	Zebra Penpod Mini Keychain Ballpoint Pen - 0.7 mm - Green Body - Blue Ink Had this pen for at least..., February 10, 2012 By lol... Had this pen for at least a year now. I'm not brutal with my keys as such, but the Penpod has held up without breaking off or cracking! Usually carry a pen in my bag, but when I forget, this little guy has spared me from having to use gasp public pens that every unwashed hand has already touched! ;) Just used it yesterday at the doctor's office and kinda wish I had more than one set of keys so I had a ready excuse to get it in other colors. Definitely too small for extended writing. Remember to pop the pen securely back in the spring-loaded cap.
	Pilot Prera Fountain Pen - Fine Nib - Slate Gray Body Smooth & Fine! Just what..., February 10, 2012 By bev... Smooth & Fine! Just what I was looking for. I favor the Japanese standard for Fine (this writes finer than the German Lamy & Kaweco Extra Fine nibs). This is my new favorite pen. The size and weight are small and light, which is also what I prefer. The pen width and grip is comfortable. The cap is airtight & has a soft click to it. And I love the classy Slate Gray color! I just may get another one in a different color... Like the other reviewer mentioned the ink output on my pen was originally very light so I also spread the tines ever so slightly with a plastic report cover and the flow is perfect now.
	Kuretake Comic Pen Nib - G Model - Pack of 3 This is a really great..., February 9, 2012 By chinny97 This is a really great pen nib! I just ordered it the other day and it draws smooth. I would definety recommend this pen nib.
	Uni-ball Jetstream 4&1 4 Color 0.7 mm Ballpoint Multi Pen + 0.5 mm Pencil - Black Body how do you put lead in..., February 9, 2012 By mb3604 how do you put lead in the pencil?
	Rhodia Reinforced Staple Bound Notepad - Orange Cover - 6" X 8.25" - 80 Sheets - Lined + Margin So far, Rhodia pads are..., February 9, 2012 By jordanr1186 So far, Rhodia pads are the nicest I have seen. The cover is probably the best part because it folds behind, which is perfect because I am left handed and can't stand when a spine is hard to keep open. The paper is very nice and the lines are very sharp, unlike other filler paper which has blurry lines. I will be buying the 10 pack next time as I now know I love these. Thanks JetPens!
	Saki P-661 Roll Pen Case with Traditional Japanese Fabric - Purple This is a very elegant..., February 9, 2012 By jea... This is a very elegant and minimalist roll case. I like the fabric, it feels great. I managed to fit a ruler, 4 roll pens, 2 pencils and 1 sharpie and I'm still able to roll the case without it looking overstuffed. If you plan to stash your desk in this, you might find that real estate is limited.
	Kokuyo Campus Todai Series Pre-Dotted Notebook - Semi B5 (7" X 9.8") - 6 mm - 35 Lines X 30 Sheets - Pack of 5 Cover Colors This paper has a very..., February 9, 2012 By youngjustice This paper has a very smooth feel that is great for taking notes and general writing. It feels thin but holds up well to repeated erasing and does not show through too much on the back. I have been using it for pencil and gel pen notes and both slide nicely across the paper. The papers are very well secured in the binding and even with much folding open of the book they don't seem to budge at all. I am not sure what they actual did with the binding, it appears to be glued in folded sheets, but it is hard to see. Regardless, it is very secure. I will definitely be buying these again.
	A.G. Spalding & Bros BRB707 Aluminum Mini Ballpoint Pen with Clip - 0.8 mm I was extremely excited..., February 9, 2012 By lum... I was extremely excited about this pen upon its arrival. I immediately tested it out and was somewhat disappointed because the ink was skipping or just wouldn't write. I continued writing with it more, on various surfaces including a pad of papers, hoping that the ink would be more continuous and heavy and finally the pen started performing! I love its classy look, its size and dependability. It may be a mini pen at only 4 1/2 inches long, but is surely going to be my go to pen.
	Nomadic CB-01 Wise-Walker Multi Compartment Day Backpack - Navy This is a fantastic bag,..., February 9, 2012 By aliera This is a fantastic bag, but comes short of perfection for me: Pros: -LOTS of little compartments- great for holding small gadgets, keeps things from getting scratched -Bright orange liner- easy to find things, even in dim light -Sturdy "handle" bit at the top- useful for hanging the bag on hooks -Hidden wallet pocket is a nice touch. It's on the side. -Durable, rainproof material keeps everything dry. -Bag is great using both straps or just over one shoulder. -Exceptionally light for size -Compact, yet still holds a lot Cons: -The lunch compartment (bottom portion of the backpack in the front), if empty it has trouble standing on it's own- this bad always has to be leaning against something -tends to be a little top heavy unless you use the lunch compartment, which I don't often. -minor con- sometimes zippers can get slightly caught on the rain protection flaps, but that rarely happens Overall it's a great bag and I don't regret buying it, but I wish it was just a tiny bit better. And yet this is by far better than the generic, heavy, huge compartment backpacks that are so common here, so I probably can't complain too much.
