Is the pen nib retractable?

No the pen has a cap over the pen part. The point you see is a glass breaker. I have 3 of these pens. Only problem is the fire rod comes out when you try to start a fire.

The pen nib is not retractable. The pens cap is threaded and can be screwed in on both ends when the cap is either opened or closed.

No. You unscrew the blunt tip that covers the pen portion, to access the pen tip.

No, it comes apart in 3 different pieces which exposes the fire starter and flint.

I've never had that experience but I have felt the nib was a bit large. You can get replacement nibs that are fairly inexpensive and try a new nib.

Got a better answer. It can change nibs and comes with 1. Friend send me an extra 1 from his collection.

I'm honestly not sure. I know they offer a nib exchange but I don't know if you can change the nib yourself or if you have to send the pen in. You should check with Parker Customer Service directly (800) 237-8736

It does not retract. I've got three of these for each jacket I wear so I don't worry about forgetting to take a pencil. So far no problems with the tip...

It's easy, it just pops right in thin-end first. If you're having trouble removing the existing one, there's a little tool. it's on the bottom of the 'pen stand' that came with the tablet I bought, it might be somewhere similar for yours (if it's monoprice compatible it must be similar). You just poke the tip in and pull back and it leaves the old nib behind. Or you can just pull it out gently with your teeth or tweezers. There's no wrong way, it's not held in by a catch or anything, it just plugs and unplugs.

The cap "clicks" on to cover the writing nib, but slides on securely with no "click" when stored on the other end during writing. It's not going to fall off if that's the concern.

Yes. It is very easy to change the nibs. I changed mine over to an italic nib. This website has a video on how easy it is: http://www.gouletpens.com/ Hope that helps Hope that helps

yes! absolutely without question. The new design and ease of use with the new pen is extraordinary. I replaced my old Bamboo and am gad I did. You will love it!

Yes it is retractable. Instead of a small stem on the top the 1/2 of the upper part of the pen clicks the ball point in and out.I have had a lot of pens in my day and the cartridge on fisher is the best, write on copy paper that is dried out in cold weather and upside down.Inexpensive pen and performs even in outer space.

Should be not, if you are using an ink cartridge, it can write instantly. If you are using some refills, probably you could try swing the pen smoothly to make the ink to coming to the nib.

No, it's not. The size specifications are a little different due to the S Pen.

Hmmm... interesting question! It looks to me as though it isn't intended to be removed. I haven't attempted to remove it. I think it is just part of the pen. That's my opinion on the matter.

Yes. Nib size does not matter. However it won't work with non-Lamy pens. (I've already tried it.)

Yes it is. You just twist the back half of the pen. That also pulls the stylus out when twisted the opposite way.

You may have received a faulty pen. If you are referring to the internal threading it should be even. My pen retracts fine. Your pen should also have a rubber O-ring to keep the pen from moving and keeping tension to open and close the pen.

Yes, or rather, it's an ambi pen; there are finger rests on both sides so the grip is the same. The nib writes smoothly from various angles and the ink flow is consistent. It will write well in the left hand. (enjoy)
