Pros & Cons
Pros
The pentel energel needle tip is really deep black, dries almost instantly, does not accumulate globs of ink at the tip, and writes like it's on glass. No more fighting for a good pen when signing a receipt at a restaurant.
Made in the usa and machined very well. The machining is excellent and there are almost no matchining marks. Machining finish and thread smoothness are excellent.
If you like a weighty pen, this is the one. It's heavier than a plastic pen, but it's sleek and not bulky. Good weight for pen flipping & finger spinning.
Great value for the price. Just wonderful hand feel and writes beautifully. Fantastic tool. Great pen. Great, well made pen.
Small enough to be pocketable for edc. Pen is for the edc crowd, the pen collector, and anyone looking for a bit of distinction. Not uncommon to pay 3-4 times this much for similar materials and quality.
Cons
Great writing instrument has been reduced to a too-light paperweight. See attached pics of broken pen. Apparently the area where the threads meet the pen body is too thin.
Highlights
Quality
But the quality and actual solid brass is unparalleled
I highly recommend this for someone that wants a high quality pen but isnt ready to pay the inflated bubble prices we are seeing now
The quality of this pen will compel its user to higher standards of precision creativity and authorship in general
I have tried it both with the g2
Price
This price is solid works with the g2 pilot own refills and looks amazing
Getting a us made pen like this for this price is great
Packaging/appearance
The packaging for the pen is only a plastic bag which was fine for me since i was not giving it as a gift
However for such a nice pen the packaging was was a bit disappointing being only a ziploc bag
Competitiveness
Edit this pen will fit those energel refills
Didn’t care for the g2 cartridge so i threw in a uniball jetstream

Only thing to be weary of is that when you post the cap on the back of the pen it can be a little tricky to get it on there in a pinch because of the threads being on a curved feature

There are threads at the butt of the pen to screw the cap onto it before you start writing

It is a pleasure to use so much that i am looking for excuses to use it even where an oldfashioned sms would perhaps be more efficient