	Uni-ball Jetstream 4&1 4 Color 0.7 mm Ballpoint Multi Pen + 0.5 mm Pencil - Bright Series - Green Body AWESOME pen. I deliberated..., February 9, 2012 By dan... AWESOME pen. I deliberated over buying a $15 pen (I see the price has gone up since then) but nothing beats having 4 ink colors (smooth-writing gel ink, no less) plus a pencil and eraser, all in one instrument. For meetings, noting things in my planner, etc. I just grab my trusty pen and go. Plus, it looks cool, so you make a better impression in meetings, interviews, etc. than you can with a 99-cent cheapo pen. Downsides: 1. It's thick and grippy, which feels great in the hand but makes it unsuitable for my planner pen loop. Easily solved, though--I hang the pen from the loop by the clip instead. 2. Since I use this pen almost exclusviely now, I run through lots of inks. But they're pretty cheap on this site. I stock up!
	Lamy Nexx Fountain Pen - Fine Steel Nib - Green Cap Not as sleek as the Safari,..., February 9, 2012 By topfuel1471 Not as sleek as the Safari, but it's the same feed and nib. Writing is characteristic of -and identical to- all other Lamy fountain pens. They are utilitarian pens meant for everyday and student use, and they fill that need well. The Nexx is great step up from plastic fountain pens like the Preppy pens while having a more fun aesthetic than the Safari.
	Zebra Regal Liquid Ink Needle Point Roller Ball Pen - 0.5 mm - Red The ink has the same..., February 9, 2012 By topfuel1471 The ink has the same ideal fluidity as the black and blue, but in an extremely vibrant red. It's almost an orange. Very visible- which is the point of a red pen.
	Zebra Regal Liquid Ink Needle Point Roller Ball Pen - 0.5 mm - Black An ideal disposable rollerball..., February 9, 2012 By topfuel1471 An ideal disposable rollerball. Great for those with small handwriting or those doing technical work. Fluid, doesn't skip, and cheap; what more could you ask for.
	E+M Think Big 5.5 mm Lead Sharpener - Walnut This just wasn't what..., February 9, 2012 By RoysterSB This just wasn't what I expected. True, one of the photos does show that this is a thumb-sized sharpener. And, true, the name and description do say this sharpens 5.5 mm leads. But what you don't realize until you get it is that it's tiny, and no regular pencil fits it. (http://www.jetpens.com/E-M-Pencil-Lead-5.5-mm-Graphite-HB-Pack-of-6/pd/7360 is the lead fits into a lead holder) It is beautifully smooth and shiny, but useless for the casual pencil user's needs.
	Ohto Fude Ball Liquid Ink Roller Ball Pen - 1.5 mm - Black Body - Black Ink The best broad pen around,..., February 9, 2012 By sch... The best broad pen around, really good ink supply considering the broad tip, just wish it came in blue ink also. LOVE IT !!!!!!
	Kuretake ZIG Brush Style Highlighter Pen - Pink Works great, not too..., February 9, 2012 By lol... Works great, not too wet so should avoid bleed through on most paper, and can easily layer the color as needed. I do not believe it is refillable. The brush end is wonderful for how I use this pen because I use it to draw and 'paint' embellishments on otherwise plain greeting cards. I'm unable to describe how the different highlighter colors work when applied on top of each other because I don't want to risk staining the brush tips with a foreign color.
	Kuretake ZIG Brush Style Highlighter Pen - Orange Works great, not too..., February 9, 2012 By lol...

	Kuretake ZIG Brush Style Highlighter Pen - Yellow Works great, not too..., February 9, 2012 By lol... Works great, not too wet so should avoid bleed through on most paper, and can easily layer the yellow color as needed. I do not believe it is refillable. The brush end is wonderful for how I use this pen because I use it to draw and 'paint' embellishments on otherwise plain greeting cards.

	Lamy Fountain Pen - Safari Model - Medium Nib - Red Body & Chrome Clip Not the fire-engine red..., February 9, 2012 By lol... Not the fire-engine red I was looking for hence the -2 stars (I really was hoping for a fire-engine or lipstick red.). I own several Lamy Safaris -- combination of good price and works great right out the box. Usually I find Lamy to be a wet writer especially in the M nib compared to Japanese FPs in M. The red body color of this pen is darker than I wanted, perhaps with a hint of orange (?) in this northerly (Chicago) winter morning light. Other than the body color not being what I hoped for, I love the function of all my other Lamy Safaris (charcoal, white, pink, etc :). You can really have fun trying other inks so make sure to get at least one converter.
	Lamy Balloon Liquid Ink Roller Ball Pen - 0.7 mm - Green Body Pretty colored barrell...., February 9, 2012 By mpo... Pretty colored barrell. Skips. Not worth the money.
	Pilot Dr. Grip Pure White Dual Layer Grip Mechanical Pencil - 0.5 mm - Pink Accent Body Yes it can the uni-gel..., February 9, 2012 By tb.lietz Yes it can the uni-gel only has comfort. This has the perfect amount of balance of grip and comfort. 2 in 1 twice the fun
	Rotring 800 Drafting Pencil - 0.5 mm - Black Body I own many different..., February 9, 2012 By vit... I own many different mechanical pencils and I am a collector. I wanted to give the rotring 800 a try and I bought the 2.0 and the 0.5mm version, both in black color. I have to say that the mp is solid and comfortable to use, if you love heavy writing staff like I do. The weight helps a lot in using a low force to write and draw nice black lines. Anyway I can’t give more than 3 stars. Not because of the price, but because of the retractable tip. I love the idea but not how they made it. The tip seems to have a little of play, not very stable like other rotrings that I own. In the beginning I thought that it was a problem of my 0.5 so I made a video and sent it to other rotring 800 users that I found searching in ebay feedbacks. Most of them told me that they have the same “problem”. This is not something that you will easily notice when you write or draw, but from a rotring I expected more “stability”. I am more then happy with the 2.0mm version, but I really don’t suggest to buy the 800 0.5 unless you can try it. I will not return it because, as I said, I am a collector, but if I had to decide what MP to buy I would go for a rapid pro or a 600.
