Personally, I'm a huge fan of the slip and seal feature to prevent (or to slow down) the drying out of the nib and feed.

I didn't even know fountain pens could be double sided, very cool video!

I have the preppy and can confirm, it doesn't dry out easily! Also wow I'm glad you shared demos of the retractable FPs in action - I realise I'll hate having the clip in the way!

As an avid VP user, it's not as bad as you would think. If you can use a lamy safari with no issue, the vps clip won't bother at all

As someone who dailies a Pilot Vanishing Point, I can say that the clip being where it is actually makes the pen super comfortable to use. At least on the Vanishing Point, the clip acts a perfect thumb rest when it's being held in the correct orientation - which also means you don't have to even look at which way the nib is facing before trying to write. As long as your thumb is resting against the clip, you can feel that you're holding it with the nib facing the right way. (The ability to know you've got the nib facing the right way without ever looking may even be one of the best features about the Vanishing Point actually 🤔)

I have the Penbbs 469 I bought from you! It's a fun pen. I have a custom double ended fountain pen from Newton Pens as well and I know Edison Pen makes a double ended pen. I love double ended pens a lot. Two different nibs, two different inks :D

The Vanishing Point is my Grail Pen! I want it so much, but it's just so expensive

I have two of them, the vanishing point and platinum 3776, the vp is really smooth writing, love the design so much

That TI ultra. That’s a new one to me and that’s what I call igneous engineering!!!!❤

Love them all! Have several Pilot vanishing points

I used one in my school🎒📚 days. Just keep on writing✍️✍️✍️✍️. Thanks for reminding. Bring back old memories.

The retractable fountain pen is just great. I own three. The original model was plastic but the plastic cracked under pressure so the pen was re-engineered and made of metal. The pen does not leak and writes like a dream. The converter sometimes sticks so seriously that it cannot be extricated from the pen without risking damage to the converter itself. I use cartridges but have to re-order them periodically. This is not as bad as it sounds since they are reasonably priced, so far. Another problem is that the nibs will get bent if the pen is dropped. A replacement nib is not cheap. For a smooth line, convenient operation, and storage with the nib up, so drying is even less of a risk than usual, the vanishing point fountain pen is truly one of the best ideas to emerge in pen manufacture in decades.

I had an original VP and I used it almost daily for four years until the plastic just shattered. The replacement has held up well.

LOVE my PenBBS 469 Double Nib!!!!

Love them all!

My penBBS 469 is currently my fav, and I just realized the reason the F nib is so MUCH smoother and even thicker than the M nib is because it's actually a fude nib! Oh jetpen pls import more penbbs product Please! Especially the exchangeable nibs

I like having a lot of fountain pens and so I'm bound to forget to use some of em, leading to inks drying up in the pen... which is why I love 3776 and I own five of them looool

Such a fun video!

Thanks for showing the Pilot Vanishing Point's little trap door! I have been wondering why those retractable nibs don't dry out.

So many variations possible !!!

I love fountain pens :) ❤❤❤

Brilliant video my friend, I use parker vector xl

Soooo excited

Another great video.

The double sided fountain pen, omg, I just put in my order 3 days ago. 😭 Maybe next year if it's still available.

The retractable fountain pens are so cool...

I like how some of these r expensive but their good like it's tempting u

No words for those pen

The amazing fountain pen, the pinnacle of all writing instruments- keep overengineering them. God bless overengineers.

Ti ultra seems wonderful

What is the clock that is in the background when the 3776 is presented?

4:16 should be 2 metal tabs. I would know, it's my favorite pen.

The doubke-sided fountain pen is a discovery and a new dream. I write with fountain pens for all (exceptions when the fountain pen can't write on surface) And I color-code my planner, so I need at lest 2 fountain pens in my backpack. With this one .....

I love using fountain pens

So… vanishing point or decimo? My hands aren’t that big, but my fingers are long and for lightweight plastic pens I like them thick and round but I’m worried the VP might be too heavy for long writing sessions?

I did not know I needed a double sided pen until today. Except I'd want a fine and an italic/stub nib - is there a way to swap out the medium nib it comes with?

@@archangeli Hi there! We're sorry about that, our KZread glitched and it replied to the wrong comment. When it comes to flying with fountain pens, you should either fill the pen entirely or empty it, though if you keep the nib upright the entire time leaking should not be a huge concern. The only time a problem may occur is if there's a moderate amount of air in the ink chamber, as the air will expand due to pressure changes and push ink into the cap.

Several fountain pens with 'vacuum' action have a seal closes off the ink chamber, including, I believe the TWSBI

Try the unigear pencil case

They're really cool. I have the PenBBS 456 that is like the Vac700R. The seal is really cool. I had the Lamy 2000 but the nib wrote too broad for my taste. My seamless pen is the ēnsso Piuma Titanium.

@@LaLa_ArtGal Hi, not the person you're replying to, but I have two Preppys so far. I've only had them for... maybe two months? And these are some of my first fountain pens as well, so please keep that in mind. I have a blue Medium nib (0.5) that I've been using with the blue-black cartridge that comes with it. It works well on cheap paper and doesn't bleed though to the other side, also not much ghosting either. The M nib might be a bit big if you have tiny handwriting, or have to fill in teeny-tiny boxes on forms. As I'm using the cartridge, it took maybe a minute to have the ink saturate the feed, so if you get it right out of the box and pop the cartridge in, go make a cup of tea/ coffee/ cocoa and it will be ready to go when you're back. I haven't had any problems with it drying out, or hard starting even after storing it nib up for about two weeks. I also have one of the Preppy Wa limited editions (the black with gold flowers in hexagons) that one has a Fine (0.3) nib and is using the black cartridge in it. I like the Fine nib a little better since I write on the smaller side/ have terrible hand writing. With the M I have to remember to leave a bit more room on top loops so my "e" doesn't look like a "c" and such. My main concern is that the plastic body can crack if you over-tighten it, but it hasn't been too much of an issue yet for me when it happened to my M nib pen. To sum up the novel I just wrote you: Preppys are a great place to start with fountain pens. Inexpensive. easy to use. And if you hate them, easy to give away to someone who might want to try a fountain pen.

469, for 6 and 9.... they really were not hiding any intentions there. I need that pen...

twice the pen, double the fall

I wonder why you guys never featured Jinhao in one of your videos bcs Jinhao right now is gaining popularity in the gountain pen community. Is it because they copy other brands design? Just asking

Fountain Pen and Roller ball? No thanks. I might be interested if both ends were a fountain pen with shut-off to prevent ink leakage, and a fine rigid nibs, so loading two different colors of ink was an option; black and red, green, blue, or some other color for your signature, for example. As it is, I'll just carry two or more regular pens with different inks. Less hassel that way.

Yes, they're over-engineered because they don't bring anything to the table. Get me a fountain pen that isn't messy when it gets jostled, dropped, or shaken and we can talk.

the whole idea of a pen is just a overly engineered pencil that works 75% of the time. thats why engineers use pencils.
