I know, I know, Vectors are cheaply made, they only scratch the paper and so on... Have read all that.
But I'm sentimental and I really love them laugh.gif Why can't I? cool.gif
So if you have this XF nib somewhere pls share with me.

The Vector is a great pen! Get a vector flighter if you like them smile.gif

I'm not sure they are made with XF nibs, though. I haven't even seen one in a fine before...

I have a flighter in M, black anodized alu in F, black laquer in B and gold BP smile.gif
Yes, there are XF Vectors. I have even seen topic on FPN about this. I know Peter Twydle from PenMuseum used to have these nibs for £4 each, but I emailed him last week and he said he no longer has them in stock sad.gif

Have you considered sending a Vector to a nibmeister for a regrind?
Pendemonium has a relatively fast turnaround time.No affiliation.

Nah, I really, really want a factory one for... "collecting" purposes wink.gif
Besides, that would be pure waste of money with Vectors costing like $8...