	Pilot 2+1 Slim 2 Color 0.7 mm Ballpoint Multi Pen + 0.5 mm Pencil - Silver Body I found one of these..., February 9, 2012 By wkk... I found one of these on the ground one day, picked it up and started using it. Paired it with an eraser stick and never used anything else for 2 years. Worked perfectly, slim, no annoying rubber grip, never jammed and tight enough for basic drafting! Then I lost it, had a hard time finding a replacement till I found this site, not sold in US apparently. Can not wait for the new one to arrive.
	Staedtler 925-35 Drafting Pencil - 0.7 mm Elegant eye candy. I..., February 9, 2012 By kxc... Elegant eye candy. I have the entire set including the leadholder. Mid weight. Sleek navy blue finish with with a faint glimmer to the (anodized surface?). The plating job is perfect. Good clip. Lead advance is just right (little at a time with a muted click). The grip is excellent on the whole series. Take it easy on the Staedtlers when you insert or remove the eraser (Dont push it in hard because the lead storage tube is not brass) Overall a nice group of mech pencils.
	122KCal Roll Pencil Case - Heart Red I just love them. The..., February 9, 2012 By kxc... I just love them. The quality is very good. They just glow. Subdued or bright colors. I keep my entire pencil collection in these. 5 pens or mechanical pencils individually per pocket or 10 to 15 if you dont mind a more snug fit.
	Rotring 800 Lead Holder Clutch Knock System - 2 mm - Silver Body Solid well made leadholder...., February 9, 2012 By kxc... Solid well made leadholder. On the heavy side but very well balanced. Knock button mechanism works flawlessly with no rattle. Knurled grip is comfortable with no sharp edges. No lead play (wobble). Can be broken down to gently clean. Beautiful drawing pencil...
	Pentel Sharp Drafting Pencil - 0.5 mm - Green Body I really love these pencils,..., February 8, 2012 By thu... I really love these pencils, ever since I used one in drafting class in highschool. They are very sturdy, easy to disassemble, and the long tip makes the pencil very easy to control. The only reason I didn't give it five stars is because it looks a little homely. It's not the most stylish pencil, but it'll get the job done. p.s. These pencils are terrible for colored leads. When I try to use colored leads in these, the lead ALWAYS breaks.
	Ohto Pieni Wooden Body Mini Needle-Point Ballpoint Pen - 0.5 mm - Gray Body This pen writes fine,..., February 8, 2012 By thu... This pen writes fine, and the wooden barrel is unique, but like other reviewers have said, the clicker mechanism is loose. Also, the clip isn't secure, so it slides right off the pen. I just got mine and the clip has fallen off twice.
	Rotring 600 Lead Holder Drop System - 2 mm - Black Body Truly Exquisite!...if..., February 8, 2012 By kxc... Truly Exquisite!...if you could have but one leadholder...this is it. Perfect balance (suprisingly light). Satin matte black finish. Smooth well functioning clutch, no wobbling. Everything that can be expected of the Rotring 600 series. Nice drawing pencil. Black Beauty!...what are you waiting for...order one now! :o)
	Pilot Namiki Fountain Pen Ink Cartridge - Green - Set of 6 Solid green color, and..., February 8, 2012 By jdshull Solid green color, and excellent flow. There are better greens in terms of color, but none of them have the safety and reliability of Pilot's formulation.
	Platinum Preppy Fountain Pen - Medium 05 Nib - Black Ink Great pen at a great..., February 8, 2012 By manderz6869 Great pen at a great price. Write very well. Extremely easy to change the cartridge.
	Uni-ball Signo (DX) UM-151 Gel Ink Pen - 0.38 mm - Black This is my absolute favorite..., February 8, 2012 By bri... This is my absolute favorite pen. I picked up a bunch without much consideration when I lived in Japan a few years ago. After a few months, I realized just how amazing they were. It was the first time I had ever said to myself, "wow, what a great pen." Then after moving back to the states I realized they were impossible to find outside of Japan. Not even art supply stores had them. I finally found them on Jetpens-what a godsend! They're the best!
	Tombow Zoom 505 Mechanical Pencil - Limited Edition - 0.5 mm - Azure Blue Body Smooth beauty this one..., February 8, 2012 By tortmom Smooth beauty this one is! This Azure Blue completed my collection of these fine mechanical pencils. I own all four now and hold on to them with greedy delight. They're a little on the hefty side, but I personally like that about the pencil. It's just a delight.
	Pilot Fure Fure BeatNic 2 Color 0.7 mm Ballpoint Multi Pen + 0.5 mm Pencil - Yellow Body Very cumbersome to write..., February 8, 2012 By mpo... Very cumbersome to write with. Barrel is too fat. Ink is rather pale. Not worth the price.
	Pilot Envelope Address Writing Gel Ink Pen - Extra Fine I bought 4 or 5 of these..., February 8, 2012 By mpo... I bought 4 or 5 of these pens, barely used them before they had all dried up! I absolutely can not recommend.
