Pentel EnerGel Needle-Point Liquid Ink Pen - 0.5 mm - Violet Purple

This is a love/hate review. When the pen writes it is smooth and the color is beautiful. Unfortunately the ink frequently stops flowing and writing is impossible. Maybe I received a defective pen, but I've never had a problem with Pentel products before. I would not buy this pen again unless there was some assurance that the ink would flow consistently.

Lasted two extremely brief uses then the ink flow stopped, and I haven't been able to revive it. I see that other people have had the same problem with this line of pens. Too unreliable.

I LOVE these pens. The needle-point tip is strong, and it writes a very fine line. I use it for just about everything. The purple color just makes it better!

I love the rich color and the extreme smoothness, and the pen is comfortable to hold. The line produced seems thicker than the line on other 0.5mm pens.

This is a great pen.
It writes almost as clean as gel pen, and it feels a little smoother than gel pen if I remember correctly.
