Falcon        Vanishing Point

Soar to new heights with the Namiki Falcon.  Sleek in its unique style, this jet black fountain pen is a remarkable feat of engineering and elegance.  The Namiki Falcon’s most extraordinary feature is its flexible, "hooded" 14K gold nib that gently yields to the user’s angle.  Modest pressure on the tines makes a bolder line than when a light touch is used and a thick/thin effect comes from the tip itself.  We know of no contemporary pen with a more flexible nib.  The size of this pen would be considered standard, at 5 3/8" long, capped. The diameter of the grip is comfortable for almost all hands.

All of the Namiki pens come with a converter (for bottle filling) and a blue ink cartridge in a small leather box.  This is the only cartridge/converter system, other than Sailor, that offers adequate ink flow for broader or faster writing - which happens to be perfect for drawing! See the fountain pen guide for more information on use and care of fountain pens.

The Vanishing Point retractable fountain pen is a product rich in both history and performance. Its brilliant design and ingenious technology make it a pen for the new age. Works just like the ball-point pen's you are familiar with, just click the end and the nib retracts into the body of the pen - only this one has a fountain pen for a nib! And just as with the Namiki Falcon, this pen comes with it's own converter and box and a full 3 year manufacturer's warranty! Available in black with gold accents and an 18 karat gold fine nib. (Other colors or nib sizes available for preorder upon request)  Works with the same Namiki cartridges as the Falcon. 

Note: This nib is not a flexible nib like the Falcon!

This is a custom Varsity Fountain Pen from Pilot with our logo screen printed on the side of it.  Although this pen is not refillable like our other pens, and does not have the flexible nib like the falcon, it is still a wonderful pen to work with and is an inexpensive way to test the world of fountain pens to see how you like them!  Black ink.

This Fountain Pen was designed for sketching!  They ARE flexible, but the nib is not solid gold like the Falcon, so they are a whole lot less costly!  The iridium nib provides a smooth, enduring stroke.  Stainless nibs in most fountain pens can feel scratchy, and since most are designed for writing, they don't usually allow the ink to flow enough for line work.  Comes in three sizes (Extra-Fine, Fine and Broad).  Glenn's preference is the Extra Fine, but at this price you may want all three!     Includes a suede pen wrap, an ink converter and 3 cartridges of indelible ink.
