Pentel Fude Brush Pen, Medium (XFL2L)

This is a very robust feeling product and the ink flow and colour is really excellent. You do need to be careful though if you’re a first-time user like me, as when you release the ring that blocks the ink flow, it can come out fast! I got the medium-sized brush and it’s really difficult as a novice to use it for the size of average handwriting (if you know what I mean). It requires practice to be able to write at a normal handwriting size but if that’s what you’re determined to be able to do, you’ll do it. The characters look lovely in this ink and the brush is really good for the dynamics between thick and thin strokes. Enjoy writing your 汉子! 👍🙂

Bought this for my girlfriend as she really wanted a brush pen to do pencil-less sketching and ink drawings (Now she is using it for inktober). The pen took a while to get here but it is from Japan so that was to be expected, however the tracking was kept up to date and it arrived when it said it would. The pen is easy to use after a bit of practice with controlling lines and pressure but once you get the hand of it, it is an amazing tool to have.

The ink is deep and black, and you can control the flow rate yourself both by how hard you press and how hard you squeeze. The brush tip is excellent quality and can be reformed if distressed. Only problem I’ve encountered is that I wasn’t able to remove the red ring before use. Im not entirely sure what the ring does, because it appears I’ve popped whatever seal was in place trying to unscrew the cartridge to remove the ring, and now ink is flowing anyway. It doesnt work amazingly well, presumably because I still have the red ring in place, but I dont really have any choice but to use all the ink up before attempting to remove it again, lest I get ink everywhere. Pretty disappointing first use because of that. Its not fancy looking, its all function and has a cheaper plastic feel, but I’ve used many brush pens before, and the brush itself is the highest quality I’ve ever used. So while it hasn't been the greatest of experiences so far, Im looking forward to the refill to get it working correctly

Great little brush/pen - did exactly what I wanted and a super quick go to when the creative moment arrives without having to prepare inks and brushes - love it

The pen comes with a brush of perfect size for small characters writing. The synthetic bristle is still not as good as the real animal bristle on a traditional Chinese brush pen, however if taking the portability / ease of maintenance into consideration, I am perfectly happy with this pen. Will buy more when my current ones run out.

smooth and dark ink, great for on the go sketches

If your a beginner at calligraphy like me, these are the BEST penst to get!!!!

Disappointed, not good, ink looks grey and not black, and doesn't seems to be good ink. Got a good one in the past and you can see on the picture on the left that's what you get with this one, my old one much better. Won't buy again!

しなやかで小さい文字が書きやすいです。

I received the pen the day after I ordered it and it was all I expected it to be. Delighted

Perfect medium brush pen! Totally awesome for calligraphy.

Pentel in bu brush kalemini çizim yapanlardan görüp denemek istedim .Bahsedildiği gibi bütün özellikleri çok güzel. Fırçanın ucu çok yumuşak, en ince çizgiden en kalina kadar kullanılıyor. Kalemi kullanmaya başlamadan aradaki kırmızı halkayı çıkarıp hafifçe bastırınca mürekkebi çıkmaya başlıyor. Plastik bir gövdesi var ben bunu ilk başta yadirgadim açıkçası ama kullanımı olumsuz etkilemiyor. Mürekkep rengi de gayet simsiyah.Bitince nasil kullanilacagi ile ilgili hic bir bilgim yok bu arada, ogrenirsem guncelleme yapacagim .

can go as thin or as thick as i want to , can make a nice hair texture if u do quick strokes , over all really good brush pen , dries quickly (depends on the paper)and really good for filling black in large spaces
