TWSBI Vac 700 Fountain Pen - Blue, Extra-Fine March 2, 2013
Reviewer: Eugene Heng from Singapore, Singapore Singapore  
This is much better than the Fine one I purchased a while ago. The flow is wetter and there is a slight bit of flex.
I may try a medium soon for a smoother line.

My Every-Day Carry February 25, 2013
Reviewer: Matthew Corwin from Portland, OR United States  
I held out for the release of the clear model, and am delighted that I did.  The JoWo nib is superb, though I find that I must universally open up the flow to my desired characteristics--strictly a matter of preference.  This involves 14 seconds and two thumbnails without even pulling the nib.  I also remove the conical shutoff washer straight away, as I neither traverse mountain passes nor board planes with any frequency.  I do wish the faceted blind cap were of sufficient diameter to engage the desk surface to prevent rolling when uncapped, but I see how this would interfere with allowing the cap to post.  (I still personally fail to understand why anyone would be inclined to post this pen!  But this is very much a Coke vs Pepsi discussion.)  The manner in which the cap seats is much more solid and secure than my 540, and I anticipate fewer cracking issues as a result; the cap lip contacts the barrel step and reduces the side-to-side play that the 540 cap exhibits.

Beautiful write! January 18, 2013
Reviewer: Alfred Shum from Burnaby, BC Canada  
When I first received my Vac700, I swapped out the nib, filled it and did the little trick to fill it to the brim.  The EF tip writes like a F in Pilot nibs, it's smooth and wet, the tip is firm with not much flex but I love the way it handles.  For me using the pen seems better balanced without the cap posted, as with the cap posted there is a noticeable weight which is a bit too much for me.  Brilliant writing instrument, and as a final note, I love the enormous amount of ink this pen holds!
