uni JETSTREAM PRIME Twist Mechanism Accessory Pack 0.5mm

This refill fits all Parker Style G2 sizes. This is my FAVORITE fine-tip ink. Writes beautifully, and makes extremely even and thin lines. Great for fine details and even cross hatching. Good dark color.See attached photo. This refill made the thinner black lines (the blue lines is a different brand if y'all interested). The top thick lines with bleed off is a totally different pen refill, so don't worry.I love thin extra fine lines, especially because I like to sketch alot. So far, I have not seen a SINGLE example of bleed off or pooling of ink from this. After doing research, nearly everyone suggests this pen refill for Parker style G2.I would HIGHLY recommend this for people who either like thin lines while writing, or doing little pen sketches in a notebook. Great pen refill and in my opinion well worth the price. Will buy this whenever my ink runs out.

My job requires me to often fill out forms or write things down. Over time, I have become particular about pens as I have to use one extensively.I prefer a fine-tip pen, 0.5 mm being ideal for my purposes. The Jetstream Prime Twist refill does come in medium and larger tips as well. This is a Parker style refill so it could be used in any pen that takes a Parker refill.This Jetstream refill made by Uni-Ball(Uni?) a brand manufactured by the Mitsubishi Pencil Co. Apparently, the MPC is not affiliated in any with the Mitsubishi automotive and heavy industries conglomerate we are all familiar with despite having the same logo.The Uni brand has a good reputation for quality writing instruments.This Jetstream ink is a low viscosity oil-based ink designed to compete with gel-based inks. It claims the crisp sharpness and fast drying of a gel ink but with the smoothness, waterproofness and longevity of an oil based ink. Jetstream ink is held in high regard by Jet Pens....and they'd know.Prior to this, my absolute favorite fine-tip Parker refill has been the Ohto Flash-Dry Gel 0.5mm. It's a pleasure to write with. The best. But.....they are hard to come by and expensive to boot at $5 per refill cartridge. So...I needed a more economic alternative.How did the Jetstream Prime Twist refill stack up? I am pleased to report, it's as good or better than my beloved Ohto Flash-Dry ink. No smudges, smooth, crisp lines. It's really quite good. I was very surprised that an oil-based ink could write as nice as this.I will definitely be buying this one in the future. You won't be disappointed if you give this one a try. Five stars Uni-Ball!

I bought these refills for my 50 year old Cross pen. Big improvement over original refills from Cross. Great skip free writing and nice dark black ink. Also, dries fast which is important for a lefty.

This parker-style refill is really different than others. It's got a super fine ball point tip that is a little bit like writing with a pin. I'd describe it as a little bit scratchy. Yet, it has a lot of flow and very saturated black ink. That combination of smooth and scratchy is unlike any other pen I've written with. I like fine point pens as they clarify my writing. This also has ink which they say is a hybrid of gel and normal ball point which is exactly how it feels.I'm not a big fan of gel pens as they're too slippery for me -- they don't have a feeling of contact with the paper that I like. This is slightly like that but not so much that it annoys me. Very reliable -- does not skip.

The writing quality is excellent.The Parker style means it is compatible with lots of different pens.A great product.

Like no other ballpoint I have ever used. Really smooth but never swears, runs, etc.

This Parker G2 cartridge is absolutely fantastic. It just works and doesn't have hiccups, laying down the ink. It quickly dries. It just performs. The ink line is very clean and even. The only negative is that if you have unsteady hands, you may need the grippier feel of a regular ballpoint. Regular ballpoint inks are bashed for a dragging feel, but if you have unsteady hands, hybrids and gels will cause your hand shakes to be more visible in your writing. So for some, gliding smooth inks are always a win. This ink does everything it sets out to do. If you use a highlight and want a smoother ink, this is a very good option.

It might just be my imagination, however these seem to be even better than the sxr-07 refills. At around triple the price though,I guessThese should be better. Does this have less ink than the sxr-07. Anyone here have a link to tests on these as far as how long the refill will write. Of course the sxr-07 is a different form factor, so it is usable in other pens.
