Uni Jetstream EDGE 0.28mm Oil-based Ballpoint Pen, Champagne Gold Body (SXN100328.25)

I bought this just to see how small the .28mm really writes. The tip is super tiny. It writes well and the ink glides the pen across the page. The full metal body makes it feel sturdy. I recommend this pen if you need a very small mm. This feels pretty heavy duty/

This pen writes so darn smooth and tiny! Perfect for squeezing lots of info in small spaces. I love thin smooth lines and so many pens that I have used in the past skip so I sorta expected this pen to do that, but I was pleasantly surprised! This pen has got some decent weight like it can probably cause some decent damage if thrown type of weight. Thats probably not useful info, but anyway the pen is worth the price. Buy it!

There isn't anything spectacular to be expected from this pen. Nothing makes it super special, smoother, or more refined than say something from the Dr. Grip series. However, it does what it was designed for. The extremely fine-point is akin to writing like a pencil, but not just any pencil. It is like writing with a mechanical pencils. The mm difference is even smaller than the famously 0.5mm that is still very popular today. So each stroke is extremely fine. At a distance you can barely tell if something was even written, that's how fine your lines will be. This is not a pen for regular use. This is not a pen for clerical use. It is definitely purpose-designed for specific use and that would be for where-ever fine writing is required. I can see the application of this small mm edge point being particularly useful in architectural, mathematics, engineering, and even music composition fields. If you want a pen for regular notation and scribbling, just get a Dr. Grip.

I like to write quickly with tall and thin strokes using the thinnest pens available. I think I like this pen so far, I have several other thin pens including a newly acquired Pentel Slicci 0.25mm and the cost difference between the two are substantial with the Pentel Slicci being much cheaper and equal if not better performance . I am leaning more towards the Pentel Slicci because the body is thin and helps to write more quickly and accurate, the needle point on the Pentel is more rigid and helps stabilize the stroke. I like the way the body of the pen looks and feels, although it's a little too big/bulky for how thin the pen writes. This Jetstream Edge is too expensive and doesn't seem to perform that much better in comparison to make it worth the cost. The tip feels slightly loose when writing on paper so I don't feel confident in my stroke. Sometimes the ink on the Jetstream Edge doesn't appear and simply scratches the paper, it seems sensitive to slight debris on the paper (like when I erase from a Frixion pen and attempt to write over it) - whereas the Pentel Slicci doesn't have the same issue. I've added pictures of comparison between the two pens in this review along with the other thin (and not so) that I have on hand. In order of preference, I am leaning towards Pentel Slicci 0.25mm > uni Jetstream Edge 0.28mm > uni-ball Signo RT1 0.28mm > Shinzi Monpeluche Slim Ballpoint 0.38mm > Frixion Ball slim 0.38mm.

As far as value for your money goes... This pen is ok. I had high hopes for it because I have many others by uni that I enjoy, but the construction belies the potential for quality writing in this particular pen. For starters, the most obvious: this pen frequently skips and stutters when I use it. This could secretly be a very old pen that I received - but, I have no way of testing that, so I can only assume the ink does not agree with the fineness of the nib. Somewhat less obvious, but stands out to me: The inner barrel of the pen wobbles and wiggles when I write. Combine that with lines not reaching the page, I don't feel very confident using this pen... I think it will only work ok if you write with a bit of speed, but I do not. Effectively, I have better luck getting a delicate look with a medium-tipped pen with better construction.... I don't really recommend this one based on my experience. Which is a shame, because the body of the pen is so stylish!

Produces a very thin line. It is wonderful for drawing. Not entirely water resilient but due to its very thin line , it bleeds very little if using watercolor.

I cannot believe this. I just spent ten dollars on this pen, thinking I’m splurging a little on myself. NO! This was so not worth it and I wanna cry. I’m a mom. I never buy myself anything just for me. Except the love pens. I wanted a nice pen. To start the barrel is not comfortable. The point wobbles ever so slightly. The ink is not great. It doesn’t flow well. It scrapes along the paper and midway thru the sentence it starts to drag the paper! Like when your bikes brakes lock up on you. It’s just not great. Maybe for technical drawing or drawing super fine detail. Look, I buy pens. That’s my thing. So 0.28 mm part didn’t worry me. I expected it to be fine point. That’s not the issue. Maybe it’s the oil? I’ve never had one before. But it’s not for writing. Not worth the money. And there’s no weight to the pen! It feels cheap.

Just got the pen today and so far it works great. I was a little disappointed with the color, I got the champagne gold and it looks like silver most of the time for me. I haven't had any issue with it skipping. I did notice that it wouldn't write on a card that must have had some film on it that a regular ball point had no issues with. 95% of my writing is in notebooks so I don't see that being an issue for me. I'll be curious how long it lasts since it writes so fine so it can't use too much ink.

I preferred tiny ball point as I write small. This feels like a mechanical pencil which I like.

Item delivered promptly as described. Thank you and God bless.

Me preocupaba que mucha gente decía que no tenía escritura fluida pero nada qué ver, es algo muy delgado y no siendo tinta de gel como otras plumas es sutil el trazo que deja, les recomendaría ver videos de cómo pinta si buscan algo en particular, pero a mí me gusto, el mecánismo es bueno, la sensación de escritura así como el peso frontal también, no es toda de metal como podría parecer, pero aún así se siente de muy buena calidad.

Genuinely the best pen I have ever written with. The thickness of the lines is perfect for my handwriting, and I can't stop using the darn thing. I had read a previous review that the ink in each of the cartridges is low and requires constant replacement, but I didn't really see that. With constant note-taking every day in university, it lasted a solid 1-2 months before needing a refill. My only critique is that you do need a rougher paper sometimes, with very smooth papers not accepting ink from the pen as well (though this could be user error). Overall, I'm buying another one.

見た目も良くて書き心地も最高です。 マットな光沢で高級感があります。 下重心で安定感があり持ちやすく、ジェットストリーム特有の滑らかさと速乾性でスラスラ書けます。
