Read the text, don't follow what's in the picture...
Another read carefully item. Item is as described (honest) while picture is misleading. This is for one (1) pen. It will be green, not any of the other three colors shown in picture. The pen will say "erasable ink" on the side. As for erasable, there must be some trick to that as no eraser I tried (hard, soft, ink, pencil, rubber, etc.) nothing seemed to budge it at all.Pen writes great, green is a nice shade of green (though I don't normally use green for anything) so if I had bought this in a store without the shipping and waiting for delivery, this would have been an okay buy.But given the cost of the shipping from overseas, for one pen, for a feature that doesn't work, well, I can't recommend this deal.

I ordered this for my daughter school work.The ink is purple in color, we expected blue or black. The site does not state the specific color when you order it. After a few times of writing with the fountain pen it is dying too quickly and does not write smoothly anymore. Also it does not erase??

Read the description carefully and don't follow my mistake-- this is only for one pen, not four as shown in the picture. Considering it shipped from the UK, pen arrived very quickly to the US. A little disappointing that the pen came just by itself in no type of packaging, as I'm planning on giving this as a gift to someone.

Pilot V Pen (erasable).
Leon Fox...The erasable feature of the Pilot V Pen entails using liquid ink eraser. These pens are a wonderful departure from the ordinary disposable ball point pen--I bought a few at a shop in the main train station in London and was so impressed that I just ordered a complete set from Amazon.

Convenient
Exactly as currently pictured in the above stock images, these disposable fountain pens are light in hand but comfortable and really easy to work with, in my experience.They are less hassle than carrying an ink bottle or replacing ink cartridges which, I often find, take ages to flow through to the nib.I use these mainly for note taking when I am out and about and when I want to add some colour to the proceedings. The 0.58 mm nibs are not scratchy, the ink flows well & lasts a fair while depending on the task in hand and you can see the ink level on each.The ink dries quickly, and I find that there is no bleed-through on quality paper (80 gsm+).The 6 different colours come in a plastic-type pack measuring around 14 cm x 7.5 cm x 1.5 cm, not including the point of sale header, which is a handy transporter for a time.Arguably, on the expensive side, but I stock up when they are on offer!~ PILOT~ V PEN~ DISPOSABLE FOUNTAIN PEN~ PACK OF 6 ~ all different colours

Lasted a week each pen....
A great idea and wrote smoothly, even to the delight of my left handed daughter.........but, I suppose due to the nature of the ink being thin and water based, my daughters pen ran out in week in school.I never realised but obviously,when you have a regular fountain pen, you buy a lot of cartridges to keep it writing! This pen was a one cartridge wonder.... Perhaps a gel ink would last a bit longer... perhaps the makers tweaking the ink would improve it.I suggest just buy a reasonable quality fountain pen and lots of cartridges, as if you bought one a fortnight even, with that money after a year you could buy a really good refillable fountain pen.

Great Noleak Fountain Pen
This is a great fountain pen that comes already inked and ready to use. The nib, on the one I purchased, was a medium and made of steel. It writes very well, nice and smooth. Ink flow is very good and my one did not require 'working in' before ready to write - so, I could leave it for quite a while, uncap it and use it straight away. I've had no blotting or dripping. This is a very nice pen to use - they should bring it out in some different designs to make it look more up market. You get a lot of ink with it and mine haven't run out yet. They can be refilled with a bit of difficulty (see Youtube) but I haven't tried this yet.

I Like It...
An easy to use disposable, modern, fountain pen that does not need a change of ink. I would not suggest using this type of pen on thin paper because it does write quite thick like a felt pen. I found it very smooth to write with and the ink flowed nicely. If you're looking for a more refined type of writing pen then i would suggest that you pay a little bit extra. I think this is more of a note taking, shopping list kind of pen. Pilot V Pen Disposable Fountain Pen - Blue Pilot V Pen Disposable Fountain Pen - Blue

Great value and extremely convenient!
I purchased these pens a few weeks ago as a convenient way to carry a fountain pen. They certainly seem to do the trick.Pros:They don't leak - I have been carrying one around in my backpack which gets thrown around all the time for several weeks and not a sign of any leakage.They are convenient - No messing around with cartridges, refilling etc. Grab a new one and you are up and running right away, when it runs out just replace it.They are comfortable to write with - For such an affordable fountain pen, they are extremely comfortable to write with. They are certainly a great way to get started writing with a fountain pen for beginners too!Cons:Black ink not so dark - This is the designer in me being picky, but I like black ink to be REALLY black. The ink is not quite what I'd hope forMedium Nib - Again, this is personal preference more than anything, but I would have preferred a finer nib myselfOverall these are great value fountain pens and extremely convenient!

Not worth the cost
At first I was over the moon with this pen it is hard to get the right pen that you are comfortable with. However I was brought crashing down to earth after the first week no ink not a drop. Now I can understand it running out if I had used it heavily but I had not.The pen went straight in the bin a great shame I was a bought to buy more.I have no issue with the seller my pen came dead on time and very well packed.