	Uni-ball Signo RT UM-138 Gel Ink Pen - 0.38 mm - Lavender Purple Black Incredible pen. It feels..., February 8, 2012 By mpo... Incredible pen. It feels good in your hand. It writes superbly well. The ink color is fantastic.
	Uni-ball Signo (DX) UM-151 Gel Ink Pen - 0.38 mm - Blue Black AWESOME! The absolute..., February 8, 2012 By mpo... AWESOME! The absolute best buy pen available. I own many!
	Lamy Balloon Liquid Ink Roller Ball Pen - 0.7 mm - Red Body I love the color of the..., February 8, 2012 By mpo... I love the color of the body. The pen writes rather poorly, with a lot of skipping. Far too expensive for the quality. I would not buy this again.
	Lamy Balloon Liquid Ink Roller Ball Pen - 0.7 mm - Green Body I love the color of the..., February 8, 2012 By mpo... I love the color of the body. The pen writes rather poorly, with a lot of skipping. Far too expensive for the quality. I would not buy this again.

	Lamy Balloon Liquid Ink Roller Ball Pen - 0.7 mm - Orange Body I love the color of the..., February 8, 2012 By mpo... I love the color of the body. The pen writes rather poorly, with a lot of skipping. Far too expensive for the quality. I would not buy this again.
	Uni-ball Jetstream Color Ink Series Ballpoint Pen - 0.5 mm - Black Ink This pen does write smoothly,..., February 8, 2012 By mpo... This pen does write smoothly, however, the ink is not bold. The pen is slim, which I do like. My mani complaint is the price, which really is quite high. There are other pens that cost much less.
	Pilot Petit1 Mini Fountain Pen - White Body This pen actually looks..., February 8, 2012 By adc... This pen actually looks and feels even better in person than it does in pictures. For $3.30 it's an absolute steal. The nib writes really smoothly, and does not leave me wanting for my full sized fountain pens. The cap also closes tightly, a major must for a truly pocketable item.
	Kitaboshi Lead Holder - 2 mm Knock-style! A loud..., February 8, 2012 By astrowarrior Knock-style! A loud knock too! I have put a red foam rubber grip on the front and use it as a sidearm for my Staedtler 925-02. Without the after-market grip, I'd rate it a 4 because the wood seems to be a little harder and sharp edged than most wooden pencils. Usually knock-style 2mm leadholders are more spendy, so this is a must-buy IMHO for drafting/mechanical pencil fanatics.
	Kitaboshi 2 mm Pencil Lead Sharpener For $2.50 this is a cute..., February 8, 2012 By astrowarrior For $2.50 this is a cute enough lead pointer, but it is no rival to the reliability or precision of the Uni-ball lead pointer. Pro: Cheap enough not to break your heart (or bank) if you lose it. Cons: Sometimes grabs the lead and turns it within the leadholder, and can be messy if not emptied regularly.
	Uni-ball Propus Window Soft Color Double-Sided Highlighter Pen - 4.0 mm / 0.6 mm Twin Tip - 5 Color Set I've always liked writing..., February 8, 2012 By pham.m0223 I've always liked writing utensils but when I first used these highlighters, I fell in LOVE! It was always so frustraing not being able to see where I was highlighting, and not knowing where the last word I wanted to highlight was. With these, it's not a problem anymore! Plus the lines come out so straight and the pen tip, makes these highlighters even that much more wonderful!
	Pilot FriXion Point 04 Gel Ink Pen - 0.4 mm - Clear Blue I don't understand why..., February 8, 2012 By avengingoso I don't understand why the pen is potentially refillable(the cartridge does unscrew from the body), yet refills aren't sold on Jet-pens. It boggles the mind.
	Pilot Petit Pen Refill Cartridge - Clear Blue - Set of 3 nice color this clear..., February 8, 2012 By 342564881 nice color this clear blue is just as the color shown on the outside tag. it's very pretty and easy to write with. good ink
	Pilot Petit1 Mini Fountain Pen - Clear Pink Body I just got this pink..., February 8, 2012 By 342564881 I just got this pink pen this is so great! it's out of my expectations even better compared with my lamy alstar ef fountain pen. why? 1 this pen is easy to use, only need 7 seconds to let ink out of the point 2 the point is easy to write with, not sratch paper, not like my lamy ef point 3 my lamy can't write smoothly when I wrote on thicker paper, but this pen is much better than lamy. you don't need to push to hard let the point come some ink. 4 i ordered clear blue for this pen, the ink is so pretty strongly recommed you buy this pilot petit pen if you need some pen pretty, easy to use, not cost much
	Uni-ball Double Sided Pocket Brush Pen - Fine & Medium Pro: Great feel, Light,..., February 8, 2012 By evisr8r Pro: Great feel, Light, Double Tipped, Ink does not bleed on Moleskine or Cardstock, Comparatively inexpensive, Brush control is easy, treat it like a brush and it will behave like a brush. Mid: Ink is not dark, feels like diluted black watercolor this can be a pro or con, shows pen lines below ink with one coat. Con: May take a few passes over a certain area to soak every fiber and obtain a pure black, but depending on the use this may not be a con I can't speak for ink capacity, I've only done a few heavy sketches with it so far with no complaints, but I would think this will run out quickly if you're looking for an immediate black and have to go over an area multiple times. Overall this is a nice sketching brush pen but I would choose something maybe a little darker for your final pieces unless you want a sketchy feel.
