PEN IS SOLD
Vanishing Point with Richard Binder Nib -- Cursive Italic 0.9mm.
I got this pen in mid 2013, and the nib in the fall. The nib is nice but I think it's just not for me. While a cursive itallic, for me it might be a bit too crisp for the kind of quick writing I do more often. For me, the nib is a little bit particular about writing angles. This might have something to do with me being left handed or something about the way I write. See the pictures below. The nib has great line variation and can be used to produce some very good looking writing.
A vanishing point with a Binder nib costs $170. Asking $130 $120 shipped (in original box, within CONUS)

High angle - this works well for me:

Mid angle - this does not work very well for me:

Low angle - this works well for me:
