Wow... I am blown away...,
July 25, 2012
Wow... I am blown away by this pen. It is nearly flawless in every aspect. I am
left-handed and I was all over the original Jetstream pens for their smooth
writing and no smudging and then got the original 3-colour Jetstream multi-pen
about a year ago. When I saw this high-grade multi pen+pencil, I had no choice
but to order it and try it for myself. Here is the verdict.
Pros
-at 0.7 mm, the Jetstream ink is amazingly smooth and the lines are crisp
-the ink pigments are very vibrant and concentrated
-the blue is a few shades darker than average, which I really like
-matte black finish with silver accents is very clean and professional looking
-barrel width and grip are perfect and suprisingly not too large for a
5-function pen
-the different colour tabs are subtle but still bright enough to switch between
colours easily
-the pen is very top-heavy, which lets you write smoothly without applying much
pressure
-the clicking/switching mechanism is very satisfying for people who like to
obsessively click while sitting and thinking
Cons
-the grip likes to attract dust particles, but a quick wipe with a damn cloth
will clean them
-the pencil is not world-class, but is good enough for general use. I will still
use my Uni-ball Kuru Toga if I need for strictly pencil usage, like doing math
equations.
-you might be scared to show it off to your friends and co-workers because they
might steal it
