I had a similar experience to the user below who said it left blotches of ink when writing. I do like the way it writes. Very fine. But occasionally it will leave splotches of ink as I write and that's not good.

The Zebra Techno Line 0.4mm gives same width on regular notebook paper as Staedler Mars 924 0.2mm. But the look of lines absolutely different, Staedler writes smooth, solid, clean, black lines. Writing with Zebra pen have small feel of scratching a paper, not smooth, not solid, but yes it does still black lines.
Conclusion: $2.00 is best price for Zebra Techno Line pen.

So it turned out that I had a defect and I got another one that writes really well. So I take back what I said about this pen because it does write well and is worth getting.

I absolutely love this pen, with the only exception being that I prefer blue ink over black. Have asked, but apparently not available in blue at the moment. Didn't stop me from buying lots of them and sharing with staff and friends. I am a heavy Zebra pen fan. Guess I should have been a pen sells person!

One of my favorite pens. Wonderful for small writing, lettering and sketching. I like the (very slight) drag the nib has, since it makes it easier to control. I use mine every day and have never had a problem with blotches.

Inconsistent ink flow. Writes a very thin line. Will not be writing letters with this pen.

Sorry, but I am not impressed with this pen. The pen seems to drag and at times the point seems to catch on the paper. The 0.4mm point is too fine. Your written text is difficult to read.

I don't know if I just got a defective pen or what, but this pen writes horribly for me. It's smooth, but it leaves blotches of ink everywhere. And my notes look messy and if I run my hands over it, it smears even more. I got this pen with my first Jetstream and this pen is about 10 tens worse...

Perhaps I got the bad one out of the batch, but I am very unhappy with this pen and do not trust Zebra pens anymore...

This is a great pen. The ink quality is more like a gel pen (you dont have to press hard to write). Awesome color with a strong tip. Lightweight, not bulky.

Follow-up: For those who, like me, couldn't figure out how to open the pen, the kind folks at JetPens told me how. The metal part unscrews from the bottom of the barrel. Remove cartridge and spring, put new cartridge into spring and insert into barrel, then screw together again. I needed to use two of those round rubber thingies meant for opening jars to get a grip. Voila! Hope this helps others.

I love this pen! But, as noted by another user, I cannot figure out how to open it to put in the refill. Can anyone PLEASE tell us how to do this???

Great pen...I'd give it 5 stars, but I absolutely cannot get it apart to refill it. And I bought a refill for it!!

Very smooth pen, not scratchy at all. I have this pen in almost every color- it's definitely my "go to" pen. Not ideal for people who like to write big though. It's definitely for small writing. Perfect for me.

FABULOUS PEN!!! it writes very thin but is not scratchy. it writes very smoothly across the paper!!! buy one fast and a refill cuz i don't use mine all the time but i hear they run out of ink fast.
