uni-ballZento Gel Ink Rollerball Pens, 2 Black Medium Point Smooth Writing Pens, Colored Japanese Pens, Boho Colors

Wanted to get in on all what the hubbub was about for Zento inks. Price wise the signature edition was out of reach due to the scalping that's still going on. Been using Energel and 207+ inks for a while, which I still both love. But they do tend to bleed through cheap paper and especially the 207+ which is silky smooth tends to feather and write thicker than advertised. The Zento ink is the best of both worlds, can write buttery smooth with a hint of feedback and doesn't bleed through. A nice plus is that it is water resistant. Though take note that this ink is NOT fraud proof like the 207+ super inks, since they use a surfactant to keep the ink on the surface (hence no bleed through) and not soak through into the paper fibers.TLDR: Smooth writing ink that's #1 on my list, but DO NOT sign checks with it!

Love these pens. They quality is great and they write super nice! Love the variety of colors that are available! I usually purchase sharpie pens which I still love but will definitely be adding a few more uni ball to my collection as well.

These are my go to pens. They are smooth and dry fast. Durable as well, I may have stepped on one a couple times. Grip is smooth. Overall, the perfect pen!

These are my favorite pens. Writes so smooth and pen feels nice in my hands. Might smear a little bit if not dry enough but it’s worth it.

I’ve heard so much good reviews not only about these specific pens but the brand in general and I was not disappointed. I love the color scheme of it and ink is bold and solid black which I love so much. Highly recommend!

Smooth and pleasant writing experience. The ink is holding up. I'm a writer; I mean journaling in cursive. I've used two other pens and they are dried up and useless.

It’s a pretty good pen, officially a favorite of mine, an improvement in writing experience compared to Uni Ball’s One ink, less skipping and the flow is much nicer. Ink is less pigmented so it shows up as a dark gray and it dries slower than the One- especially on the all popular Tomoe River Paper.It’s like a more flexible & bleed resistant version of my favorite pen- the Zebra Sarasa Dry (also in 0.7mm).The shadowing on thinner paper (think 100gsm and lower) is pretty intense but a smaller tip will minimize this, go for 0.5mm if that’s a concern. The biggest flaw though?This pen completely rejects textured paper. I’ve never seen a gel pen feather so bad. The paper was only the lightly textured at that.Also haven’t seen any ink refills in this tip size sadly, only in 0.5 and 0.38mm sizes.

Love the color and smoothness of using it.
