TWSBI Vac 700R - Kyanite
TWSBI Vac 700R - Kyanite - Extra Fine is backordered and will ship as soon as it is back in stock.
The TWSBI Vac 700R in Kyanite has an excellent quality look and feel from the Taiwanese manufacturer that takes customer feedback and prototype testing seriously. Quite a large pen, which can be written with posted or unposted without effecting the balance, in our opinion. It is a similar weight and size to the Pelikan M800.
The Vac 700R is the updated version of the original Vac 700. The pen now has 1 valve in place of the 2 in the smaller model, this is combined with a larger ink feed. The blind cap at the end of the barrel will still need to be open to ensure a consistent ink flow during extended writing. Unfortunately nibs from the original 700 model are not interchangeable with the new version.
With a diamond faceted pattern on cap and filler knob, smooth tapered barrel shape with polished steel trim, the pocket clip has a matte, sandblasted appearance. It measures 14.6cm in length capped or 17.3cm posted. As with other TWSBIs, the Vac 700R comes with a small spanner and pot of silicone grease. It is not necessary to disassemble the pen when new or often, but these tools give you the choice of carrying out maintenance.
TWSBI’s roots can be traced back to 1969, with the establishment of Ta Shin Precision in Taiwan. Having spent 50 years as an OEM manufacturer for numerous global companies, in 2009, they decided to launch their own brand of fountain pen – TWSBI. Ever since, their products have gained immeasurable popularity, thanks to their blend of scientific precision with modern flair. Their various ranges always prove a hit with customers, with the brand regularly seeking feedback from users prior to developing their next release.