	IL Slim Bag-in-Bag - Apple Green This bag is so soft and..., February 8, 2012 By kim... This bag is so soft and light! Very well made with "padding" for electronics. Small items don't fall out of the mesh pockets when turned upside down. Would buy again to give as presents!
	Dong-A Comssa Computer Sign Pen - White Cap - 12 Pen Pack please restock these..., February 7, 2012 By lanemitch123 please restock these because it is the only thing that is keeping me away from buying a bunch of other pens!!
	Sailor Clear Candy Fountain Pen - Fine Nib - Clear Gold Body This pen provides a quality..., February 7, 2012 By jcfree4526 This pen provides a quality nib for the price. However, it may not be as solidly constructed as others in its price range. I was initially intrigued with the Clear Candy when I saw that they made a clear-body version, hoping I could convert it to an eyedropper. Unfortunately, the barrel is not airtight. While it is possible to seal it, I’m just not sure I want to go through the trouble and possibly ruin the pen. The pen came with a Sailor cartridge and inked up quickly, though a little ink seeped out of the feed. I am impressed with Sailor ink. With it, the Clear Candy lays down a consistently even and dark line. Only time will tell about the construction of the pen. It doesn’t look like it will take much abuse. For a more durable pen that is an equally good writer, I recommend the Rotring Surf or perhaps Sailor’s other entry-level pen, the HighAce Neo.
	Zebra Comic Pen Nib Holder for Round Model Nibs Zebra Maru Pen Holder Durab..., February 7, 2012 By gstrikedragon Zebra Maru Pen Holder Durable wood based nib holder and sized well enough to the point that you don't need a rubber grip to put on it. Round/Maru pens fit nicely into the slot and in my opinion writes better than the Nikko and Tachikawa free pen/round pen holders(with the nib on of course!). In closing, it's simple and it does the job well!
	Pilot Dr. Grip Full Black Dual Layer Grip Shaker Mechanical Pencil - 0.5 mm - Black Accents This is better than the..., February 7, 2012 By tb.lietz This is better than the others and cost more not because its full black. But it has dual layer for the best pencil stability and comfort. It could be the ugliest color in the world but it it has the dual layer it will be worth more
	Rotring 500 Drafting Pencil - 0.5 mm Ever since I've been..., February 7, 2012 By the... Ever since I've been retroverting back from typing on a laptop for the past 5 years to writing notes using a pen and paper, I've been on a quest to find a "fabled" good pencil. In the recent months I've been using some Ohto, Zebra, Pentel pencils purchased from Jetpens or in the stationary section of Japanese stores around me. After reading on how well-weighted, balanced and well-constructed Rotring pencils were on various reviews I decided to jump on the wagon and try a few of them out. After a few weeks with the 800, 600, and 500 I must say the one I end up using the most is the 500. Why? The 500 is solidly-built despite the plastic body and I find the weight balanced superior to the Pentel Graphgear 1000 (my previous favorite). At the end of the day I can write more without fatigue due it being lighter than the 600 and if someone decides to steal it...at least they didn't steal my 600 or 800 that I intend keep strictly at home.
	J. Herbin Fountain Pen Ink - 30 ml Bottle - Rose Cyclamen (Cyclamen Pink) This is the first other-than-b..., February 7, 2012 By jul... This is the first other-than-black ink that I use, and it's among the first J. Herbin's ink that I own, too. Based on that, the 5 star rating may seem overrated, but I'm so happy with it, so there. I call this a happy hue, which makes me want to write all day long, with which I want to record all my sweet, happy memories. I had a hard time deciding between this one and Rouge Bourgogne, and I finally settled for this as it leans more towards magenta - which is one of my favourite hues. It flows well from my Lamy AL Star, which is already a smooth writer (M nib). Both qualities combined simply make writing by hand a truly joyful experience.
	Pentel Graphgear 500 Drafting Pencil - 0.7 mm This pencil has always..., February 6, 2012 By ric... This pencil has always been on my side ever since I bought this. It has a really good grip and always gets the job done when using it at school. My friends would tell me if they could use it. Though the metal grip and plastic body may not be balanced but the pencil itself still looks good. Even though my palms get sweaty when using pencils, I have never had a problem with this pencil.
	Platinum Preppy Fountain Pen - Fine 03 Nib - Purple Ink Goods: - ink is clear..., February 6, 2012 By etr... Goods: - ink is clear and bold Bad: - mine Brooke in a month!!!!
	Pentel Rolly C4 4 Color Ballpoint Multi Pen - 0.7 mm - Orange Clip Pros: Writes pretty smoothly..., February 5, 2012 By pinchungchu Pros: Writes pretty smoothly and has just enough colors. Cons: Changing colors with the writing hand will need some getting used to.
	Pilot FriXion Erasable Gel Ink Pen Refill - 0.7 mm - Black The color if fine, especially..., February 5, 2012 By wesii The color if fine, especially in the 0.7 mm refill. This is currently my favorite pen for notes. The refill is removed by unscrewing the eraser.
	Pilot FriXion Light Fluorescent Ink Erasable Highlighter Pen - Orange I LOVE my orange highlighter...., February 5, 2012 By kla2business I LOVE my orange highlighter. It writes like a champ. It use it the most of any in my set, and yet it hasn't dried out yet. It erases COMPLETELY. I wouldn't settle for anything less. I keep them on my desk in the original plastic package - the erasers stay clean so I haven't had any problem with that. It is worth taking a peek at your eraser if you carry it around in a purse or backpack. If it has gotten dirty, erase on some scrap paper until it comes clean again. It will smudge your paper if you use it when the eraser is dirty.
