This is the best pen..., August 2, 2010
This review is from Pilot FriXion Point 04 Gel Ink Pen - 0.4 mm - Violet
This is the best pen in the whole world, absolutely and without question.
Okay, maybe I'm biased. I like (very) fine-point gel pens. Purple ink makes me
smile. Also, I make a lot of msitakse when I write. My potential list of
favorite pens is thus a little limited. But here it is: the most wonderful pen
there ever was, for now. (I'm still holding out for a 0.3 mm point.)
The ink color is good--a little more purple than violet--and the 0.4 mm
designation seems about right. The thoroughness of erasure depends on the paper
you're using, with results ranging from acceptable (slight shadowing) to
flawless. It's amazing to erase without tearing up the paper and producing
"crumbs." I still feel a compulsion to brush away the imaginary erasure dust,
though.
A minor nit to pick: the erasing surface is positioned on the body of the pen,
so if you like to write with the cap stuck on the end of the pen, where it won't
accidentally slide off the table onto the floor into the cat's paws and under
the refrigerator.... What I'm getting at is that you can't erase unless you
leave the cap off, a situation fraught with peril. The surface also needs to be
kept clean (not usually a problem), or you'll leave permanent smudges on the
paper.
The point has held up well for me. I apply medium pressure but am clumsy and
have been known to damage my writing implements in imaginative ways. So I did
manage to bend the point sleeve (?) once. But I nudged it back into position and
haven't had any problems. I haven't experienced any detectable change in the ink
width over time, and I've put a LOT of miles on these pens. In fact, I rarely
use anything else in my collection of 32,641 fine-point gel ink pens. I'm afraid
I'll make a mstiktae, so I reach for the comfort and safety of my beautiful
Pilot FriXion.
Buy one. Buy a case. Give them to friends and family. They will love you and
forget all of your shortcomings. You will finally be happy, and the world will
be a better place.
Also, these are nice pens.

This review is from Pilot FriXion Point 04 Gel Ink Pen - 0.4 mm - Brown
Writes great. Just like the pencil like Frixion pens with a finer point. Erases
great. Ink is the same color as the tea brown^.

I didn't expect too much..., July 18, 2010
This review is from Pilot FriXion Point 04 Gel Ink Pen - 0.4 mm - Black
I didn't expect too much after using the 0.7mm version of this I picked up from
the store, but I was pleasantly surprised. Although the ink does, admittedly,
look a little faded and lacking in depth compared to other gel ink pens, the tip
is fine and points down a very nice line regardless. It's small, lightweight and
comfortable to hold, such that I do not find myself getting sore, tired hands
after writing with it for long periods of time. All in all, a solid purchase
definitely worth the $3 I paid for it.

These are perfect. They..., April 12, 2009
This review is from Pilot FriXion Point 04 Gel Ink Pen - 0.4 mm - Black
These are perfect. They write pretty dark(not as dark as a normal gel ink pen,
but still very clear and dark). I love that they write pretty thinly, but not
too thin. Erasing is absolutely AMAZING; they erase COMPLETELY and leave NO
residue.
