Matt black lacquer over a tapered metal barrel, bright nickel-plated trim, and a fine stainless steel nib that writes with a crisp, controlled line straight out of the box.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOne practical detail worth knowing: unlike the rest of the Sheaffer range, the VFM takes standard international cartridges and converters rather than Sheaffer's own. That opens it up to an enormous range of inks from other makers, which makes it an unusually good pen to experiment with.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA sensible first fountain pen, and a perfectly respectable second one.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sheaffer","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52280304795946,"sku":"074040113808","price":44.95,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0067\/2081\/5151\/files\/E0940553.jpg?v=1787101360","url":"https:\/\/www.waterfrontnews.com.au\/products\/sheaffer-vfm-matt-blk-fp-f","provider":"Waterfront News","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
