PILOTFriXion Ball Slim 038 Retractable Erasable Gel Ink Pen, Extra Fine Point 0.38mm, Black/Blue/Red Inks, 3 Pens & 6 Refills Value Set

I bought the blue once before, and I LOVE FriXion pen!I personally like how slim (0.38mm) it is because my hand writing is pretty small. After comparing the price, I found this one is the best deal and I like there are 3 colors in it.

These pens are quite consistent. I like how the ink stays strong even when it runs low though it does run out pretty fast. I’ve used these pens all school year and have replaced the ink at least seven times (though I do write a lot). The grip isn’t great, I find my thumb cramping and calluses developing on my middle finger but that might just be because of the way I write. The eraser is good!! I would use this on stronger paper cuz it can cause some pilling, but for someone who likes to write with pens + also makes a lot of mistakes, this is great.

The bought three pen sizes .7mm, .5mm and .3mm.I love using the point .38mm size in my Genki Japanese textbook which has nice paper. The pen initially writes smoothly and it doesn't use a lot of ink and erases cleanly. After, erasering, the pen ink does not write as smooth over an erased area but it's not an issue. I retrace the area and writing is okay.The .7mm and .5mm are better on writing paper. Copier paper is really not meant for writing on because I believe there's a heat activated coating made to absorb printer ink. While regular ballpoint / pens write just fine on copier, believe these reraseble pens pens are senative to copier paper. Sometimes I get nice results writing on copier paper using the .7mm and .5mm pens, but if I need to erase, writing over the erased areas sometimes don't give me good results; using a .5mm pen or .7mm pen on an erased area the second time works al little better on copier paper. I think results are based on the type of copier paper used. I use HP 92 and 100 brightness.My four-star rating is because I can't figure out how to replace my refill. The pen doesn't seem to twist open at least I can't twist pen open. More pictures / instructions, please. If the pens are not refillable, the refills will fit my .38mm multicolor pin I didn't waste my money.

Excellent fine point one. Love it for underlining and journaling. Love the erasing feature!

I originally started using FiXion pens for use with my Rocketbook notebooks. That works great, where I use the 0.5mm point pens. On the recommendations of user in a discussion group on Facebook, I started using FriXion pens with my Franklin Planner paper planning system. Work's great!The 0.5mm point pens produced too thick a line writing in the limited space of my paper planner. Then I found these 0.38mm pens and refills. Excellent! The look of ink, but still erasable. In my planner, I use the black, red, blue, and green ink colors. A perfect solution.

These are great for lists and notes that I make everyday. I do wish I could get all three pens and all refills in just one color that isn't just black, but I'll take erasable .38 pens any way I can.

Used this pen for a training conference. Loved the fine point and small size, but after four sessions one day and three sessions the next day the pen was empty. The small size just means there's not much ink. It does come with refills, but ultimately the cost of ink makes it not worth the trouble to me. I just returned it.

Really like how thin and still high tinted these pens are. Plus if I make a mistake I can erase it.Thank you.
