For its price, this is a great pen. I love the control I have with the tip and,
though it has worn down a bit for me, I am pretty hard on it and it's kept up
pretty well. Ink dries quickly, which is great for me because I go over and
around my work a lot. I carry it every day! while I do like this pen a lot, I
will probably try to find a pen with a felt tip that is a bit more sturdy, and
hopefully refillable. I don't like disposables )':
Note on "disposable" pens: An experiment I did with a pilot brush pen: if you
don't care as much about the exact ink color or particular properties of the ink
you're using, try this. Boil water and dip the body of the pen in the water, tip
facing up. Let it sit for a few seconds to heat the pen. Then submerge the tip
into ink (I recommend separating the ink from the bottle so you don't mix
inks!). As the body of the pen cools, it draws the ink into the body of the pen
through the tip. It doesn't completely refill it, but it does work. I used it
with a purple and had minimal color change, but this trick probably will not
work if you plan on using it for multiple ink colors. Still a cool discovery,
though.
