Uni Jetstream Color Ink Series Ballpoint Pen - 0.5 mm - Black Ink

I love how thin the lines are and how smooth it writes. It's really awesome.

The ink is a relatively thin black color, and does not provide a lot of boldness or darkness because the 0.5mm line is so thin. Even though it's scratchy, it still globs occasionally, although the globs are never really noticeable unless you look for them. Overall I had very little problems and was extremely satisfied with the clarity of my lines (when I take notes, I often have to write in small text and I don't like my page looking crowded).

The pen is somewhat of a mixed bag, but overall I have had positive experiences with the Jetstream Color line. First, I love the relatively thin diameter and the fact that there is no grip. I love the white barrel color and the accurate barrel representation of the ink color. The plunger is springy and satisfying (perhaps my favorite part of the pen itself). One problem I noticed is that if you unscrew the bottom and screw it back on too tight, there might be a lot of tension and cause cracking down the barrel, as there was in my first Jetstream Color. (Just be aware and don't screw it on too tight!)

When I first started using the pen I noticed a rattling noise, which I think is caused from the clicking mechanism on top of the pen. The noise doesn't really bug me, what I don't like about the pen is how the ink skips. I'm not sure if it's the angle that I'm holding the pen causing the ink to skip, but I noticed a significant difference from the regular Uni Jetstream 0.5 pen. I wanted to try this pen out because of the slim body but I'm finding out that the regular Jetstream writes better.

Love this pen! writes really smooth and sharp!

This is a wonderful pen. I love the size and flows...some delays but overall a good pen.
