Parker Vector Mettalix Fountain Pen (Blue) with Quink Ink Bottle Classic Stainless Steel GT Ball Pen

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 <3Thanks 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.

For experienced fountain pen users. Built quality and fit and finish is good.

As usual parker pen is one of the pens. Quality is too good. Light in weight. Writes fluently. Good for kids to who want to improve their handwriting.

Excellent pen. I like parker pens. This one also joins with themProven quality of pen and its inks for centuries

It's a very good fountain pen for school and office.It's very smooth.

Complete reviewPens and inks under Considerration -1. Parker Vector Metallix (F) with Parker Quink Black2. Parker frontier Matte Gold Trim (F) with Lapis Bard Irish Joe3. Pilot Metropolitan (F) with Waterman Red4. Pilot Metropolitan (F) with Parker Quink Blue5. Lamy Safari (M) with Pelikan 4001 Violet6. Lamy safari (M) with Lamy T52 Turquoise7. Lamy 2000 (F) with Lamy T53 Crystal AmazoniteOut 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 INRLAMY 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 SKIPParker Frontier is also FINE, writes good but definitely not on the finer side, better to go for this than VectorLamy 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 InksParker Quink is truely what justifies the price - depth of color is awesome for INR 100, writes good,. Consistent and dries quicklyBest 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 inksPelikan 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 inkLamy 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 chooseIf 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.

It's writing quality is a bit bad but it's value for money,its thickness is good and it's easy to refill this,i would recommend you buy this

Very smooth..
