Pilot, Precise V5, Capped Liquid Ink Rolling Ball Pens, Extra Fine Point 0.5 mm, Black, Pack of 4

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 narrowerWidth: Sharpie S-Gel V7: Very slightly widerDurability: 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.

These Pilot Precise V7 pens are my go-to. The liquid ink flows super smooth, and the fine 0.7 mm tip writes clean and sharp without feeling scratchy. The black ink is really dark and consistent, which makes writing feel really satisfying.Only thing to keep in mind is that because it's liquid ink, it can bleed through or feather a little on cheaper paper. On good quality paper though, it looks perfect. The pens are comfortable to hold for long writing sessions and the cap feels secure. If you like smooth, clean writing and don’t mind using better paper, these are hard to beat.

There are absolutely my favorite pens and are the ones I always buy. I have used them for years to both write and draw. I bought these particular pens, along with a journal, as a gift for a friend, to encourage him to write every day. Being creative is always easier when you have the best materials on hand.

I have been using these pens for many years. They are perfect for those who must write in small spaces, such as flow sheets or ledgers. You must give the ink a few seconds to dry before you touch or the ink will smear, but it does dry fairly quickly. They are available in in many colors, but I only use black ink. I love the extra fine point and how light they feel.

I only ever use these to finish my pencil and ink artwork. They have excellent control, smooth lines, and little to no ink bleed. They also last for ages. I will use other pens for writing or drawing if I have to but I just hate it. These pens can be a bit pricey, especially in-store, but they are WORTH EVERY PENNY!

Decent, not as good as the sharpie brand though

The Pilot Precise V5 pens with cap are an excellent option for those looking for precision and quality in their writing. Although there are cheaper alternatives, the durability and writing experience they offer justify their price. If you value fine and controlled writing, these pens will be a valuable addition to your writing equipment.

Great product.
