I’ve mentioned before that I’m not gifted with the lightest of touches when it comes to writing. When I read that the Uni-ball Vision needle
UB-187 apparently has an almost unbreakable tip it was like music to my ears.
If you prefer to write a finer line then the Pilot V Ball 0.5 may be for you. A liquid ink rollerball that writes a 0.3mm line. This stick pen is available with light blue, red, green, black, blue, pink or last but not least violet ink, which is the colour I’ve chosen to review.
I’ve yet to come across a ballpoint pen to get excited about, nevertheless they remain a popular choice with many. Undoubtedly they have come a long way since inventors finally cracked the problems with ink leaking & clogging, all those years ago.
Following my initial research on a Pilot G Tec C 0.25mm that the Pen Warrior had given me to review, I soon realised that I was likely to have a challenge on my hands. Reading that this hyper fine rollerball was more suited to the light touch of an artist than a heavy handed scribbler like myself left me wondering how I’d fare in this task.
I’ve written before about my preference for a medium nib, that said the Uni-Ball UB155 Micro Deluxe is a pen that could prove to be an exception to the rule should I need to cram a lot of text into a small space.
