Pros & Cons

Pros

Violet ink is perfect for grading or accenting my journaling. This pen is refillable and refills are decently priced. The ink is magic. There's just no other explanation as to how the ink dries so fast and doesn't smudge!

The pentel energel line writes fluidity with no skipping. Written with it on thousands of charts. Smooth and doesn't blob on the paper.

The ink leaks so bad that i have finally been forced to buy a different brand. As quick as i put a new one in, it leaks! They need to create a leak-proof refill for the pen.

It's very obnoxious and basically unusable.

I already have 2 of these—superior to the hundred dollar + plastic pen (fill in the blank) i own.
