I'm one of those people who prefer ballpoints to fountain pens, oddly, and so I'm delighted by this video. I have a small collection of Retro 51 Tornado pens, but my favorite ballpoint is the Ohto needlepoint. However, that Monteverde Tool pen looks cool.
Very fidget worthy. Sounded like you were describing PenBoy. hahaha It's much easier to carry around a ball point pen than it is a fountain pen, so one might as well carry an interesting versus boring ballpoint pen. After all life is too short to write with a boring pen.
Thank U.. now I have many option for parker refill. Would you pls review all those parker cartridge style refill from each brand? Wich one has best ink, and has many nib size option?
The worst pint of a ball point pen is that the writing element (nib) is needed to be cheap and disposable, no matter how good the body is if the nib is meant to be made as cheaply as possible irrespective of takes away the magic
This is a very good video. My next comment isn’t a complaint about the video but more if a general observation. I know it’s an important selling point but sometimes it just feels wrong to emphasize that a product like pens is “made in Germany” or “made in Japan”, and especially when handmade adjective is added. It is almost racist because we know usually when it’s emphasizes where a product is made it is to tell the customer it’s not made in China and to imply that Chinese made products are necessarily better and the products made elsewhere are necessarily better.
It's racist to say where a product was made? And saying something is handmade doesn't tell you what country it's made in, unless you think every Chinese product is made in a factory? lol

I have the Lamy Pico, it’s a really handy pocket pen. Deploys quickly and writes smoothly.
plus its actually much thicker than most pens, despite it is really small, I find it very easy to use for someone with big hands
Let's have more of these ballpoint videos please!!
Does Lamy make a rollerball cartridge that would fit in the Pico? I want my Pico to be rollerball pen so bad.
I didnt expect to see anything that piqued my interest in this one, but that fisher...
This was a great episode! The Monteverde Rainbow pen is really amazing!

Neat trick with the B2P, shine a light at it from a very low angle (works best with low sun through a window) and it's shadow is a full waterbottle.
Great reviews but you did not review my Fabre Castell emotion pure black. 😂

thank you
I feel the same way. But these look pretty cool.
The lamy pico is such a great pen! I Love IT !
Pity that you have to cap the Fisher Infinium. Otherwise I would have no on this pen.
Nope, no changed mind.

Sell me this pen
The Pilot Bottle 2 Pen is a gel pen in this video. Who the hell approved this pen to be in a ballpoint pens compilation video? 🤦♂️
Tom did. Please reach out to Goldspot Pens to ask for his immediate job termination.
