  This pen is fantastic...., September 26, 2011

By gsa...

This pen is fantastic. Due to a previous person's review stating that the pen was too scratchy I bought this .28 size and the .38 size. While the pen does have a scratchy quality due to the small size I found that I acually liked the drag on the paper and that my handwriting was far more legible.
The black - blue color ink is a great mix of the two colors, that also looks unique.
The pen ink lasted a lot longer than I had expected, and that was with daily all day use. I will definitely be buying this pen again.

This pen has a stronger tip and better ink than others. I've tried the Hybrid Technica and Hi-Tec-C pens and I disliked how fragile their tips were, you feel like you're going to break it if you write too fast. In addition, the ink from this pen dries significantly faster than the others', which is really nice if you're going to be writing on a semi-glossy surface like taking notes in a textbook, writing a card, or writing left-handed. After I tried this pen, I never bothered trying another manufacturer's again.

I swear by this pen. The blue black is such a classy color. It writes smoothly and is perfect for taking neat notes or writing in small print.

The color is fantastic but I personally find the 0.28 mm size almost too small considering the scratchy feel during writing.

I've reviewed how great the black version is, and I must say I really like this blue-black color! Writes equally smoothly, makes my hands and eyes happy!

I am rather sorry to say, this pen is really fragile! D:

Which is a real drawback from it being the PERFECT school pen.

The first one I bought, I dropped it on the floor with the cap on. So i picked it up, and started writing again. To my horror, it was leaking ink. And then it would stop working suddenly, then all the ink comes suddenly again. I was so disappointed I had to buy another one. Right now, I am really protective of it , I would never let it get close enough to the edge of my desk x]

Anyone having the same problem?

By busyfolder

This is by far, my favourite colour!!

Black and Blue-Black in this pen have been my workhorse pens for the last year. Being a student, I write many, many notes and so have gone through about 7 blue-blacks. Out of that I have had trouble with 2 pens. One never wrote well and another stopped working half-way through its ink supply. Otherwise these are excellent pens! I will continue to buy these pens.

By mikefeldberg

I love these pens. Bought a few in Europe and couldn't find any here in the States. Thank you, JetPens!!

The ink is very quick to dry, it will never skip or sploch. Nor will it leak if left in contact with paper or clothing. Amazing writing instrument for those who wish to keep neat, fine print.

One thing to look out for is how fragile these pens are. Because of the precision design, the ballpoint is easily damaged. This isn't to say that this pen won't last you till it's dry, but don't drop it on the tip. I broke two like this =\. Gotta kick my twirling habit.

Overall: Best writing instrument evar.

By fyumori

I bought this along with a 0.25mm Pilot Hi-Tec-C; I've used almost half of the ink Signo DX and almost none of the Hi-Tec-C. The reinforced tip on the Signo makes it much easier to write quickly without skips in the ink. The ink dries very quickly, which is also a nice feature. I also have an fairly unused Pentel Hybrid Technica 0.3mm which stays unused due to the same weak tip as the Hi-Tec-C and its slow drying ink.

The blue-black ink appears black, even if you're looking at it hard. I'd recommend getting a lighter blue if you want blue looking ink.