Excellent Pens
I love these pens. I actually worry myself by how much I love these pens. I've given them five stars which implies perfection, and to be fair they are not. I don't think that they're particularly pretty pens and both the Zebra Fuente and the Bic disposable fountain pen hold more ink, while costing less. So why five stars? One, less important I always know exactly how much ink is left in the pen. Which give me a sense of safety, I know that is sad. Two, incredibly important, it writes like a dream. It doesn't skip, it doesn't hard start, it glides over the page, I feel no scratchyness or even toothyness. The writing experience is superb. IMHO this is the best disposable fountain pen on the market. I'm now trying to convince myself that I don't need to buy a lifetime supply of these right now.

Ink quality poor.
Good, cheap, and disposable elementary pen to begin practise writing with a fountain pen. However ink quality quite poor, black ink appears to turn dark green after some period of time. A good ink should keep its integrity of colour, so I have to mark this down as 3 stars overall.

a pen which produces smooth clear writing...therefore for me a pleasure to write with..
Pilot V-Pen Disposable Fountain Pen Wallet of 3 black are a set of pens I would happily recommend to all customers who like to write with a pen which produces nice even strokes. I was amazed when I received this set as the fluid pen strokes makes writing once again a pleasurable experience.Many years ago when I was at primary school we were taught to write properly with fountain pens as the nibs produces neater writing, and I still believe this is the case. Like many people I have got out of the habit therefore when I grabbed any old pen my writing would need a translator to overcome the untidiness and even found myself wondering what I actually did write down. Therefore when I seen the Pilot fountain pen advertised I decided to give them a go and I am so glad I did as now once again I am producing writing which I can read and not only that other people can read my writing mainly because of the nib as I have noticed the way the pen glides across the paper with no blotchiness etc.Pilot V-Pen Disposable Fountain Pen Wallet of 3 Black are a set of pens which I would recommend to any customer who wants a pen which works well and not only that unlike ordinary fountain pens there is no leakage of ink as there are no ink cartridges to loosen and make a mess or the ink well within the pen which are in the older style fountain pens. These pens are a nice cheap pen which works well for me and I do like the writing they produce which are the two main reasons I am recommending this set of pens as an excellent buy.

A great little fountain pen
This is a great little fountain pen, and it’s cheap! The nib is a little too broad for my preference, and so far I’ve found it to be just a little scratchy but the ink dries almost instantly. I’ve tested it with a Frixion eraser and haven’t been able to remove any ink, but that’s not why I chose this pen.I bought a 3 pack black so my 11yo daughter could try out a fountain pen, and she loves it just as much as me. My 7yo son even enjoys writing with it (after some practice).I have Arthritis in my hands and find it a little too thin for long use, but will be keeping one of the pens for myself.If you’re reading these reviews, it’s a Pilot, one of the best brands, it’s cheap, and above all it’s a great little pen - give it a try!

A great set of pens.
These write very nicely - almost no pressure is required to produce a clear amount of ink, making these much more plesant than ballpoints to write with.The colours are distinct.However, on 80gsm paper the ink goes through. Not enough to stop you writing on the other side, but enough so that you can see the other side has been written on.The pen itself is robust to survive being thrown around in a bag, but take care when taing the cap on/off - it's easy to catch the tip of the pen, potentially breaking it.Each pen lasts about a month - they hold the equivilent amount of ink to one large ink cartridge.

Fabuloso Pen
These pens write very smoothly, they never splurge ink even if shaken, unlike an expensive ink pen you don't have to worry if you lose it (sad that it may be!), if you want a very fine (detailed) mark you can even flip the nib over 180' and hey presto.The ink dries instantly on normal paper - I now have to supply my secretary with this pens or else she seems to purloin mine.

Cheap and Cheerful
In a world where few of us actually use a FountainPen any more, these disposable fountain pens arean ideal pen to have at hand when needing to signimportant documents.They do have a rather thick nib, but it has a goodink flow and whilst one review states that the inkshows through on the other side of the paper, Ifound that if I use a quality writing paper, then theseep through is absent. My only gripe is that I shouldhave liked to have had the choice of a fine or mediumnib.The word "erasable" is printed on the barrel of thepen, but it does not seem to erase with a basicschool ink eraser.Available in Black, Blue, Red and Green,I prefer the black.A cheap alternative to the old style fountain penswhich always seemed to leak into my blazer pocketand drive my mother crazy.Worth trying at this price.

Great disposable pen
I’ve used non disposable fountain pens in work for the last 8 years but with a change in role found I went days without needing to write anything leading to the non going dry. These disposable pens don’t suffer from that problem and the ink lasts a good amount of time. 4 months in and I’ve only used one pen when previously I would have used about 4 or 5 cartridges. The writing motion is smooth and allows for quick neat writing.
