I bought a Kaweco Sport rollerball a few months ago and found the refill that it came with wrote well, but the line was too broad for me. It takes G2 so I picked up a fine black Quink ballpoint refill at the local office supply store and it now writes like a cheap ballpoint... :rolleyes:

 

Can anyone recommend a good g2 refill?

Will work for pens... :unsure:

Hello.

 

 A list of G2 refills.

 Although it is Japanese, it can be viewed in the translation mode of the browser.

 Tap the hyperlink to jump to the manufacturer's page etc.

 Isn't the GEL refill good? I like Parker Quink (oil-based) or water-based ballpoint pens, so I can't recommend anything …

 

 Why not search for a refill that interests you and view reviews with images?

 

 You may be wondering which one to choose ...

I'm partial to the Ohto PG-105NP Flash Dry gel, 0.5mm needle point, black only so far. JetPens stocks them in the US, and CultPens in the UK.

I use Schmidt P8120 capless rollerball refill which fits Kaweco Sport Rollerball perfect. It is a rollerball refill, about 1 cm shorter than standard European rollerball refills. Mine is 1.0 cm thick but you can get them in 0.5, 0.6 or 0.7 mm as well. For more info:

PS. It is P8120, not S8120

I've used the Monteverde shorts, I think.  Also, the aforementioned Schmidts.

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..

      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
