They are perfect for sketching. My daughter love these pens. I should order a dozen next time. Well-priced. Highly recommended. I just hope shipping doesn't cost so much for these small items.

This pen is awesome. Especially for extensive notes or writing. No pain, and a smooth flow but without losing the kinesthetic beauty of writing on a piece of paper with a pen. Just enough friction so that you kno the pen is on the paper. Also, the lines can be thick or thin as you wish, depending on the angle of the pen. I highly recommend this pen.

I bought a couple of these about two weeks ago thinking it might be a fun little addition to my sketch pens. Well, I was wrong. The nib on this thing is rather hard to discribe, but it's an unusual thin strip of plastic that (I assume) is trying to mimic the feel of a ink nib. It does so with decent success, allowing some line variation depending on pressure applied. And honestly, this pen would be great if they could fix it's one huge flaw: a tendancey to spit out ink unless you are extremely careful. This problem could be at least partially excused if it wasn't for the fact that it's a SKETCH PEN! I don't want to be careful when I'm sketching, I want to be light and loose. Also, the ink is pretty thin and watery. Anyway you're better off just getting a 08 Sakura Micron. It's not exactly the same, but you get a higher quality pen that can be used for both sketching and finished works and with a little practice, you can get some pretty good line variation.

This is not a bad pen for what it is. It's black. It's fine tipped. You can detail with it. However, it is not anywhere even remotely close to being waterproof - and thusly, pretty useless to me. I used it to do some fine detail work on a pen & ink/watercolor piece I was working on. The watercolor got near it, and the whole area and that surrounding where I used the pen ran from here to the other side of the world. It bleeds and runs BADly. But, if you just need it to doodle with and nothing else on humidity-free, completely dry media, I am sure it's fantastic.Won't be making this mistake again. At least the pen itself was inexpensive. The piece I now have to start over on is a completely different story. Be warned.

This is a great pen, in the past I used some different pen. The features with this pen is more better than any other that I use too.

I like how I can draw with this pen and make thin or thick lines. I like Pentel! I especially like writing with this pen too.

Please keep these coming! They are the best ever. Most pens don't feel this artistic yet functional for business. Thanks!

This is my favorite pen to doodle/draw with. The ink does not bleed. They are just a nice pen.I should have ordered more.

and don't have a budget anywhere near large enough to compete with their desire for pens, I definitely suggest it. Yes, in certain angles the nib will spit ink at you, and maybe for those who don't have to take 30 minutes to make more than 7 lines on their sketches alone, much less a final copy, this pen is impractical. However, I would like to note that if it's just a sketch, one shouldn't mind the flair of a little ink splattering. Yeah, it does take a little time to figure out how to work it, but all that needs to be known is that if you look at the nib, there are certain spots where the ink is thicker, and certain spots where it's almost non-existent. Depending on where you apply pressure, you can get anywhere from a very thin (close to a 0.1mm line) to a moderately thick (I'd say 0.7-9mm line.) Just have fun with it, I know I did. And I LOVE writing with it, it gives an extra layer of nuance to your handwriting. (or maybe that's just me, as I have terrible handwriting.) I've yet to try the tradio line, although I'm excited at the possibility of a more permanent version of my favorite pen, and of course, the other colors. Personally, I love this pen, out of the measly collection of 200 or so pens me and my girlfriend have managed to beg, borrow, steal or find, It just takes the cake for me. I'd suggest buying it, I mean come on, Disposable, not a bad price tag, and you can adjust the width for personal or scholastic note taking, doodling, and of course, sketching, as long as you don't mind taking a little time to find the tricky spots.

I picked one of these things up recently to try out. It's surprisingly lovely to use. The feel is somewhere between a steel nib and a felt-tip marker. There's a bit of give to it, so it will go hairbreadth fine to around 1mm without excessive pressure. The fun is that because of the nib structure it has some of the linear flex of a steel nib, so I can get a very nice dancing line-quality with it. I've been using Microns and other fineline pens for years , but they are joyless things. The Stylo does everything that 3 weights of Micron can and with a lot more fun.I have no idea how the ink ages, so that's a caveat at this stage.I'm gonna buy a box of these things.Recommended.
