Pilot Precise V7 RT Needle Tip
This pen gets an A. I tested the blue needle tip.
I really love this pen. I am normally not a fan of needle tips, but this one has caught my attention.
It produces an even, skip free line. The movement over paper is reasonably smooth for a needle tip. The grip is rubberized and is comfortable. The barrel length is standard. The pen styling is fairly conservative and reasonable for the office. The blue ink, which I tested, is a dark purple-blue. It gives the writing some gravitas.
The ink is watery, but the needle tip minimizes bleed through the paper. It’s a water-based ink and washed off neatly from your hands.
I do have some concerns about the durability of the needle tip. I’ll be testing it pretty vigorously, so we’ll see if those concerns are valid.
