UNIB6 Eye Fine Rollerball Pen - Black (Pack of 3)

A pleasure to write with. I’ve used them for years and they are a big step up from cheap ballpoints.

Great delivery

Good flowing movement

Have been using Uni Ball products for over 20 years and if you are looking for a no nonsense pen that just simply works from the first use to the last drop of ink then these are the pens for you. I write a lot on a daily basis and as a sad as what it sounds life is too short for ropey / dodgy pens that such as Bics that don't deliver the ink perfectly half of the time with breaks in the flow on the paper. The Uni Balls deliver a constant and reliable flow of ink which is fast drying limiting the potential for smudges. Never in 20 years of use have I have had one leak on me and can safely keep in a pocket, bag or case knowing I won't be risking a ink covered laptop case. As I said above these pens deliver their ink exactly the same from the first use to their last drop so no having to fight with a pen nearly out of ink to get it to work. They are also comfortable in the hand even after extended periods of continuous use. They are Japanese designed and made which in itself is a mark of quality. I am afraid that is about all I can think about to write.... but if you are like me and write a lot do yourself a favor and try these they are well worth the extra money.

Priced at £8.99 I purchased the pack of 5 Black Uni-Ball Fine Rollerball Pens in readiness for the Beechmore A5 160 Lined Pages 120GSM Notebook and the Wykeham Executive A5 402 Pages 100GSM Lined DTP Diary. The two Black books were recently purchase and they compliment each other rather well. I very much look forward to using them during 2025. The pens stainless steel nib, combined with the Tungsten Carbide Ball, creates a fine writing line, the rich black ink is fast drying, the pens write smoothly, they are comfortable to hold, are light in weight and slim in body. They are good for taking notes, daily diary entries and general writing. The ink in each pen lasts a considerably amount of time, measured in days. The pen's window allows you to see how much ink is left in the tube, so as to avoid running out of ink while writing. The type of paper, in a notebook and/or diary, matters a great deal and you should keep this in mind before you make a purchase. I have been buying and using these types of pens for decades, and have never been disappointed, with any purchase I have made.

I mean, it's everything you could want from a pack of pens. I think of a thing somewhere between 'cheese is milk' (true, but not noteworthy) and 'I'm drowning' (plausible, but you can ask too much of a pen) and decide either to write a reminder or make it the basis of a novel or, you know what? It's my pen. Maybe I'll be honest, admit to myself I'll never finish that novel and spend twenty minutes drawing a picture of a swooping eagle or an alien moon where it's still cheese crust to core but *not* made from milk (noteworthy) and make a note (told you) before remembering it's a moon I saw in a dream after eating too much cheese. It's pens. Uniball are so confident in their nailing down of pen and pen-adjacent (ink, roller-balls) technology that they'll give you five, maybe six in a pack for basically nothing because selling them one at a time would cause a backlog at the factory and probably tank the economy. A whole Suez Canal of unused ballpoints. You can't have one. You have to have six. Or five. Or however many are in this pack. Why is Amazon asking me to review pens? Why are you reading a review of pens? 'Easy to hold?' It's a pen. 'Longevity?' As much as you write with it, probably. 'Value for money?' I'm typing this. You're going to lose most of them anyway. For god's sake: buy the pens. Then think of someone you love and the reasons you love them. Think of the thing that surprised you most: the moment when, up until then, you thought you'd met every kind of person there was and then they did or said that thing, or hugged you because out of everyone they were the only one who saw you needed to be hugged, or took a chance on you - wonderful, irreplaceable you - and kissed you when you weren't ready and like a lightswitch for the soul you were 19 again and going to live forever and went to bed that night alone but when you turned the light off you grinned until it hurt and kicked the covers about and went to work the next morning feeling like you were carrying something very precious and very small in a tiny little box that you were scared to even *look* into, in case opening it even a crack would let a thousandth of the magic out. And if it hasn't happened to you yet, know that it will - just that it overwhelmingly, statistically, absolutely will happen to you; that you are wired to love and be loved like no-one else - and use one of these pens to write the letter to that person. Give it to them on a birthday or an anniversary or just at the end of one of those days that everybody has when it's all you can do to limp home and fall into bed and cry for the dreams we put too long aside. Then give them that love letter from January 2022 you wrote with a Uniball pen, before either of you knew the other existed, as proof that he or she is, in the most literal of possible senses, your dream come true. Just make sure you use a Uniball one or it won't work.

Finally found a pen that I liked to use and now continuing to buy and use them exclusively use them all the time. The uni-ball eye fine pen is one I have used for many years now and continue to love the product today. The feel across the page is fine it glides well and puts down a substantial amount of ink without the need to press onto the page at all, some people who write in cursive may find that the speed/ flick may not put down as much ink as they would like but for most hand writing styles a great all rounder. The main issue with the pen is that it can bleed quite a lot once it starts to run out and you can find that it has leaked in your hand, bag or pot when you come to pick it up which isn't ideal. However I continue to use this pen as I just simply love to write with it.

They are great for writing, vibrant and the ink flows nicely without pressure or effort. I personally love them but make sure you are using good quality paper as the ink can be seen on the other side. My pucca pad is more up to the task than my course notes as it can be seen on the pictures. My course notes are seem to be sucking the ink out of the pens; if i was to leave the tip of the pen on the paper the ink dot would get bigger and in a few seconds would mark another page on the other side. That being said this does not happen to the pucca pad i have and therefore i assume its just down to the quality of the paper being used and not the fault of the pen. I don’t know how long they will last but i assume they run out fairly quickly due to the type of ink. I would recommend them to anyone who needs to make a lot of notes and does not like to apply pressure during writing.
