Uni-ball Signo 207 Retractable Gel Ink Pen - 0.7 mm - Blue

A very smooth writing pen. For coloring uses, you should be aware that it's darker than sky blue, more of a medium-to-light "cool" blue (tinged toward purple, rather than green). That's after it's dried completely; it goes down like a light indigo blue. It's a beautiful color, but not sky blue. It does look sky-blue in writing.

The pigment doesn't seem to be evenly dispersed throughout the gel medium, leading to something of a streaky effect in coloring. This doesn't seem to be a factor in writing. I'm not sure whether it's just a glitch in this pen or not. Still, I thought it bore mentioning.

I agree with the other reviewer. The shade of green is very bright and cheery. Writes well, too!

This is one of my all-time favorite colors -- soft blue but not too light to read. I think of a sunny day when I use this pen... so glad you're carrying this!

I didn't know what I was getting into when I added this pen to my cart, but it is the most spectacular shade of green that I've ever had in a pen. It's a bright shade of green, but it's completely readable unlike other green pens. The green of the body does not even hint at the great shade - which is different even from the Uniball Signo bit green. It also continues the joy of the 207 pens by writing smoothly.

Since I use these pens for doodling and hobby coloring, I LIKE that it's a visibly lighter pink than you get from the Pilot Choose or the Zebra Sarasa-- it expands my color range! For writing something you want to be able to read later under less-than-optimal lighting situations... I can see that it might be a problem. It all depends on how you intend to use the pen.

But regardless of whether this color is what you want or not, this pen itself performs beautifully. The ink flows smoothly without scratchiness.
