Pilot Vanishing Point Explained: All About Pilot's Capless Retractable Fountain Pen!

Pilot Vanishing Point Fountain Pens are one of our most commonly asked about fountain pens in store! They are known to be the world's first capless fountain pen and many love the elegant design and novelty of a retractable fountain pen. In this video, I explain the history behind the Capless, give a close up of a Vanishing Point and its special features, take a look at all the different models available of the Pilot Vanishing Point and show how to fill a Vanishing Point with ink using the included CON-40 converter. In a future video, I will be doing a nib and line comparison across the 6 available nib sizes for Pilot VP: EF, F, FM (available in Japan only), M, B, and Stub. Thank you for watching!
