Sometimes you want a pen that does more than just write really well – you want one that’s fun to experiment and play with.
That may be the best way to describe the Artline 200 Fineliner range. These are not the kind of pens that are essential for every serious writer to have, the way maybe a good Parker is. But they’re a pleasant alternative to pull out and lighten up with once in a while.
Whether used by artists or draftsmen, the Artline Drawing System is all about precision, and that shows in every aspect of these fine markers.
There are no frills in this drawing pen: The barrel and cap are slim and straight, without contours for comfort or decorative flourishes, and the point width and ink colour are clearly indicated in large type on both to, as the company puts it, “assist with orderliness and convenience.”
My first reaction to the Pentel Oh! Gel was, “This pen is awesome.” And why not? It was comfortable to hold, looked great and wrote well.
But then I realized I already had a Pentel gel that did all that – my EnerGel Deluxe.
Have you seen the ads on YouTube and elsewhere for this new Inkless Metal Pen? The claim is that it’s a writing instrument that puts tiny particles of metal, rather than ink or graphite, down on your paper.
he Pilot Frixion is the undisputed king of erasable pens but now Uni-Ball has thrown down the gauntlet with its Uni-Ball Fanthom erasable gel pen. We have tested both pens in today’s battle of the pens to try and find out which is better.