	Pilot FriXion Light Fluorescent Ink Erasable Highlighter Pen - Violet The purple is too dark..., February 5, 2012 By kla2business The purple is too dark to read most text thru easily. I have the same problem to a slightly lesser degree with the blue. Pink and green have dried out for me repeatedly. I've gone thru 4 of each pink and green, while my orange and blue and purple and yellow keep going like champs. The ORANGE is awesome. And all of them erase like a dream - fully and completely. I LOVE this eraseable line of pens. Every one I've tried (highlighter, marker, ball pen) all erase very cleanly.
	Pilot FriXion Ball Knock Retractable Gel Ink Pen - 0.5 mm - 10 Color Set I adore this set. I..., February 5, 2012 By kla2business I adore this set. I love the click tops (no caps to fumble or lose). I love the mix of colors. And they erase completely. Bright, vibrant gel pen colors, and TOTAL erasability. It's a dream come true!
	Pilot FriXion Light Fluorescent Ink Erasable Highlighter Pen - Blue I agree with the previous..., February 5, 2012 By kla2business I agree with the previous reviews: the blue (and even more so the purple) are too dark. I have also had trouble with pink and green, which dry out for me very quickly - I've gone through at least 3 of each pink and green and that's using them once a day or less at work. All of the colors erase beeeautifully, tho. I looove them. I end up using mostly orange.
	Pilot FriXion Light Fluorescent Ink Erasable Highlighter Pen - Pink I have purchased 3 or..., February 5, 2012 By kla... I have purchased 3 or 4 EACH of these highlighters in pink and green, as well as every other highlighter color in the set. For some reason, every single pink and green ones goes dry very quickly. I use orange the most, so it's not because I use pink and green more. It's weird, cuz it's consistently been the pink and green ones out of 3 or 4 tries. Has anyone else run into this?

	Pelle Linen Paper Notebook Insert - Medium (4.3" X 6.8") - Plain - 64 Pages This paper is a total..., February 5, 2012 By Robynsnest This paper is a total treat to write on. I use fountain pens and I have not experienced any bleedthrough or feathering and I'm using both sides of the paper. The size of this book is about as close to perfect as you can get. Fits in my purse so I can carry it wherever I go for quick notes and journaling but big enough that it doesn't feel cramped when writing in it.
	Pelle Leather Journal - Brown - Medium + 1 Plain Linen Paper Notebook (4.3" X 6.8") Insert - 64 Pages I just received my journal..., February 5, 2012 By Robynsnest I just received my journal and really love it. I've used several types of journals and paper including moleskine and rhodia and honestly prefer the paper in this. This is now my go to journal. I use fountain pens (Cross, Lamy, and Pilot Prera) with multiple ink brands (Noodlers, Waterman, J. Herbin) and the paper is wonderful with all these pens and inks. The cover is soft and supple but plenty stable. It's a joy to write in. It just begs you to pick it up and start journaling. I purchased the plain and grid notebooks (only because the lined was out of stock) and can honestly say the paper in both is just a treat to write on. I want to buy more of these now. I'm just trying to figure out how I will justiy the purchase of another :)

	Lamy Fountain Pen - Al-Star Model - Extra Fine Nib - Purple Body Wonderful pen. Good..., February 4, 2012 By nydwyngreendragon Wonderful pen. Good work horse of the fountain pen world. Converter works great with it too. I wouldn't have it any other way.
	Pentel PG5 Slim Drafting Pencil - 0.5 mm The PG5 is the real deal...., February 4, 2012 By ohnobees The PG5 is the real deal. It's the sort of no-nonsense drafting tool that would have been used to design the Viking Mars landers or the Voyager space probes. The advance mechanism and nosepiece are identical to the p205, but everything from there up is distinctly higher-grade and arguably worth the premium. The magazine tube is metal, about 3mm in diameter, and is securely stabilized on the top end by a snug, threaded plastic collar, to which is threaded the machined aluminum top piece, which retains the advance button with its long cleaning wire. No eraser, but come on, have some self respect and carry a quality click or block eraser. This is more Sharp Kerry grade than P205, though they all use essentially similar (and quite deservedly praised) mechanisms. The vintage-pencil nerd in me adores the old-fashioned "GRAPH PENCIL" stamped into the side of the barrel. The PG5 is well worth the price, and probably the best Pentel available from this retailer.
	Uni-ball Style Fit Gel Ink Multi Pen Ink Cartridge - 0.38 mm - Blue Black Exactly what I needed...., February 4, 2012 By lil... Exactly what I needed. The Style Fit pens are a dream to write with. I was worried this wouldn't be the right color, but it is indeed the dark blue black I've grown to love. Writes smoothly, awesome color, is packaged neatly and safely, easy to replace. No complaints.
	Platinum Preppy Fountain Pen - Fine 03 Nib - Purple Ink just got this pen! omg..., February 3, 2012 By rozen_hino_21 just got this pen! omg it's so perfect! it's so cheap and nice for a decent fountain pen, it's really a steal. I used platinum converter for this and ink flows smoothly and nicely, no breaking! i will definitely buy more colors of this pen :) it's just amazing !
