This is a great bag. The pockets are particularly well thought out, and the north/south style is more comfortable to wear cross-body than my previous east/west style bag. The dividers in the pocket intended to hold cell phones, etc. is made from a soft cushy neoprene, which is a nice touch. The gray color shown on the site is true-to-life and very attractive.

The bag could be improved by the addition of sewn-in rings to which clips could be attached (e.g. for keys on lanyards). But otherwise it is pretty much ideal.

I bought a handful of weights of blue Jetstreams, Acroballs, Vicunas, and Surais, and the 0.5 Jetstream was my favorite. I'm heavy-handed so I found some of the other pens scratchy, but this one was just right. The ink doesn't smudge at all, which is great for lefties. My only complaint is that the cartridge is a little loose, so there's a slight tactile sensation when the point is placed down/up. I remedied that by wrapping a few layers of tape around the back end of the cartridge to thicken it up and keep it from wiggling around in the barrel.

I've been using this pen for three years now. It's a great pen I use every single day at work, at home, everywhere. It starts many conversations too! It's solid, light, and inexpensive.

As much as I love the pen, I never was found of the ink refills. They write smoothly but the ink is very light, hard to read in some cases. After trying several refills (the Pilot H-Tec-C, Platinum BSP-100S), I finally found the perfect one: Zebra Sharbo X.

All aforementioned refills are D1, which means that they all fit in the Zebra T3. However, the Pilot Hi-Tec-C, although they right nicely, are not a perfect fit and requires some work around. The Platinum BSP-100s perform just as bad as the Zebra refills that come with the pen. In the other hand, the Zebra Sharbo X are top notch. They right fluidly and beautifully. The ink pops a lot. It creates strong lines.

This is my favorite pen. The ink doesn't skip, it writes smoothly and neatly, and it starts writing right when you put its tip to the paper. Almost every other pen I've used (besides the Pentel R.S.V.P. pens) requires you to scribble on some scrap paper before writing in order to get the ink flowing. Not this pen!

Wow. I am thrilled with this eraser. This Seed Colorful Radar is the best of both worlds--it erasers just as good (if not better!) than my Boxy and has shavings that clump together like a Matomaru-kun eraser. While the shavings don't stick to the eraser quite as good as with a Matomaru-kun, they still clump together enough that cleaning up the shavings is still way more convenient than compared to other erasers.

The notched casing is a fantastic idea. With my old Matomaru-kun, the paper casing would dig into my eraser and really tear it up, but not with this little guy! The eraser itself also isn't super gummy-soft like the Matomaru-kun is. With my Matomaru-kun eraser, I found myself having to use extra pressure to clean away pencil strokes because the eraser was almost too soft. But the Seed eraser is soft without having any give to it, so it really does erase well with just a light touch. It also works like a -dream- on coarser papers like sketch paper and mixed media paper, which is absolutely amazing. All of my other erasers just got replaced!

Not to mention this eraser is so super cute! Another great thing I've noticed is that gray lead residue doesn't build up as badly on the eraser anywhere near as badly as I had expected it too, so the cute light green color still stays looking great even after use. I couldn't be more happy with this eraser. I highly recommend it!
