New #FountainPen day! I had been very interested in the Platinum Curidas, but afraid the grip wouldn’t work for me. I took a chance and so far so good.
Have you tried any other retractable fountain pens?

@curtisafree I lost a Pilot Vanishing point long ago. I remembered the grip being annoying and never replaced it.
I don’t know if you’re asking me to compare them, but I will try anyway 😅.
My memory of the VP is that the grip with the clip going through it really annoyed me.
The Curidas has a nub on the side opposite the clip that gets in the way, but isn’t as annoying to me.
Keep in mind I’m a lefty and my grip is different than most.
Thanks! I was just curious. 😁
I have both a traditional Vanishing Point and a décimo; they work well for me, but I can definitely see why the clip is polarizing!
