Parker Vector Fountain Pen, Stainless Steel with Chrome Trim, Medium Nib, Blue Ink, Hangtab Blister Pack

The Parker Vector fountain pen 1870805 is a stainless-steel-bodied fountain pen with chrome trim and a medium nib, writing in blue — an affordable, durable way into fountain-pen writing for students, everyday note-taking or people who want a classic Parker pen at a modest price.

Note that the feed title describes it as «blue»: that is the ink colour. The pen itself is stainless steel with chrome trim (CT). It is supplied on a hangtab blister card rather than in a gift box and is made in France.

• 1 × Parker Vector fountain pen, stainless steel body, chrome trim, medium nib
• Blue ink as listed by Parker for this article — the exact cartridge supply in the pack is not published, ask us if you need to know before ordering
• Hangtab blister pack — no gift box

• A fountain pen writes with very little pressure, which many people find less tiring than a ballpoint for long notes.
• The medium nib gives a clear, readable line suitable for everyday handwriting.
• The stainless steel body is more resistant to knocks and wear than plastic pens.
• Capped design: the cap protects the nib and keeps the ink from drying when not in use.
• Made in France, according to Parker’s product data.

• It is not a ballpoint or rollerball — fountain-pen ink can feather or bleed through on very thin or low-quality paper.
• It is not a fine nib; if you write very small or need thin lines for forms, a medium nib may be too broad.
• It is not a gift-box edition — it comes on a blister card.
• It is not a click pen — the cap must be removed and replaced, so it is less suited to quick one-handed notes.