	Kaweco Classic Leather 2 Pen Pouch I really like this case!..., February 3, 2012 By kim I really like this case! It looks very classy and is nice and compact. It is not too heavy so it does not weigh me down. The only problem I have with it is that I like to have the clips on my Kaweco pens, and two pens do not fit well with clips on. They fit with clips but it is very very tight.
	Sun-Star Bode Electric Eraser - Black I love this thing. I..., February 3, 2012 By dan... I love this thing. I have previously only had a Derwent electric eraser and the Sun-Star is far superior. Very fast rotations erase quickly and cleanly. Highly recommend this if you are anal over clean paper and details.
	Kaweco Classic Sport Fountain Pen - Medium Nib - Black Body This is my first fountain..., February 3, 2012 By WagThatTail This is my first fountain pen beyond the cheap Zebra ones. The tip is super smooth and the flow is nice. It also looks really lovely, it's great to pull out at the counter and gets comments. My first complaint is that it's super light; Lighter than most cheap disposables. The lack of any heft makes it feel cheap to me thought through when testing it out for two days it's quite sturdy The biggest problem in my opinions is that it skips frequently (average once a sentence) when the tip hits the paper, sometimes almost for a whole letter, irregardless of the paper I use. From my moleskines, to the cheap printer paper in my office, to card stock it just keeps skipping. My Zebra didn't skip. I've tried increasing my pressure until the tip flexed and then going back to light gentle strokes and it still does it. This would be a 4 star pen if it wrote consistently but the constant skips ruin the whole experience for me. I'll keep this around because it's portable, nice to show off, and is decent for a quick jot but I would not recommend this to a friend.
	Kaweco AL Sport Fountain Pen - Fine Nib - Black Body This is my first fountain..., February 3, 2012 By chrisbroy This is my first fountain pen, and I love it. I have a dip pen at home to write at my desk but using this pen in my EDC is fantastic! I don't have the problem of the cap rattling and I don't mind the scratches and nicks in the paint. I actually really like the look I have now with the scratches. I get compliments all the time and I'm always asked where I got such a fantastic looking pen. Everyone thinks I spent hundreds in a vintage shop. Looks aside, I was looking for a pen I could carry that writes like my dip pen and this one is even better than I hoped. I know there are more expensive, and cheaper, but for the price point, quality, and all around usefulness, this pen can't be beat. I'm going to try the extra fine nib next but I doubt it will write as smooth.
	Pilot Prera Fountain Pen - Medium Nib - White Body Wonderful little pen!..., February 3, 2012 By pictogramax Wonderful little pen! Smooth writer, well made, great click-closing. A converter can be used, it's easy to dismantle and clean and even the nibs can be exchanged with 78G and Penmanship, if you happen to have those. Works without problems but Penmanship is a better match (as 78G has gold plated nib). On top of all that functionality, Prera is a beautiful pen, at least to me it is. My daily writer.
	Rotring Tikky 3 in 1 2 Color Ballpoint Multi Pen + 0.5 mm Pencil - Black Body Pen looks and feels great...., February 3, 2012 By jgsketch22 Pen looks and feels great. My only problem I cant control the selections of the Pencil, BLK ink, or Red ink. I click and it does not always give me what I want.
	Tombow OnBook Clip Friendly Ballpoint Pen - 0.7 mm - Cocoa Brown Body I do like the pen color,..., February 3, 2012 By evg... I do like the pen color, feel and the way it writes. I also ordered a blue refill since I only like blue ink but i can't seem to change it. I tried pulling it apart but it was a struggle and now i can't seem to put it back. I am really upset and waiting for customer service to contact me.
	Stabilo Point 88 Fineliner Marker Pen - 0.4 mm - 20 Color Set - Wallet I had been using the..., February 3, 2012 By vietphoo I had been using the Staedtler triplus fineliners for about two years now, but my pens were running low on ink and I thought I'd time I replace them. Unfortunately the Staedtler had risen in price since I had last bought them and I thought I'd switch to something a little cheaper. The Stabilo Fineliners are much more vibrant in colors than the Staedtlers. However, I found that the Stabilos bled through any type of paper I would write on. So anyone who (likes to save trees) likes to write on the back of the paper, this is not the pen for you. Anyone else looking for a nice vibrant colors, go for it! As for me, when I run out of ink, I think I'll be going back to the Staedtlers =\
	Pentel Graph 600 Drafting Pencil - 0.3 mm - Navy Blue Body Before I received this..., February 2, 2012 By les... Before I received this pencil, my go-to pencil was the GraphGear 500 (0.5mm). I'll still keep that pencil in my case for back up, but this new one is way better in my opinion. I prefer smaller lead and it fit my needs perfectly.
	Pentel Hi-Polymer Eraser Pray for Japan - Black Exactly like the Ain..., February 2, 2012 By les... Exactly like the Ain series of erasers by Pentel, but with that feel good feeling that your small contribution will help out Japan.
	Tachikawa Linemarker A.T Sketch Pen - 0.3 mm I used this pen on and..., February 2, 2012 By cgl... I used this pen on and off for one week. Then it dried up and stopped working all together. I have tried cleaning it. I've made sure that the ink cartridge was flowing and secured tightly. But nothing worked. It's been more then two months and the pen still doesn't work. I would love to hear suggestions to fix this, for myself and for other people who are thinking of buying this pen. It was a great pen while it worked.
