 A smooth writer and a great pen! Jan 08, 2006
By Linda
I use fountain pens everyday, so I know what I am talking about: This is a great fountain pen for everyday writing -- one that you will not care gets lost or damaged due to its very low price (unlike the average (non limited edition) fountain pens, which can cost over $100 -- and sometimes much more). The Pilot Varsity pen lays down a great fine-to-medium line of ink, and the nib (IE: the writing tip) does not dry out too fast when left uncapped -- and the pen seems to write forever with its large internal ink reservoir. Fantastic buy; and with no muss-'n-fuss of having to refill the pen either!

One of a kind fountain pens Aug 02, 2008
By F. Sayed-Ahmad
Simply put, these pens are amazing. They rival some of the best ball point pens I have ever used because they have such smooth writing. The thickness of a line is perfect and this pen provides a very consistent amount of ink (not runny). However, I would advise you to store the pen in an upright position (nib pointing up) because the other way makes slightly more ink to flow through. The ink dries up quickly and does not smear...the colors are very vivid as well. Also, I have used the pen for a while now and the ink has not runned out quickly. These pens are great for those who have expensive fountain pens but dont want to use them all the time. Plus, they get a lot of attention at school. Bottom line, these are outstanding quality and cheap pens.

Discover the Joy of writing with a Fountain Pen! Oct 19, 2006
By William L. Brady
This is a very inexpensive way to find out what fountain pens are all about. If you are not a newby but don't use FPs any longer, discover improvements made in recent years. Noodlers ink, for example, becomes permanent when it hits the fibers in paper, is water soluable in your pen. So get in there with these great disposable pens!

 Great writer - unstable ink Jan 20, 2010
By umtox
Love the feel of the pen, writes great, and the ink looks impressive. It is indeed a true fountain. However, the ink is the least stable I have ever used. It takes quite a while to dry. Do not shut the pages of whatever you are writing for a while, or you will have smudging. Even the smallest amount of moisture will cause significant bleeding and smudging. As with all fountain pens, the ink is water based, but this ink runs way more than rollerball (also water based) or gels. Balpoints use oil based ink and are more permanent - even though the writing often is terrible. Therefore, I use these pens for notes needed only in the short term - would never write a check or return address, or sign anything with this pen. The only way to avoid this with a fountain is to buy a nondisposable fountain pen and load it permanent ink (ex. Noodler's).
It is true about fountain pens - they significantly imrpove handwriting. For the first time in years, I can read everything I am writing.

These pens are refillable! Dec 16, 2008
By R. Thomas
"rosemaryreads"
I just pull out the nib - taking care to wrap the pen in an old towel first,as it will spray a teeny bit of ink - drop ink into the reservoir with a medicine dropper, then replace the nib. It is fast, easy, and actually, less messy than the refillable pens which have plungers and the like.
These pens are fantastic. They write every time - no drying out of the nib. They never leak. I just love them, and I'm ordering this set for myself because I love the colors. They write very nicely.
