 Scratchy nib felts up the paper than clogs. Really unpleasant writing instrument. February 14, 2008
I purchased this pen from Office Max on the recommendation of a sales associate who also writes with Sheaffer pens.
It was a waste of money, the nib is dryer than a Sheaffer when uncapped and the point is too fine that it scratches the paper and starts to felt and clog.
Fountain Pen nibs have to take on the characteristics of the owner by wearing down to the writing angles over time in order to truly break in.
The problem with this concept and this pen is by the time the nib has worn down to your writing angles.... it will be nearly out of ink.
Almost like obedience training a pet with congenital amnesia.
The barrel is as comfortable as any other non gelatin grip pen.
This pen doesn't offer any design advantages compared to a more expensive or vintage pen since it also has to be carried nib up at higher atmospheres when traveling by air and the nib still spits if it is dropped.
This pen may be suitable as an emergency backup if your primary FP runs dry, or you could just carry spare ink cartridges for your primary pen.
If you're buying this pen as a starter FP for yourself or as a gift, consider the inexpensive offerings from Sheaffer such as the $25 Javelin Sheaffer Javelin Cranberry Medium Point Fountain Pen - SH-93059 or even a Parker Vector.Parker Vector Deluxe Calligraphy Kit - 35979
 Excellent disposal fountain pens January 24, 2008
I wish that some of my $300 to $500 fountain pens had a nib this smooth and easy to write with. I hate to carry an expensive fountain pen to work because someone is always asking to borrow it, and most people cannot use one correctly. Enter the Pilot Varsity. These sturdy little fountain pens have excellent nibs and, if some idiot borrows it and bangs the nib into the desk, I'm not out an arm and a leg. Comfortable and a pleasure to use.
Awesome pens January 18, 2008
I have used these pens for years. I didn't realize they had an assorted pack until I was ordering my regular black and blue ones and found these. I was thrilled! The pens run out fast if you use them regularly, but they are great and people in my office keep taking them if I let them use one.

Fountain pens are so expensive, and I find I love the fact that these are easy accessible, disposable, well made pens.
They have a good ink flow and feel good in the hand.
They should all be like this... September 18, 2007

If they were, then everybody would use fountain pens. I buy the pack with all the colors. You got your Black (which I always give away), your Blue, your Purple, Green,Pink, Red, and Turquoise.
Remember to put the cap back on before you put it in your shirt pocket....you have been warned!
