Jetstream EDGE 0.38mm Oil-based Ballpoint Pen, Berry Pink Body (SXN100338.35)

The weighting feels nice. However the refills are hard to find in the UK. Luckily it is compatible with the more common SXR-80-38 or 05 which write similarly. The 05 does not produce a much wider line and is smoother and less blotchy.

Nothing like these pens. The point glides across paper smoothly, leaving a solidly dark line.

good

Even better than anticipated. Smooth writer!

I love the pen. I’ve ordered many of them all different color shells. I work with 18 wheelers five plus days a week and have to be outside often. So I have been looking for the perfect pen to carry that will wether all scenarios. 1. Rain this pen ink hasn’t run or smudged any of my paperwork when it rains. 2. The tip is perfect 0.28 tip ( I only use blue ink) and this pen allows me to write small in the small space on the paperwork. 3. Falling on concrete. I’ve had so many pens that have fallen one time on cement inside or the concrete outside and as soon as it does my pen no longer works ( been through tons of pens because of theirs scenario.) 4. This probably should be first but it is the reason I have bought so many in different colors. As I said I work with 18 wheelers and if a pen drops while the truck is moving you can’t bend down to pick it up. You can only hope they don’t run over the pen and destroy it. About a week after I bought and received my first one ( the white one) of these pens that exact scenario played out I dropped the pen and the truck was moving and sadly the last two trailer tires crawled over my new pen. I figured great there’s money down the drain once again. Well after the truck rolled out I bent down to get what was left of my new pen. The top part didn’t look damaged as it sat on the ground but I figured once I pick it up it’s all going to fall apart. It was a great pen while it lasted. So I picked the pen up off the ground and was surprised it didn’t fall apart at all it was perfectly intact. I thought that was great. But then figured well the body is still good but that was quite a fall and the nib probably is destroyed from the fall or the truck tires. When I got back inside to do the rest of my paperwork I tried out the pen and was amazed it still worked. The pen was not destroyed! So after that it sealed the deal and I bought one of every color they have. ( Though not the teal/ aqua one which I’d love to have but not paying 30.00 plus for it. ) 1. The only CON I have been able to find is you can not get 0.38 tip in blue ink only 0.28. The black ink from what I can find only comes in 0.38 not 0.28. 2. The other con which can be fixed is the clicker part on one of my green pens sticks. When pushed to open ink barrel tip. The clicker stays down and it takes a few tries to get it to come back up and close the pen. A minor flaw that can be fixed with a good cleaning I’m sure. It’s the only one that does it out of all of them so I bought a second one that works correctly and have my blue ink in that one and the one with clicker issues I have a black ink barrel in it. So when I ordered all my pens I saw a couple selling with blue ink for the 0.38 tip and I bought them. Only to receive them and find out it was black ink not blue that came with the pen. If you don’t care about the color ink then that’s great. This pen is right on top of my list next to the metal body Parker pens I own.

Writes so smooth with such a fine line! I absolutely love it!!!!
