June 8, 2011
While the 0.38mm tip writes fine lines, I am rather disappointed in the ink
reservoir. If you pay close attention, the inner diameter on the refill is
much smaller than most normal refillable pens which explains why these pens have
such a short lifespan. The inner diameter on this refill is 2mm (approximately
3/32”) whereas other pens, like the Zebra Sarasa or the Uni-ball Signo 0.5mm,
have a much wider inner diameter. These pens have a 5mm (approximately 5/32”)
inner diameter, resulting in 2.5 times more ink than the Signo 0.38mm RT.
It’s a great price, especially for those who love super fine tips. Me?
I’ll take the extra ink with a 0.5mm tip.

To the guy who is complaining about the reservoir size. It isn't that the .38
size has a smaller reservoir in particular, it's that the retractable signo's as
a model have a smaller reservoir. Any size of signo DX models will have the same
size reservoir. If you want .38 and still want a big reservoir go look at the
.38 signo DXs. They also come in .28 and .5 btw. Anyways, the pen itself has
been good to me as all the models of signo I've tried have been. Other than that
sometimes not having to worry about a cap can be a good thing. Also, the grip is
farther down the pen, which is better for me because I hold pens closer to the
tip, which with the Signo DX model is pretty far up so I end up holding past the
grip anyways.

Really good pen for quick sketching. Very smooth (it occasionally has a few
skips, and it will scratch, but its rare). Only real complaint I have is that
the ink runs down really quickly, but then again, it is a gel pen.

I used this kind of uni in my high school (more than 5 years ago), at that time,
I thought these gel pens were very good.
However, when using this 0.38 pen today, I think it's kinda of scratching paper.
The friction is so uncomfortable to me. I used to have high expectation for
uni-signo 207 0.38mm blue/black too, but it turns out they're waste of money.
So far, I could not find any other comfortable, high-quality and elegant writing
instruments like Uni-ball Jetstream Ballpoint Pen - 0.7 mm - Alpha Gel Grip
Series. I changed all my pencil,ball pens,multiple pens and ink pens to the
alpha gel grip ones.

My goodness, what a smooth, creamy line! The only thing that would improve this
would be a pivot-clip (like the Zebra pens). I am smitten!

My favorite retractable pen. Fairly smooth, dark ink. Good for filling out small
spaced forms. However, ink supply is very limited - I can exhaust one in less
than a week.

The Signo RTs are some of my most favorite pens. The smaller point makes note
taking a lot neater looking. It writes smoothly, it's comfortable to hold, don't
hesitate to buy this pen.
Although a word of caution, the ink volume is about half of the larger point
uniball pens. Yes, the smaller point uses less ink but still eats through the
ink. Other than that I find it to be a great pen for students; I've already had
a friend who wanted to trade something for my pen.

Smoothness: okay
Precision: okay
Weight: light
grip feeling: okay
cushion: solid
Overall: Okay. I personally prefer Pilot G-Knock Retractable Gel Ink Pen - 0.38
mm
for better grip and better nonslip feature of the cushion.

I've bought all the colors and I love the pen. I'm just sad that the black pen
is sold out at the moment.

Writes well and very comfortable, but ink doesn't last very long.

I bought this pen based on the reviews. I love this one! This one is pretty thin
which is what I like :)

June 11, 2009
I have used this pen for almost 2 years now and have tried the other, the latest
in comparison which pen is better. Even tried the Pilot 0.3mm HI-Tech Slimline.
RT Uni-ball Signo 0.38mm is far better.
I will keep on trying the new ones but up till now this is the best one.
