uni-ball Jetstream RT Ballpoint Pens, Fine Point (0.7mm), Black, 12 Count

Black pen is very bad quality, after some days the ink is stuck and not writable at all, ink is there in the pen, but no use

These are my favourite pens. They are lovely to write with on paper, and also especially good for drawing on fabric, i.e., for drawing around patchwork templates.

SMOOTH This pen is so smooth that I had a hard time getting used to it, and was writing in cursive unintentionally. Really, I am not kidding here, sometimes I gotta hold the pen tighter just to make sure I have control over this thing. Did a lot of research to get a 'smooth' rollerball, I think I might've overdone it guys. ALSO, it's so much fun playing with the clicker. I like to click it and then play with it like it's a modded lowrider with super insane hydraulics INK QUALITY Very good, it dries very fast, maybe if you quickly rub over the ink half a second after it's placed, you may see some smudges. Other than that, the ink dries very quickly. So far, I have not experienced any (really, absolutely no) problems with the ink. Some rollerballs might skip a but of ink and you have to re-write but this one has a very good flow. I am genuinely impressed. BUILD It's pretty light plastic build and combined with it's INSANE smoothness, it can be hard to keep in control, especially if you have to write really fast (which I almost always do, so say goodbye to good control and handwriting points). I don't know if making it heavier would've made it easier to control or it's just me (I've not used rollerballs before, I am guessing it's just me haha). Personally I find the grip to be a bit over the tip, like it should be a bit lower and towards the point, as sometimes I tend to move my fingers down too much keep proper control of this pen. OVERALL Super smooth, light, incredible ink quality. Can't remember the last time a pen actually made me want to write. It's beautiful.

Value for money

Great pen, but received one instead of the advertised 12. I could of got a pack of 2 at this price.

I've been on the hunt for a smooth, smear-free ink pen (not gel). The Jetstream is the answer to my problems. This pen's ink writes so smooth, the lines are nice and bold, and best of all, no smear. I have a Pilot G2 that I absolutely love, but at work when I need to write/sign something that is important, I use this. Wish I could find one in a metal body, but that's fine. I'll see if I can put the cartridge in a different pen and make a Frankenstein pen.
