For those who still have..., November 24, 2010
For those who still have ink flow issues, this is a HUGE TIP that will make u
fall in love with this pen. the pen has an ink holding sponge inside. Uncap the
end and pull it out without damaging it with a tweaser and dip it in a sepia ink
bottle and squeeze it carefully to soak up the ink, then drop it back in the pen
and cap the end again. The flw will go amazingly smooth. Repeat when the issue
occurs ...

i bought this pen looking..., March 29, 2011
i bought this pen looking for a good sepia tone to draw with. i love copic
products and fountain pens (my Lamy is my fp of choice). This pen would not
write for anything. I even had a friend try it and he couldnt get it to do
anything... Very scratchy, dried up, not worth $1, let alone $5... but JetPens
took my return and credited my account. They also agreed that i got a defective
pen, still, i wouldnt try this one again... Might try a wider black next time.

I've got one of these..., December 7, 2010
I've got one of these pens and one in black. For some reason my Sepia pen is
terrible. I can never get a good flow of ink and its sometimes scratchy no
matter how i hold it. My black Copic pen works perfect...but I think I got a dud
sepia pen....

I like this pen alright...., November 28, 2009
I like this pen alright. I do not draw manga, but figured it might not be a bad
choice for just a disposable fountain pen. The color is good, though, at least
for me, I have to hold it at a steeper angle than natural to get a solid flow.
You have to have it at at least a 45 degree angle for it to have a good smooth
flow. If that is your style (and maybe that's just the angle that most draw
with), it might not be a bad pen for you. It is scratchy, but I personally don't
mind that a lot when I am writing.

It's not my favorite..., July 5, 2012
It's not my favorite low-priced fountain pen, but it's pretty good for
sketching. The nib is sturdy yet quite stiff. It writes/draws a bit scratchy
(which can be good for sketchie drawings). It's a very fine line and I usually
like the extra-fine nibs, however this one seems "sharp".
The sepia ink is a bit lighter than I'd have liked.
Over all, for the price it's a "must-try"!!
