  • The Uni-ball One P is the perfect pocket sized gel pen. Launched in early 2023, it has quickly risen to be one of the most imported Japanese stationery products of the year!

    I have this pen and I love it. They also sell this pen in a pack with a slimmer body if you dont want the chunky refillable pen. I use it in my hobonichi weeks. It is quick drying.

    • @adeline.is.sleepy
      @adeline.is.sleepy Před 5 měsíci +11

      does the ink dry fast enough for writing paragraphs? I love gel pens, but so many don't dry fast enough, so when I start a new line, I smudge the last one. the Muji 0.30mm gel pens don't do that, so they've been my go-to for years.

    • @rand0mgirly
      @rand0mgirly Před 5 měsíci +10

      @@adeline.is.sleepy Yes, it dries fast enough in my opinion. I haven't used the Muji 0.30 gel pens, so I would not be able to give a comparison. I used to use the Uniball Signo DX 0.38, and the ink would smudge all the time. I do not recommend that pen for writing paragraphs.

    If youre buying these please note that the Black ink is actually significantly smoother and thicker than dark blue/blue/ other colors. When looking at the refill, the black refill has much thinner walls too, suggesting it probably flows ink better.
