Tachikawa Comic Nib Fountain Pen - School Model Nib - Extra Fine - Black Ink

Btw dip tip in warm water b4 and after each use and wipe the tip with dry napkins help a great deal. If u plan 2 not in use it 4 more than 2 weeks then remove ink cartilage and wash the tip or nib with hot water at least 3 times and wipe in dry. U can put rest of ink cartilage wrapped in plasti wrap and in zipbag 2 keep it from drying. This way u don't have to worry about the ink drying and ruining your pen when u take long break from it. don't leave pen's tip/nib dirty with ink and uncleaned for 2 weeks or more even if your not using it. Read warning in product description.

Wow. 0_0 Wow wow wow.... amazingly thin with good flow. easy to use too. Just that some people tend to put too much pressure which is needed for some pens so that the ink flows better. BUT this pen, u don't need heavy pressure to get good flow. The ink comes naturally even when u lighty tap or touch paper. Because the tip/nib is very-wow-fine, the metal tip/nib is thin and like every thin metal it can bend if u try to kill the paper by knifing it but in serious means, the tip is fairly strong 4 it being so thin. I'm usually hard on pens and break my plastic mechanical pencils but I'm doing great with this. Just try it. Totally recommended. I rarely give 5 stars but this pen is so amazing so I just have to. If u r a heavy poke-holes-through-paper pen user and tend to break ur 0.7 mm mechanical pencil led everytime u use it, then get the fine tip version instead.

This pen has become my favorite pen. If you are an illustrator or just like sketching in pen this is a really nice pen to use. It has a good flow and a lot of character in the lines. I will probably be using this for a very long time.

Tried everything, couldn't get it to stay consistent after the first 3 days of use. Scratches paper up into the nib constantly and gunks up quickly.

It's really good if you use it often. More like you NEED to use it if you want to keep it alive. Mine broke from just leaving it alone for two weeks after being swamped with school work. The ink inside the cartridge and some on the nib itself dried up and now I get inconsistent ink flow. If you really want to learn how to use a pen nib, this is a good intro to your learning, but actual dip pens with nibs are much easier to care for.
