This is an edit of my previous 4 star review.
After doing a bit of research and testing other VP products, the converter is
indeed supposed to leave a bit of air, and is working correctly.
I have been using this as my primary writting insturment for months and love it
more every day. The quality is impecable.
The only issue I've had was some minor (I mean just a few drops) leaking when I
flew on 4 different airplanes with a full converter. I would expect this from
such frequent changes in pressure, and now just put it in a plastic bag with a
tissue around the nib end or empty the converter before a flight.

This was a birthday gift from my mom. It is a beautiful pen. It writes smoothly
and is well balanced. The point is very fine. I would estimate that is is around
a 0.4
I took off a star because the converter is not air tight so it only fills
partially with well ink; and putting on the cartridges takes a bit of muscle.
I anticipate this being my go to pen for years to come because of the one-handed
operation and the quality.
