Pigment Liner, 0.05mm, Black Ink (308-0.05)

These Staedtler sketch pens are the absolute gold standard for illustrators. They create clean lines and do not bleed when used with appropriate sketch paper. The tip holds up well even after extended use.

As a scientist working in the lab, this is the best pen to use. It dries very quickly and will not wash away with the various solvents my lab book endures. It is much lighter than I expected, but I would say that it definitely does not feel cheap. It is a bit pricey, but it is certainly worth it. If you are forgetful like me and leave the cap off, it won't dry out for 18 hours or so. I have not tested it at this length, but it was fine after I left it open for closer to 12 hours. The quick drying nature of the pen is also great for fellow left-handed people. I have always had ink on outside of my left hand because I rest my hand while writing. I have finally found a pen that is compatible with this writing method! I no longer have ink on my hand and remain looking profession throughout the work day. Amazon sells this pen in a multi size pack (.05mm-.8mm) which is great for artists, but if you are using this for writing like me, I have found that Overstock sells a 5-pack of the same size for around $20. I would definitely recommend this pen for any left handed person. I think I will stock up and use these for life.

This review is specifically for the 0.3. I use this pen primarily for bullet lists and journaling. My pen tendencies lean toward nylon tip art pens or fountain pens (both have their place, I just use them differently). I had used Sakura Pigma Microns in the past. While I loved the pen and its pitch black ink, I went through a LOT of them as their nylon nibs just did not hold up. I don't press very hard when I write, but the nylon would always end up pushed into the pen making it unusable far before the ink ran out. Not so with the Staedtlers. They are a little more expensive, but I am actually able to write with them until the ink runs out. The nylon nib holds up, they feel great in hand and the cap is fantastic. The ink is not quite as dark as the Sakura when viewed side-by-side, but you would never notice if you weren't comparing. For me, these pens are worth the premium price as they will reward you with a full service life.

This pen is great, and has the perfect thickness for what I wanted. It does bleed a tiny bit, and doesn't have perfect, clean lines. Nevertheless, it writes very well and has lasted me quite a while. Definitely reccommend.

Easy to use on the panel lines of model kits. Good value

This is a great pen, although I ordered a 0.05 tip instead of a 0.5! It works well and the texture of the barrel makes it easy to grip, while still feeling comfortable in my hand. I also purchased a set of Sakura Microperm pens, and they have a smooth barrel which I don't like as well. It's a personal preference that I didn't think much about until I had used them both extensively. I plan to order more Staedtler pens with a variety of tip sizes, only because I like the feel of them better than the Sakura Microperm pen.

I bought this pen for use in my Leuchtturm 1917 bullet journal. I needed something that wouldn't bleed through (like my Sharpies do), that would dry quickly and permanently, that had a fine, but dark line, and that wouldn't smear or "drool" like roller ball pens so often do. (I know you know exactly what I mean!) At first I wasn't a huge fan of this pen because, while it writes beautifully, the tip has some drag while I'm writing. It's not like the glide of a roller ball pen. I mind it a bit less now that I've been using it for about a week. Mostly I'm thrilled at the dark line the ink makes, and the fact that I don't have to worry about the pen "drooling" all over my page! The ink dries quickly, but you do have to wait a few seconds for it to completely dry - otherwise it might smear a bit. I also let it dry much longer before highlighting over it, or it will smear. This is a pricier pen than I usually buy, but I might be a convert. Even my boyfriend has tried to steal this pen from me. ;) He'll be getting one as a gift very soon.

I like staedtler products, but this is just an ok drawing pen. Experienced some “bleeding” of the ink. I would go with Copic Multiliner instead

スケッチ用として長年使用しています。まず１つ目のポイントとしてかすれにくさです。外でラフなスケッチ用に使うので描くスピードを重視しています。そこでこのペンは連続で描いてもかすれをおこしにくく重宝します。２つ目のポイントとしてにじみにくさです。私はこのペンで輪郭を取った後水で広げさせるタイプの色鉛筆で色づけします。その際滲むということがほとんどありません。これからも使い続けると思います。

Good product, too much writing on the pen body, makes it look not cool. Pathetic delivery by Aramex Courier, uncommitted and unclear on their deliveries.

Si quieres empezar a utilizar delineadores para dibujar, te lo recomiendo. Si te gusta escribir con detalle sin esperar a que seque la tinta como en las plumas de gel, te la recomiendo. Si ya eres un artista tradicional, seguramente ya la estás usando. Esta pluma utiliza punta de fieltro para no tener una mayor firmeza al escribir por lo que su consistencia la compararía más a la de un lapiz que a la de una pluma de gel. No he encontrado alguna desventaja.

Non mi hanno mai delusa, spedizione veloce. Il prodotto ha punta fine, io la utilizzo principalmente per disegni ma vanno bene anche nella scrittura su diari. Non trapassa i fogli a meno che non vi mettete lì a fare decine di tratti uno sopra l'altro xD . Consiglio il prodotto a chi deve disegnare/scrivere su agende. Ottimi per disegni tecnici. Io li usavo anche per disegni di figurini di Moda e per modellismo. Non mi hanno mai delusa! :-)

Habe diesen Stift für meine Malerei gekauft, kann man auch für Kunstschrift verwenden, einfach super, würde ich auf jedem Fall weiterempfehlen.
