Is it possible to change out the nib to a finer nib?

You can contact Parker and they allow you to send your pen to them and they will replace it. The Parker skilled craftsmen will replace your nib and adjust it to the ideal position.

This is actually something I was contemplating myself. I believe the instruction booklet assures that all Parker nibs fit the pen, but it also implies bad posture can compromise a nib so I was going to wait until I was more acclimated to the pen before I tried a new nib. I'm curious to your results, if you go through with it.

Possibly, but I don't know. The nib that came with the pen by default was perfect for my needs, so I never thought to look.

Sorry, I can't help. I bought my pen with just the one nib; it's on the finer side rather than the broader, but not really fine.

I never tried, suggest you go to the Parker web site or visit a quality stationary

Yes you can change the nib. I changed mine to a fine nib. However, it is the full top unit that one buys, not just the nib. I got mine from an English retailer for about $15. http://www.theonlinepencompany.com/pencompany/pen_nibs.php?cat1=Parker&cat2;=Urban

It's fine resting that you asked that. I prefer a stiffer nib. The nib that came with the pen was softer than I live. I ordered replacement nibs and now it's perfect. I forgot who I ordered from but it was 3 nibs to a package and it was through Amazon

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

The short answer is "yes". Unlike the Lamy pens where you just change out the metal nib itself, what you actually change out on the vanishing point is more of an assembly or module. I regularly swap "F" and "M" modules between my two pen bodies. You can purchase a new nib module (usually with ink converter) on Amazon, generally for about $55. These very easily just slip in and out.

The original was a medium nib, but I changed it to a fine nib. I think the fine nib does a better job. The medium spread the ink and the fine point produced a finer line.

Very simple...Open as you would any regular pen by twisting the Nib which opens it and allow you to remove the converter and replace it with the ink cartridges...

I believe you should be able to change it. It looks like it was written with a black sharpie.

Yes, you can. The Parker converter is universal to almost all Parker fountain pens.

Try some hot water. warming up the pen will make it expand and let go of the nib... It may take a couple of tries be patient and be gentle.

The nib seems to be medium. I enjoy using the pen, and people who see it find it interesting.

It is a fine nib... it writes really well also. It is more like a Germany fine. The Japanese fine is definitely a thinner line. Hope this helps. Cheers

The nib on this is solid whereas the Bamboo has quite a bit of give to it which I've found to lead to messy writing.

It's a fine nib, but it's similar to an extra fine in other pens. It's about as fine or finer than a Lamy EF, but it writes very smoothly and I love the thinness of the line!

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

They come with a few different sizes. If those don't fit well, you buy smaller nibs that will fit on them.

In the Vanishing Point, the nib and cartridge are attached. You just have to buy a size fine (which is "very" fine in Japanese pens I believe), and unscrew the pen and just replace the entire mechanism. If you look it up on google you will see. Great pen!
