This is the second nib I bought for the VP because the medium scree-e-e-ches. I was delighted with the Fine nib.

 

Folks, do not carry too many things in your hands PLUS open fountain pens!

Try repairing it yourself with your fingernails...It's not cost-effective to send it to a professional, as a new VP nib unit is only about $60.

PS: New VP nibs are often a bit noisy, but it goes away with a little use.

Oh, and the repair center at Pilot / Namiki is terrific.
