Vector Mettalix Fountain Pen (Black) with Quink(Blue) Ink Bottle Jotter Stainless Steel GT Ball Pen

Parker is Parker. This is my 3rd Fountain pen in the league of Parker brand. And I am always happy. Not complaints or no regrets. Comfort of this Parker fountain pen is good and also writing quality is smooth as ever. Grip is ok ok. You have to be habitual to it. Ink flow is remarkable without any leakage and all. If you want to gift this a good Gift Value fountain pen truly impressive. I use it often for my thesis writing as it is comfort to use and writing quality is amazing with Parker Quink.

It's a good pen with almost no problem but writes a little rough.also try using other inks if your pen has problems since the writing also depends on the ink flow.

Update: IMPORTANT: If you ever feel that your new pen is writing rough, or it feels rough with whatever ink you try, don't worry it is not your problem, it is some kind of manufacturing defect. I have bought 3 pens from Parker Vector Series, out of them 2 had problem, one this and another from mettalix series. I simply emailed Luxor and explained them my situation and they simply sent me new nib FREE OF COST, both the time. And they write buttery smooth, OMG <3 Thanks to Parker/Luxor for their amazing customer service. Overall good. I like these pens (I have 3 now) because they are one, fountain pens; second, they are lightweight and slim, and third, they never leaked or did anything stupid, haha. Writing quality is directly related to the quality of ink. I use Parker Quink, so it writes smoothly. I once received a Parker Pen with an issue with the nib, it was rough no matter what. I wrote to Luxor India, and they sent me a new nib with a full cartridge and all free of cost. But they were extremely late in responding. The pen looks beautiful ( less beautiful than the complete stainless steel edition), but it is good. Gives you eco-friendly vibes... I would suggest that everyone should go for complete steel editions of these pens.

Very good , smooth, swift and luxurious instant drying , good grip and durability,good looks,very good gift but small in size. Excellent pen

best writting experience with ink quality

Complete review Pens and inks under Considerration - 1. Parker Vector Metallix (F) with Parker Quink Black 2. Parker frontier Matte Gold Trim (F) with Lapis Bard Irish Joe 3. Pilot Metropolitan (F) with Waterman Red 4. Pilot Metropolitan (F) with Parker Quink Blue 5. Lamy Safari (M) with Pelikan 4001 Violet 6. Lamy safari (M) with Lamy T52 Turquoise 7. Lamy 2000 (F) with Lamy T53 Crystal Amazonite Out of all of the above mentioned pens "Pilot Metropolitan" truely justifies the price, consistent writer whether you choose one pen over other both fine nibs have same width. Looks a classical masterpiece i have no problem with weight of pen or grip (normal 6 feet tall man),.. Only bad part is convertor is old style, you need to buy CON 40 converter for another 600 INR LAMY SAFARI seems overvalued, should be around 2000 INR, both pens feel different but very very smooth can be used whole day for writing compared to pilot metropolitan, though both nibs are MEDIUM but feel slightly different. (not the case with pilot) Parker vector Metallix I would say go ONLY if you have not much of money or just want to start with fountain pens, writing with this is good, pen is very short so not so comfortable (FINE) is comparable to pilot , BUT BUT,..... NONE of the OTHER pens dry, but I had weird experience with Parker Metallix that it gets dry ink if not used for a week, LAMY and Pilot on other hand can be used without headache after a month (Although I know it will be futile to do comparison of pen which is hardly 5 times cheaper with set of expensive ones) but I SAY SKIP Parker Frontier is also FINE, writes good but definitely not on the finer side, better to go for this than Vector Lamy 2000 fountain pen is true gem of fountain pens cannot be compared with the others (and should not be 😂) it's expensive with price of INR 25000, but go only if you love writing,. I do write alot so for me its ok. But first make a habbit of admiring the cheap ones. --------- NOW coming to Inks Parker Quink is truely what justifies the price - depth of color is awesome for INR 100, writes good,. Consistent and dries quickly Best ink you can buy is "Pilot Iroshizuku" and Lamy T53 Crystal collection I have both but could not show sample of Iroshizuku,.. Both costs INR 1500 so not on affordable side,. But fantastic inks Pelikan 4001 is one of the affordable and yet beautiful inks (use with medium nib) to feel the color shading effects.... You can go for it!! Waterman Ink goes with its name, it's watery (Not Bad) but takes time to dry out,.. But rich in color little costly but comparable to Pelikan, makes Pelikan better ink. Lapis Bard Irish Joe is good but expensive, ink dries in between Pelikan and Waterman,.. LOOKS ugly till wet but it's looks jaw dropping BEAUTIFUL once dries, lots of highlights and definitely worth the price. Lamy Ink T52, Ah! Again as Lamy pens it's expensive better to skip this and jump directly towards Pilot Iroshizuku ink Lamy crystal ink i use only with Lamy 2000, ink is good but very expensive than Pilot Iroshizuku, thus making Pilot ink a better choice anyday. Now coming to which Nib Size to choose If you write small really small then go for fine nibs, so Pilot Fine is go to pen if money is not a constraint. Medium Nibs on other sides highlights the shades of inks, much smooth and makes fountain pen a true gem of engineering., I would say if not sure GO with MEDIUM, it's definitely make you into fountain pens. It does not matter how expensive or how cheap pen or ink or watch you use., just you should love it,.. Cultivate a habbit of writing its worth of.

Terrible terrible pen. DOES NOT glide smoothly on pages requires a lot of pressure ink is very very very light in colour the set comes with blue ink the black is just body color of pen. Cheaper pens like camlin fountain work much better than this

It is good and in the black box it looks amazing
