This is a great tiny pen. It fits into my jeans pocket like a dream, and starts and writes well every time. The cap snaps on firmly, with an audible click and I do not worry about it coming off in my pocket.

There are two issues with this pen that I am not totally satisfied with. One is that the section seems to like to come unscrewed from the barrel while it is in my pocket. It has never come completely out, but i have found it to be loose on occasion. The 2nd is that it seems like when you snap on the cap a bit of ink sprays out into the cap and on the nib from the concussion of the cap snap. The nib simply does not stay clean.

All in all, these two problems do not cause me to stop carrying the pen, it is my go to pen for everyday carry.

My friend purchased me this adorable little pen and I absolutely love it! The small size is ideal for on the go and I can practically fit it anywhere. Also, the minimalistic design makes it a very nice low profile pen, for someone that wants to avoid carrying their nicer flashier pens, making this pen perfect for traveling.
The nib is very smooth and writes very well.

This pen is perfect for anyone looking for a small, low-profile pen that they can carry with them all the time. Just grab this pen and a couple cartridges and you're set!

I love this. I bought it 5 years ago. It still works fine now. I always bring it with me. It is strong enough so that I can put it in the pocket of jeans with me.

I have just received and tested my pen. From cap to barrel and nib, this pen deserves some attention. Being a "mini" one, it is smaller than average ones and to me, it´s a good feature - a matter of personal taste, nothing more.
It´s made of aluminium, is extremely light and despite not having any adornment, looks good and fits discretely in any pocket.
Mine came with a cartridge of black ink, and this specimen wrote a nice flow of wet line, so smoothly on plain paper, turning cursive writing a breeze. The nib is another thing to pay attention to: good looking, well polished, shiny metal.
The cap fits with a "click" at the writing end and at the back end, slips smoothly.
Even the package is worthy of note: seems to be made of recycled cardboard, denoting a commitment to a safe environment. Nice attitude.
All in all, I think this pen is a good one and fulfills its promise. If you do like small pens, try this one.
I know that personal tastes do exist and trying to satisfying everyone is an almost impossible task, but to me, it seems to be perfect for a day-to-day writing, even to go to school and write down your annotations.
My next step will be to test it with Noodler´s Eel series. The writing experience must be even better. Good writing!

I have a thing for small pens that perform well and love this little pen. I did not buy it from here but should have since they have the fine nib, which must be great and toward XF, since my medium writes reasonably fine. Such a cutie, yet also sort of vintage looking due to the lettering on it, the NY address, and the removable clip. It takes a regular short cartridge, which you can refill from a bottle if you have a syringe (now legal to buy in most places, I think; saves on plastic waste if you refill).

The clip works well to clip the pen to a lapel, and the short size of the body won't poke you. Makes a great pocket pen too, as many here have said. I have seen these for sale for up to $50 in stores, so the price here is a decent one.

This pen was even reviewed in Pen World magazine years ago, and they usually only review fancy expensive pens. So others have been charmed by its cuteness and high function as well.
