Pilot or Namiki Vanishing Point, what is the body made of?
I'm trying to determine what the Pilot Vanishing Point, the all-metal
bodied pens in Rhodium or Gold detailings on a Carbonesque or solid color pen, are made of. I can't see the details made of true Rhodium or Gold. Both metals retail for about $30 a gram. The Vanishing point body seems to be made of either stainless steel or aluminum. Anyone know? |

I received this information from Pilot, and should be good for the usenet
to have: "The Pilot Vanishing Point Fountain Pen has a brass base and is coated with enamel and lacquer. The clips are Rhodium or Gold plated. We hope this information is helpful to you.
