My Favorite Pen Ever
HERE'S THE QUICK VERSION: This pen is great. If you're looking for a quality writing device that is durable, dependable, unique, and eye-catching, then look no further. Pick your color/finish and enjoy this tenacious little thing to your heart's content. If you have to buy another one, it will be because you're so in love with it, not because your first one failed to please. HERE'S THE LONG VERSION: I've been a bit of a pen junkie all my life, and have come across various pens that I have both loved and hated. But this pen right here - I friggin love this pen. The rainbow titanium nitride really caught my eye, being both beautiful and distinctive (but if that doesn't float your boat, it comes in a dozen other colors and finishes). It really suits me, and everyone at work knows that that is MY PEN, so I never have to worry about someone slinking off with it "accidentally" and getting away scott-free. As a pen, this thing is wonderful. It's the Jack Russell Terrier of pens: It's small and compact, able to fit in a pocket/wallet/purse with ease and comfort. Yet it's sturdy and tenacious with a quality feel to it, thanks to the brass and steel construction. This pen has survived and excelled at every challenge I have thrown at it, and shows zero signs of wear and tear. It writes the first time, every time. The ink flow is consistent and controlled. I've never had this pen blot, bleed, or fail to give me a quality, consistent ink flow on the page. The black ink appears rich and dark of hue on the page (for a ball point type, don't expect a dark bold line like a gel pen), but doesn't bleed through on even the thinnest of notebook paper. Need to right upside down, catty-corner, or with the paper pressed against the wall or someone's back? No problem. This pen can handle it. I was worried that, since this pen is on the petite side (but with the cap on the end for writing, it's got the comfortable length of a full length writing utensil. Cool!), I would run out of ink pretty quick. Both my job and personal hobbies requires me to do A LOT of handwriting, and I was afraid I'd be going through pen refills like Joan Rivers goes through plastic surgeons. Well, that hasn't been a problem yet! I've had this pen for a solid month and I have yet to order a refill or get an inkling that I need to. The refills, as it seems, are on the affordable side too. The only complaint I would have about this pen: It's so small and handy that you might just take it everywhere and accidentally leave it sitting between the keys on a keyboard or on a desk somewhere. I know I use this pen enough that that has been an issue once or twice, but so far I've always been able to rush back for it before it caught someone's eye, haha. Read more
