A co-worker introduced me to Pilot Razor Point pens a couple of years ago, and I instantly fell in love.

I am a scientist, so I spend lots of time writing in notebooks, and I need a pen that is comfortable to use and writes evenly.

I like these pens because the ink dries VERY quickly. I find it hard to smear at all unless I'm trying. Also, the ink goes on very evenly, which is not the case with most pens that I use.

I like the feel of the pen on the paper, and the fine tip allows for thin lines.

These are the only pens that I actively seek out and hide from my co-workers! Great buy for the money.

I have bought many of these Pilot Razor Point Extra Fine Pens and used them ever since they came out about 4 years ago. I really like the size and feel in my hand and how they nest down in my shirt pocket without sticking up very far. However...they don't clip in you pocket very well. Mine were always falling out so I finally started putting a small piece of double stick tape under the clip. This worked good enough.

The ink in the pen is a liquid. You do not want to fly with this pen. The pressure change in the cabins is too much for it. I don't know how many times I would be making notes while sitting on a flight and look down and see ink on my pants or shirt and get to looking and discover that ink was all over my fingers and thus on my clothes. Or start to write and as soon as the tip of my pen touched the paper, ink gushed out because of the pressure inside the pen. At first I was hoping that this was one defective pen. But not so. All the pens are like this. I have banned them from all my travel bags and really don't buy them anymore.

Another point, good and bad, is that they put a lot of ink on the paper. I like this when I am using a porous paper like standard school notebook paper or something similar. However if you are making notes on a very tight weave paper, like vellum or tracing paper or the restaurant charge card receipt, the ink lays on top for a few seconds before it dries. This becomes a smear rather easily if your hand brushes over it.

I was hoping Pilot would improve this pen and I think that is why I have tolerated it for years but it seems they have not.

I love these pens!! I have had this set (and its original case) for many years; I took them everywhere I went and hid them from everyone! The colors are bright, vivid, and the color choices are great when you need more than your basic red, blue and green. The light blue is very crisp, clear and has ample pigment to show up on the paper...it's my favorite color. This set was always my first choice when I needed a colored pen. I've used them to color code my calendar, file folders, special notes and projects. The fine point tip is great for writing in my tiny calendar, but heavy handed writers may want another product...the tips are felt so they will bend with too much pressure. That said I had this set for at least five to seven years before my 7 year old daugther squashed my green tip and it didn't do well after that. A great value for the money, especially since the ink lasts so long. One note on care: Don't leave them in the heat of your car...I would still have mine, but I think the heat expanded the ink inside and they began to leak terribly--operator error killed the pens. LOL.

Honest reviews on Pilot V Razor Point Liquid Ink Marker Pens, Extra Fine Point

I'm an author. I fill up pads and pads and pads with notes. My writing implements are extremely important. These markers require the perfect amount of pressure, and leave the most satisfying amount of ink on the page. My hand and arm rarely wearies with them. I have tried every fine tip marker and gel pen on the market and am sorry for what I did. I will never love another pen again. Please take me back. Please.

PS for an ink pen my one and only is the Papermate Profile 1.4B, but don't make me choose between the two. Didn't you read 'Sophie's Choice?'

I like very fine writing pens because I often make small annotations, draft technical diagrams and ink sketches for which I need a very fine, smooth line and ink that doesn't bleed. That being said, these Pilot Razor Point Liquid Ink Porous Point Pens write smooth but the point, to me, is too thick to be considered a razor point. I draws lines that are about the width of a regular ball point. I bought the 12 pack but ended up giving them all away, my co-workers like them just fine so they're functional pens. I did keep one for thicker lines and fills, just don't buy them expecting a very fine point.

I just recently started acquiring a hoard of nestabilities dies, and this was I'm not sure which number added to my collection of them. This is one of my favorite shapes, because it has a lovely old fashioned appeal to it. It looks good layered, as a tag or even as a card front (so it does have many uses). It looks gorgeous embossed and it works very well in my Sizzix Big Shot machine. To be quite honest, I really feel these might be easier to use for people with the big shot or the grand calibur machine, because the embossing of these shapes does exert a lot of pressure on the plates (a lot of people have said they got their Cuttlebug C plates broken doing so). I have to add that for people using the big shot machine, I read the nestabilities sandwich instruction booklet for embossing that came with these and I almost snapped my plates and messed up my machine; on the guide it says to trifold a piece of cardstock, and for my machine that was way too much pressure. I have found that folding a piece of somewhat heavyweight cardstock in half does the job for me perfectly well. I did read however, that everyone's machine is slightly different so whatever takes me two sheets, might truly take someone 3-5.

Reviews of Royal & Langnickel Paint Your Own Masterpiece Painting Set

Customer Ratings:

I purchased this with some apprehension, as any painter knows there is a large range of quality in any painting supplies, from extremely poor to excellent. I am now happy to say it is a great buy. It is not what you would consider to be premium quality, but certainly not poor quality either. It terms of value for the price, I was pleasantly surprised. More than reasonable cost for everything that is included. Everything I needed is included, instructions are easy to follow are detailed, and final painting is lovely. The project is suitable for any painting skill level. I did use different brushes than the ones provided, but this is a simply because of personal preference, not any problem with the brushes that are included.

I recently used it for a light jersey knit cotton fabric to hem the neckline and armholes of a childen's size tank top t-shirt. It's a little tricky to use, but one you get the hang of it it looks really good. For good instruction on how to master this foot go to threadsmagazine(com) and search for "Mastering the Narrow Hemmer". It's a 3-part series. I am very pleased with the many feet I have bought from Distinctive through Amazon (Sold by Mr. Vac & Mrs. Sew ). Enjoy!

Liked the idea of sewing my own rolled hems. However it did not have much instruction with it.. Played with it for several days before getting it to do what I wanted. Good product. Long wearing metal. Needs more instruction. Check Janome website or get Janome book on using presser feet.

I bought this (and the brother narrow hem foot which is the same thing so stay away from that too imo)and tried to use it on anything. It will only work on lightweight fabrics and even then the stitching is hard to look uniform. The stitches look wonky and the hem is incredibly small (5mm or less). I decided to just go for it and get the "distinctive" rolled hem foot set which has seven different and USEFUL sized hems (like 1/4" and 5/8", etc.)and give you a chance to keep those hems clean and professional looking. It is $50 for the set, but i am so much happier to have hemming feet that actually work!

Works great with my Babylock DenimPro (circa 1994?), on several fabrics (even flannel) and using zig-zag. Didn't work on straight stitch since I can't position the needle on my machine to far left or far right, center only, which causes the stitch to miss the roll entirely -but that's a problem with my machine, not the foot.

Delivery was lightning fast, and the product was exactly as advertised. Thanks!
