5.0 out of 5 stars Couldn't DO without them! , May 14, 2005

By	Colleen Finley "macmom" (Walnut Creek, CA. United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I am an avid pen and pencil artist. I have tried several brands of pens, these being a "must have" for me. They last quite awhile, the point stays firm, and the ink does not "bleed". The smallest is .005, largest .08. My favorites are the .005 and .01, but I own all sizes and colors. I HIGHLY recommend this set to start with, but beware - once you try these, you will be hooked!

4.0 out of 5 stars A grand inking pen with many sizes to please., October 19, 2005

By	Smeequat "Ash" (Where I want to be) - See all my reviews

These were the very first inking pens I ever got, and I was shocked by how well they worked.

First off, they come in a variety of sizes, from the fairly thick .05 to the deliciously thin .005. It offers a nice range of line widths for artwork and a must-have for comic art. (And be sure to get the Brush Pen, the pen that acts like a mini-paintbrush!)

The peeve I have about Sakura Micron is that the tip of the .005 is a bit fragile and liable to bend, but considering how tiny it is, you sort of expect that.

Overall, a good pen whose sizes and alternate colors really make them stand out, but you have to be careful with the points, especially .005.

5.0 out of 5 stars the perfect feel for drawing or writing, April 3, 2007

By	Lynn Hoffman, author:The Short Course in Beer (Philadelphia) - See all my reviews (TOP 1000 REVIEWER)

the fiber points of these pens are just rough enough
to give the user a sense of the texture of the paper.
it's a bit like going back to a standard transmission
after years of driving an automatic.
the inks themselves are, like some modern poetry,
marvellously opaque. images drawn with them scan and copy
beautifully. the very smallest sizes (.05 and .1) tend to
break down with rough use, but even the slightly crushed
tips give a useful line on paper.
used for writing, they encourage a light grip that makes
for less fatigue and there's even something pleasant about
a cap that has to be removed and replaced.
