Very useful for trying out inks. Also fantastic for drawing when you want to switch colors quickly. Very comfortable to hold and write/draw with. Extremely easy to clean as well. Economical and functional.

My Favorite Pen

Many years ago, I was given one of these pens. It became my favorite pen. Unfortunately, I lost it somewhere several years ago and have missed it since. Recently, my wife bought a replacement, but I needed the fine point nib. Goulet Pen Co. delivered just what I ordered. Shipping was quick and safe.

Love it!

Love this nib for my pilot décimo. It writes beautiful and works in my standard size pilot retractable pen as well as my décimo. Beautiful gold color to it and writes so smooth.

Pilot VP Nib Unit - Medium size nib, for use in Pilot Fermo

Kudos to Goulet for efficient fulfillment, even late in the holiday season. Package arrived very well packaged.
The nib itself was slightly scratchy and needed some careful micromesh adjustments. Otherwise, an excellent nib.
Goulet is my most trusted vendor.

Appreciated the extra care taken in packing my new pilot vanishing point nib. The measures taken to protect it is only ONE of the reasons I frequent Goulet for my items. BLESS you ALL for your ALOHA spirits in everything you do.

Nice for an everyday carry

I bought the VP with a 1.1 stub which a really like but found it a little broad and wet for making quick notes throughout the day. This fine point is just right. My problem now is that it is a chore to switch back and forth between the two nibs. I wish I had just purchased an additional Vanishing Point.

Excellent Nib!

I bought the Pilot Vanishing Medium Nib and it really is excellent. It glides across the page and keep up perfectly with my tendency to write fast. I am very pleased and highly recommend!

Review

Didn't take that long to arrive. Packaged appropriately so the item wouldn't get damaged. Overall satisfied. This isn't my first time ordering from Goulet, and they never have failed me. I think it's my third or fourth time ordering from them. I plan to be long-time customer for all my fountain pen needs. Their YouTube channel is awesome and super informative as well.

Great find and superb packaging

It was wrapped in a plastic sleeve and then put inside a test tube-like container which protected the nib really well. The nib worked really well right out of the box - smooth and no skips. The fine nib is really more my jam than the medium nib I got originally with the pen. Thanks for offering this!

Vanishing Point Fine Nib

The nib leaked from its body down on the nib and out the bottom when it was clicked open. Don't know why Pilot QC did not catch that. I notified Goulet Pen via email asking for an exchange. They immediately sent a postage paid return authorization and have a replacement NIB in the mail. Disappointed with NIB, but could not be happier with service from Goulet Pen.

Pilot Vanishing Point Nib Unit

I tried Goulet because when I first became interested in fountain pens, I learned much by watching Brien Goulet on YouTube. The Nib Unit is great, and I even know how to use it! Thanks, Brian. And thanks, Jamila, for the great wrapping job. I'll be back.Dave Wilson

Almost as good as original

This was an upgrade replacement (to a gold nib). But the included converter does not fill with ink (even after reviewing Goulet tutorial) to the same capacity as the original nib-converter that came with the Vanishing Point pen.

Vanishing Nib

Worked perfectly. Prior nib wasn't operating and several flushes didn't help. So ordered this nib as the price wasn't much different than sending out older one for service. New one is slightly different in style. Fit perfectly, works like a champ. Delivery was fast.

Perfect replacement nib

I dropped my VP and damaged the nib. This replacement medium Pilot Vanishing Point Nib-Gold fit perfectly in my Pilot BP Fermo and writes beautifully smoothly and evenly.

Good upgrade

I'm glad I got it, it replaced what was suppposed to be a gold nib but ended up being a complete disappointment.So far it writes just like a gold nib is supposed to write and that gold nib gives it a bit of elegance.

Butter can be messy

I absolutely love the buttery smooth Medium nib!! I bought this medium because I have a Pilot Custom 74 with a Fine nib, that is just a bit too scratchy and dry for my taste. This medium solves the scratchy, dry problem. But it also puts more ink on the cheap paper I have to use at work, so it straddles the line for feathering and bleedthrough on cheaper paper. Having said that, I don't regret the purchase at all and will relish every stroke of this dreamy writer.

Vanishing Point Nib -- Excellent -- these nibs are very frail

I love the Pilot Vanishing Point (Fountain) Pens. I have several. I find that the nibs are frail -- and are easy to damage (ruin.)Maybe I expect too much. These replacement nibs are superb. I do know why I ruin the nibs so often.

Added a new nib

I love using my Pilot Vanishing Point, but I also wanted something finer than the medium nib I bought it with. The replacement is great. It sounds expensive until one realizes that you are getting what amounts to a whole pen without the case. Recommended to people who want to revamp an existing pen.

Truly unique and functional too!

I have been entranced by my Pilot vanishing point, since it is such an odd ball and yet so darn good! I went back and forth about the nib that it came with, which was a medium and smooth as silk in summer. However, it just needed to be slightly finer to suit all my normal writing applications, and I was afraid I would buy a fine and find it was not such a find. Goulet would take it back if I didn't like it, so I bought a gold fine nib anyway, and it is like the first year of a new sports car! Anyone want to buy a slightly used medium? Thank you Goulet. you came through again!

Excellent Nib

I had purchased the Pilot Vanishing Point with a Medium nib thinking that it would write smoother. I found that the Medium was a little wider than I like, so I thought I would try the fine nib unit. I am glad I did! The fine is very smooth and is just the line width I wanted!
