point with a Medium nib and it is super smooth! It's my first 18K gold nib, and an extremely good buy for the price!

This pen is my second gold nib. I was not sure which nib size that going to work for me between the F nib and M nib. I researched it and found out that the Japanese nib is finer than the western nib. Since my Lamy 2000 is an F nib, I expected that the M nib in VF would be similar in thickness to Lamy 2000. So, I decided to go to the M nib. However, the VP's M nib is way broader than my other FPs' M nibs. It did not satisfy my expectation since I decided to purchase it as my EDC pen. But I see a lot of variation of sheen using this pen. Also, I was skeptical about the clip, but it does not bother me at all. I am thinking about getting the F nib in another color.

I absolutely LOVE this pen; it is a soft writing fine nib. It is a pleasure to write with and extremely practical. It catches the attention of others which can sometimes be a good thing. Long story short, this was a good buy.

This is a cool pen and I love the design, but I noticed it skips a lot when I write. I realized this isn't the pen's fault, but how I write. I shift my grip a lot so the tip of the pen isn't always hitting the paper at the right angle for optimal ink flow. I think with this particular nib it's more noticeable than with other nibs. I'm slowly trying to adjust...without hurting my wrist. We'll see how it goes. Other than that this is a great looking pen and it writes super, super smoothly.

I love the way this pen writes. At first the clip bothered me, but now I'm used to it. The vanishing point makes it very convenient and useful.

I love the vanishing point. Was hesitant due to the clip, but the clip is no issue. Love the black coated gold nib and the retractable mechanism. Medium line is like western medium and is very smooth - a lovely writer. It fits in my hands well and is not heavy - enjoyable daily writer. No hard starts, writes every time. One of my favorites. Thanks for the great service Pen Chalet!

FAQs about the Pilot Vanishing Point Collection
Q:
Is this pen appropriate for engraving?A:
The Pilot Vanishing Point is a great looking pen and will look wonderful with engraving. Q:
(I can see that other people have asked about the colour of the nib matching the trim of the pen, so I'm sorry to bother you with essentially the same question, but I just want to be sure) Does the Black Carbonesque come with a rhodium plated and coloured nib, even though it looks gold in the photo? Thanks very much A:
Yes the Black Carbonesque color of the Pilot Vanishing Point does match and the nib is the rhodium color.Q:
Does the Black Rhodium pen come with a rhodium stub nib? Or is it gold color?A:
Each of the nibs on the Pilot Vanishing Point pens come with a matching nib to the color of the pen. The Black Rhodium would have a rhodium color nib to match the rest of the pen.Q:
Does the Raden comes with a 18K gold , also in gold colour nib?A:
Yes the Pilot Vanishing Point fountain pen in the raden comes with a rhodium coated 18k gold nib that is silver in color. The photo is not correct.Q:
Do the Raden version come with a rhodium-plated nib now? (I believe Pilot is shipping them out with rhodium-plated nibs now, but I want to know what I'd get if I order from you!) Thanks!A:
Thank you for your question! Yes, the Raden version does have a rhodium-plated nib. Q:
Does this come with a CON-20 or a CON-50?A:
The Pilot Vanishing Point fountain pen comes with a Pilot Con-20 converter.Q:
I don't know a lot about VPs. Do these come with the converter unit, or does that have to be purchased separately? And is it easy/possible to swap out the nib units? Also, how likely are these to dry out if they're left open (especially with finer nibs)?A:
The Pilot Vanishing Point fountain pen comes with both one ink cartridge as well as an ink converter. There is no need to purchase one separately.When you change the ink on the pen you pull the entire nib and feed unit from the pen. The nib itself is not easily removed from the feed but you could easily swap entire nib and feed units from one vanishing point to another.
One of the features of the vanishing point is the retractable nib. This serves the same purpose as a cap on a standard fountain pen so the nib is not left in the open air to dry out. As long as you retract the pen when not in use it should not dry out with regular frequent use.
Q:
Are any of these the rhodium plated or black plated gold nibs that pilot offers or just the original solid gold style?A:
The Pilot Vanishing Point fountain pen in the matte black will come with a black colored nib that matches the pen. The nib is a glossy black. It looks like a very dark grey actually.
