No bend with right amount of pressure. If you afraid to bend the nip, you can use tap to stick and pull out the nip. At that moment I didn’t have any tap near me, so I used that method to remove.

@@designook_leo I am using an fountain pen from Indian made brand called click aristocrat . It just price 4.17 USD and the nib unit if needed price 2.98 USD. I just want to roll out the nib unit insert new nib unit. Its kind of Vintage pen , I quited Parker,cross,shaeffer because of local brands in India producing exceptional pens in affordable price their are also local manufacturers like Ranga which is damn expensive and only dell to USA,EUROPE ETC.I now use Hausier Germany made in India fountain pen which is an modernised version of chineseHero pen and click fountain pens etc. I want to buy 5 piece of cLICK STUDENT fountain pen because itscheap and best in its price range 1.19USD . I am lucky that I am born in India I canhave quality fountain pens in affordable price.

I’m also in India! Which inexpensive retractable fountain pen are you referring to; I’d love to try it!

Thank you! Cheers!

Yes, agree. It look serious and it is a quick way that not require other tools. As long as you do it gently, it will be fined.

For Lamy is not a big deal to remove like that. It is totally safe as long as you do gently.

@@designook_leo Yes, sure. That's why Lamy pens come with extra supply of caps, for removing nibs. Oh.. wait... those are soft sticky strips of silicon, not hard caps. nvmd

All pilot capes are using gold nib.

@@designook_leo I'd disagree, there's VPs with "special alloy" nibs, like the one in this video. They don't have the carats mentioned on their nibs. These nibs are stiffer, and are basically stainless steel nibs with gold/colored plating. I got this information based on different websites and reddit.

I don't really agree with your info that you got. I know this Pilot VP nib don't specify the nip model or type, because it is an old version. I believe the new version nibs have more detail info. One thing I can tell you, I can feel the different between steal and gold nip. I use Lamy steal nip Vs Pilot VP gold nip and they feel totally different. Or in case there are fake nibs of Pilot VP on the market. I never heard of fake nip, only whole fake pen like Chinese version which I forget the name.

Hey, I’m a medical student; would you recommend the twist action Pilot Fermo for the same purpose? I am afraid the Vanishing Point will be too loud, and I don’t want to irritate anyone whilst doing rounds.

@@gowriwarrier2370 Well as far as I've read, fermo will require 2 hand operation, so I didn't think of buying it. I didn't find the clicking sound of the VP too irritating though honestly. I've also used the Moonman A1's and if you want you can try them out. Ensso bolt is another good option for retractable fountain pens.

Are you on team safari?

@@designook_leo the pen is nice but that triangular grip is tragic. Really a do not understand that they have not an section option. They sell very well so we, perhaps, will never see it happening.

I see you have a point of view for that. I believe they keep doing it because not so many people complain about that. Honestly, I don't have any problem with the Lamy grip too. In case you want other style of grip, you have to use other model or other brand.

@@designook_leo , surelly. 2000 is a good option. Safaris ok pens, just that grip that is tragic, the pen itself is very well tuned.

2000 is a flagship product, so can’t compare to starter version. :)

True

Totally agree. I enjoy using it for long writing.

Thank you for the tip. It didn’t bend as i didn’t put strong pressure on it.

I share inspiration of design on everything that I found. :)

Thank you for your suggestion. Does it write smoothly with EF nib? I’m consider to have F nib for smoother.

I believe in simplify. Make everything as simple as possible.

Every pen is reference. You can choose whatever you like in each tier base on your requirement.

Do you plan to get a Pelikan? What model and nib type will you choose?

@@designook_leo I probably won’t get a Pelican because the size I like is too pricey.

Beside M200 version, the price really pricey for Pelikan. But I heard Pelikan steal nip also good.

Hey, I’m a medical student; would you recommend the twist action Pilot Fermo for the same purpose? I am afraid the Vanishing Point will be too loud, and I don’t want to irritate anyone whilst doing rounds.

@@gowriwarrier2370 yes I have a Pilot Fermo and is equally useful. The Vanishing Point is quicker but the Fermo works well. No cap to contend with. I have never had anyone complain about the click sound of the Vanishing Point.

Great

I don’t use case cover. For pilot, I put it back to the box after use.

@@designook_leo No, I mean, the purpose or situational use of each one.

I also stated in the video. Lamy: Everyday use such as Sketching, drawing or some writing Pilot VP: Long form writing is great Pelikan M200: I will use it for special even such as book signation Am I answer your question?

@@designook_leo Yeah, totally! Thank you for the insightful answer, keep making these amazing videos!

Thank you for your kind words. I will do my best to share what are useful and helpful.

What price do you want to know?

Agree

Yes, I change to thocky switch Akko lavender and it sound with a deep base. I will release the new video soon.

​@designook_leo it is on backwards is what was implied i believe
