Pilot Precise V5 Stick Rolling Ball Pens, Extra Fine Point, 2-Pack, Black Ink (25001)

I have used these pens for a long time and regularly give them as a gift for students that I mentor as they enter Architecture school.I prefer the V5 over the V7 as it gives you a narrower line. The pens have a good flow, and never leave any ink spots. Moderate amounts of control on line thickness by varying the pressure.Just a good quality, versatile pen. I purchased this specific product because the 2 pack was significantly cheaper per pen than the other packaging. Not sure if this is still the case.

I've been using Pilot V5 Techpoint pens for years and absolutely love them.The roller ball design allows these pens to write smoothly with very little pressure or hand fatigue making them ideal when writing for long periods of time.Being left handed I was concerned that the ink from the V5 pen would bleed into the paper, smudge or smear, but I was surprised at how little ink bleed there is from these pens and also how resilient they are to smearing. Sometimes this V5 pen will smear every so slightly but 99% of the time I can write left handed without any smearing.Note: I have also used the V7 version of this pen which does have more ink bleed and does smear noticeably more.The V5 pen writes great on thermal paper making it a favorite for cashiers, waiters and waitress just be careful not to leave it alone with your customers or you might not get it back. The hard steel needle tip on the V5 pen is also great for making carbon copies and works great for things like bank deposit slips.Unlike regular ball point pens or gel roller pens the needle tip on the Pilot V5 can bend, crack or break which can cause ink to leak out. The V5 pens can also be sensitive to changes in air pressure, so you should carry them with caution when flying as the changes in pressure can cause the ink to leak. In five years of use, I've had two pens leak, which can be messy.I was concerned that cold weather may cause the ink to freeze and affect the performance of this pen but so far I've used this pen in freezing weather and it still wrote as good or better than ball point or gel pen.One other feature I like is the convenient built in ink window which lets you see how much ink is still remaining in the penOverall for me, The Pilot V5 Techpoint is the perfect pen for me, my wife seems to like it too, since she's always borrowing it from my desk.

Las amo son mis plumas favoritas en el mundo, se escribe muy fácil y la mano casi no se me cansa. El color negro intenso y de rápido secado. Ya van varias que compro y siempre seguiré comprando me siento tan feliz.Para mí la escritura es algo tan sagrado y tan hermoso que tengo que tener buenas herramientas y sin dudas esta es una de ellas.

These Pens are fantastic for getting fine lines and easy clean up on Illustration work. I have used expensive art store pens and these trump those. I will mention that if your rough on them they will leak and break on you and that can be messy. Other than that they are a must have. I buy them in bulk in december for the new year and usually always have them on hand. I can get fine lines without bleed and bobbing. I love these pens usually the black is what i use! :)

Exactly as expected. Love this pen.
