By terrijones

I love this pen. The nib is smooth and it has a salutary effect on my penmanship. It is nice to hold and certainly handles a variety of finer and not-so-fine paper without bleeding. I would not encourage you to take it on a plane without removing the ink cartridge however, like may fountain pens, it hates plane travel! Very nice correspondence pen!

  Great pen, but for two..., June 11, 2011

By Mank204

Great pen, but for two years I could not use it because nowhere could I find ink for it. While looking for a pen that writes purple and
extra fine tip, came across refills for my Plumix Fountain Pen. JetPens carries both! I am one happy person and JetPens will be
where I go for my pen needs from now on. America sells us pens all the time, but does not supply the refils. You have to buy another pen. I will try and get the word out. Thanks JetPens.

  Very cute little pen,..., May 29, 2011

By tere_ghan

Very cute little pen, especially when paired with Pilot's blue or blue-black ink. Writes beautifully compared to other pens in this price range and the cap stays posted nicely with no rattling. I personally liked the plastic grip right off, even though I tend to hold my pens a little higher up. Now I just need the black one!

  Another great product..., April 10, 2011

By emily_chang

Another great product from Pilot! I purchased this inexpensive pen so I try out could try out an italic nib (although I believe it actually has what is known as a "music nib," which means that it will make a mark whether you push or pull it across the paper). Regardless, it is excellent for calligraphy practice, and produces a line thin enough to use for everyday writing purposes.

I also purchased a Pilot CON-20 converter, which fits perfectly in place of a regular cartridge (which I haven't tested yet, unfortunately). I have some Noodler's ink in there right now, and the pen writes very smoothly...a pleasure to use!

The triangular grip is similar to that of the Pilot Penmanship, and similarly comfortable. The barrel is light but sturdy plastic, so you can write for a while without your hand getting tired. Again, the only issue I have with this line of pens is the inconvenience of having to unscrew the cap every time I want to use it, but that's a small complaint compared with the overall value.

I bought this pen in purple body at Target of all places. I will tell you this that I recommend that you was the nib first to make sure there is no residue on it. I am in love with this pen. My hand took to the grip nicely and it wrights smoothly. The other reason I bought this pen is that the refills are cheap as well. You can get a 12 pack of cartages for 2.00 and 6 of the Color for 6$.

I am about to order the blue and back bodies.

  I've used the Rotring..., December 9, 2010

By vnrwlk

I've used the Rotring Art Pen for a long time using the medium tip. When I purchased the Pilot Plumix there is good and bad. Good - I like the comfortable grip that it has and is definitely shaped for writing style for your fingers. Bad - It isn't as smooth writing like the Rotring Art Pen. I use Noodlers Super Black Ink and the ink doesn't come out as black on the Plumix as it does on the Rotring. The medium tip on the Rotring is slightly wider than the medium tip on the Plumix. The unscreweble cap on the Plumix reminds me of a "squid". Only if I can transfer the comfortable writing handle of the Plumix on to my Rotring then I got the Calligraphy pen that I need. Of course with a little added weight on the pen would also help.

By fuz...

I didn't get mine from Jetpens, but I do plan to get the penmanship. Pilot did a great job, except for including BLUE ink by default. Writes smooth and just thick enough so it doesn't take 3 pages to write 2, but it's thin enough that I think about what I'm writing and try to write a little clearer. Triangular grip takes some getting used to, and the threaded cap is a pain, but it all works out.

ALSO: I find that if the picture were shrunk by 88 percent it would be actual size. Also also: take the brightness down by 50 percent.

By leila

This is a neat pen to mess around with for calligraphy letterform practice, because the nib is slightly broad and flat, and is pretty much cut straight across so even lefties (like myself) shouldn't have trouble using it. The shape is odd, but not uncomfortable to use, and the ink has a decent flow.