	Uni-ball Color Pencil Lead - 0.5 mm - Green good lead, if you're..., February 2, 2012 By memoryanemone good lead, if you're wanting to use it for color coding. I would not use it for drawing, as the lead is very light. I used this on my sketchbook and had to go over the green a couple of times to make it look dark enough. I enjoy the orange, blue and red leads a lot more. Still a great functioning lead, just too light for my taste.
	Maruman Mnemosyne Today's Act Note Pad - A6 (4.1" X 5.8") - Special Rule + Perforations - 80 Sheets - Bundle of 5 Great product! Uses mine..., February 2, 2012 By spiltz Great product! Uses mine everyday for to-do list, each projects having is own page(s) and it works perfectly! The paper is also high-quality and it is lovely to write on it with fountain pens.

	Tombow Mono Zero Eraser - 2.3 mm - Circle - Black Body Awesome time saver. ..., February 2, 2012 By yuri.o.gawdiak Awesome time saver. Instead of erasing a large block quickly or painstakingly trying to work a small area with a large eraser the Mono Zero Erase just makes it a breeze.
	Kokuyo Inkga-e Refillable Whiteboard Marker Pen - Meduim Point - Blue Perfect size, weight,..., February 2, 2012 By yuri.o.gawdiak Perfect size, weight, and balance if you do a lot of detailed whiteboard writing. Strong saturated color that flows smoothly.
	Pilot LHSRF-8C Gel Ink Pen Refill - 0.4 mm - Black Hacked it successfully..., February 2, 2012 By italimod Hacked it successfully into a Fisher Space Pen (the Astronaut variety with a clicker, although refill-wise it doesn't matter). It's a couple of millimeters too short, though, but it doesn't affect writing per se but it's hard to see the tip on paper. Truth be told, I bought this refill in attempts to hack it inside the Coleto multi-pen (due to it being considerably cheaper but virtually identical), but it wasn't possible easily enough. Writing quality and emptying speed are practically the same also.
	Nomadic PE-09 Flap Type Pencil Case - Navy I was worried when I..., February 1, 2012 By youngjustice I was worried when I first got my package because this bag does not look like it would hold a lot, but wow...it is like the TARDIS. Each of the three pockets, the main one, the one on the flap and under the flap can hold a ton. In the main pocket I have about 10 pens and mechanical pencils, a pack of tissues, a roll of tape, a ruler, and an eraser with some room to spare. The pocket on the pouch has about 10 pens and mechanical pencils as well. And the pocket under the pouch has room for all my led, extra erasers, my sharpener and room for a lot more. It is a great bag and its large pockets allow you to carry a lot more than just pens and pencils, while having enough different compartments to keep everything organized.

	Kaweco Fountain Pen Ink Cartridge - Royal Blue - Pack of 6 I've been using the Kaweco..., February 1, 2012 By chrisbroy I've been using the Kaweco AL Sport with this ink for a few months now and I can say I'm very pleased. I use it at work and in my personal writing. I find this color very easy on the eyes, flows well, and seems to not bleed very much no matter the weight of paper I use. I have to say that this is the only color I've used with the pen but so far so good. I'll try another color soon just to see what else I like but so far so good!
	Kaweco Ice Sport Fountain Pen - Fine Nib - Pink Body I love this pen! It's..., February 1, 2012 By cai... I love this pen! It's never scratchy, has great ink flow, and is a delightfully bright color of pink. It took me a little while to get used to how short it is when posted, but the compact size makes it so much easier to stash in a pocket (I keep mine in the little MP3 player pocket on my backpack for quick and easy access). The pen writes to a standard that I've come to expect from much more expensive pens, and yet I don't have to worry if it accidentally walks off with one of my students, because it's so affordable, though I certainly will be keeping a close eye on it, as it's now my favorite writing utensil. I will be buying more in a variety of different colors so I can keep one at home, one at work, one in my purse, and one in my backpack at all times.
	Pilot Vanishing Point Fountain Pen - Fine Nib - Black Matte Body This is an edit of my..., February 1, 2012 By dianabosworth This is an edit of my previous 4 star review. After doing a bit of research and testing other VP products, the converter is indeed supposed to leave a bit of air, and is working correctly. I have been using this as my primary writting insturment for months and love it more every day. The quality is impecable. The only issue I've had was some minor (I mean just a few drops) leaking when I flew on 4 different airplanes with a full converter. I would expect this from such frequent changes in pressure, and now just put it in a plastic bag with a tissue around the nib end or empty the converter before a flight.
	Prismacolor Wooden Pencil Sharpener I'll go one further than..., February 1, 2012 By evisr8r I'll go one further than the others and say that this is the worst sharpener I've used period. This is not a pencil sharpener, It's a pencil destroyer. Purchase this if you're having trouble turning your prized artist set into a nice chunky pile of kindling for starting fires. If Jetpens lets this review stick... then maybe purchase it to help JetPens out and get it off their shelf, then see if I'm lying (I'm not).
	Zebra Sarasa Push Clip Gel Ink Pen - Metallic Colors - 1.0 mm - Shiny Purple LOVE this pen! I am..., January 31, 2012 By kae... LOVE this pen! I am very picky about pens. They have to be gel. They have to be purple. They have to be BOLD. This is one of the few that meets all three and I love, love, loved it! Very smooth, pearly looking, dries almost instantly. The only negative thing I can think of is that it didn't last very long, but most gel pens don't! I will gladly buy again, but it is out of stock! (guess that also says something about how good it is!)
