Ohto 0.5mm Black Oil-based Ink Refill (No.895NP), for Ohto Needle Point Ballpoint Pen, × 6 Packs/total 6 pcs (Japan Import) [Komainu-Dou Original Package]

I purchased this to do ballpoint pen drawings. I love the fact that I can make very thin, light marks and build up a nice, even tone in different value ranges. I have other pens that are much darker, but this is my go-to pen for the lights ink values.The disadvantages are (1) it is so small that it is hard to hold. I end up holding so that I draw with the side of the tip like I would a graphite pencil, and that works great and is comfortable; and (2) it came with several refills but they don't fit the pen.

I use these in different pens. An incredibly refill. It is a needle point that writes very easily leaving a distinctive print. Sometimes needle can leave a difficult trace. This is dark and clear despite being a needle point

Great refils

Fit wonderfully into my Turquoise Ohto pen. Super easy to replace, and very happy to have my pen up and running again. I will buy again when I’ve gone through all of these!

Good

Didn't fit despite being linked together by amazon

Shipping took a while but I was fine with that since I wasn’t in dire need of my pen. Luckily I had some ink to last me for a few pages! I am so glad these refills are available for my Otho pen! The price for the refills are pretty reasonable. I want to reuse pens more by buying refills rather than resort to paying for new ones at $2-5 a pop. In the long run, I’m saving money and being eco friendly by not wasting so much plastic.

its a really fine point so for a heavy handed writer (like myself) it may not be the best pen tip, better for light handed writers. other than that it seems to write well
