Precise V5 Stick, Extra Fine Point (0.5mm) Black Ink Pens, 4-Pack

I love this style of tip for writing with a pen. I've been using Pilot G2 gels for the better part of a decade but these have become my new favorite. Super smooth writing, bold dark ink that doesn't smear, precise tip. I usually like a bold or fine so I got these but honestly they write bolder and thicker than expected, which is great for general purpose. I am going to try the extra fine for small note taking and flash card making. Got the multi colored set in extra fine on the way. If I buy the regular black again I may try the refillable retractable ones with this type of tip. Over all very happy with the pens and the price. I'd could say definitely would purchase again but I already have but still I will end up with more of these v5s and v7s with the precision metal tip. They just write so well for some reason. I thought I was spoiled on the G2s. Glad I gave these a try.

Listen, I been buying these pilot V5 pens since 1988 when I picked one up for the first time. Since then, these are the only pens I buy. Period. One could argue that there are in fact better writing pens out there. But, this is the pen I have grown to love, gotten use to using, and know exactly what to expect. They are perfect for me. And even though my hands are aging, these pens do not. Do I get a leaky one every once in a while? Yep! Do I care? Nope! Cause these are still my favorite. In every bag of chips there will always be that one burnt over cooked chip. I’m not going to change my favorite chip brand because that one chip in the bag. I love the design of the fine needle tip and the clear visuals on the body. You always know exactly how much ink you have left, without that surprise of an empty pen. You can get these with many different colors. And no matter what color you choose, they always write very smooth. The flow of ink and the needle tip is perfect for those of us that prefer writing very tiny. I find these pens dependable, and when something is dependable, it’s durability is never a question. I hear people say how they have managed to bend the needle tip, on these pens, but unless they are writing with bricks tied around their hands, dropping the pen on the concrete without the cap, or sitting down on this in your back pocket…. I just can’t see how they could manage to be so heavy handed. And to be quite honest here, I have never in 37 years of using these, have I ever bent one of the needles. Maybe those people should just stick to crayons. Could I give you a number on how many of these I have used throughout the years? No! Easily in the high hundreds? A thousand? I don’t know. Could I imagine them being better in some ways? Definitely. These aren’t made to be refilled, and even though it is possible to do it, they just aren’t designed for it. I would love to be able to unscrew the tip off easily and refill it. I also wouldn’t mind seeing a completely clear version of the V5 without all the body paint. I did find another Japanese brand that makes a clone version of the V5 in a completely clear body and it was beautiful, but I just can’t turn my back on this original. Maybe one day Pilot will release a clear refillable version in my honor. We will call it the (Memorial V5). If you work for “Pilot” please pass the word. But until that day comes, this regular V5 will always be close at hand. Now did I need to write this review? No. Do I feel it will sway anybody’s opinion on this pen? Probably not. But I hope it helps somebody that may have never used one and wants to know just how nice these are to use. The V5 is an icon in my home. And it might just become one in yours. Just don’t ask to borrow mine.

I absolutely love these pens. They write so smooth and bright. They have definitely inspired me to write more. It was definitely value for my money.

They are brand new to me today; I'll give them 5 stars for now. - I've been using Precise V5 since I was a baby...no wait...maybe 10 years or 7. Love them, but failing eyesight needs wider ink so I'm trying 0.7s for the first time in my life. It's going to take time to adjust to seeing what I'm writing. I also just bought the never used Sharpie S-Gel 0.7. They're pretty close. Width: Precise V7: Very slightly narrower Width: Sharpie S-Gel V7: Very slightly wider Durability: Probably Sharpie S-Gel V7. Solid outer body. Durability: A negative for Precise V5 (I'm guessing V7 also): Burst open & leak when handles after flying high altitude. Flow from Start: Important bonus for Precise V7. A good start is critical in writing. No disruption, go. Flow from Start: Sharpie: Mine often lags in ink flow at start (dry ball?) ... Writing fiction I want to dive in, not take the stairs. Feel: For me Precise V7 puts the icing on the cake (no I wouldn't put that in my fictional work). It flows. Feel: The Sharpie S-Gel's V7 is a great pen, but ballpoint pens greatly interrupt and lag behind my mind. I give a decided preference to the Pilot V7. It starts flowing immediately and feels smooth and free as it goes along with my mind. However I've had several Pilot 0.5s start leaking from high altitude flying.

great pens, great writting

Nice pens for the price. Ink flows smoothly and writes nice

pilot pens are excellent and in my experience very unlikely to leak. I like the appearance of the writing and the absence of ink stains on my shirt pockets. I prefer the V7 point size. V5 second choice (finer line).

The Pilot Precise V5 Capped Liquid Ink Pens are fantastic! The extra fine 0.5 mm point makes writing crisp, clean, and precise — perfect for detailed notes, journaling, or professional work. The liquid ink flows smoothly without skipping, and the black color is bold and consistent. I love that the pens feel comfortable in the hand and are easy to control for long writing sessions. Having a pack of 4 is also convenient — I always have a spare ready when I need it. These pens combine quality, reliability, and smooth writing in one.

Great item,great service.

There was once a time when man simoly used rocks or charcoal tipped wood to inscribe messages to each other. Then can the modern invention of the pencil, that was splendid too. Then came the pen and from it a great plethora of innovation occured. This pen, that I thus review is the pinnacle of such achievement. A smooth design, meant to be handled by even the most supple of hands. Is the culmination of a thousand mens efforts and ingenuity. The ink flows like the silver words of a poet, or the never ending mead of the gods. The writing fine and classy like an early, late Audrey Hepburn (r.i.p). And that's just the review of ONE pen, there's four of thes motherfu€ker$, that's pandemic bargain bliss. That's idk- five months of the most blissful writing you could fathom + 10. If only every pen worked as hard and thoroughly as this pen. We'd never need pen diversity again. Seriously, buy them- they're pretty great. (And cheap too)

Excellent produit…
