Koh-I-Noor3165SP7P Rapidograph Pen and Ink Set7 Assorted Pen Nibs and 0.75 oz. Bottle of Ultradraw

Rapidograph pens are some of the BEST pens you could possibly use, especially if you're frustrated with having to spend $5 on a new pen every week because the ink ran out or faded. They are also good for people who like nib pens but hate how tempermental they are in producing lines without releasing all of their ink in the same stroke. These pens can be put through hell and will not break, and are very easy to clean. The downside to them though, is that if you ever, EVER shake them, the ink well will build up pressure and cause the pen to leak. It will not affect the line in any way, but you will get ink all over you hands until you open the pen up and clean it out, which isn't a big deal at all. In the long run, these pens end up being cheaper than using, say... Microns... if you do a lot of inking, as you will pretty much never have to get a new pen, and just buy a new bottle of ink once a year or something. There's a LOT of ink in each bottle, which is great because it means it will take a lot of use before it's all used up. The ink itself is great because it is very dark and remains an even tone, and it dries really quickly, meaning that smudging never happens! There is also a fantastic range of thick to thin in this set, which makes both detailing and filling a hassle-free endeavor. I think that's pretty much everything.Trust me, these are the best pens you will ever use. Ever.

I am an artist and I bought these pens to do fine line drawings. I was using a lot of micron pens and they get really expensive. Make sure you ask the seller which size set it is, as there is one set with slightly larger point sizes and one that goes all the way down to 0.13 mm or something! That is just finer than any pen on the market. These pens are picky because of the way you need to care for them. But if you love drawing and you love the pens, you will take care of them and they will stay perfect. You have to clean them when not in use. I bought the Pen Cleaning Kit that comes with a pressure bulb to force the cleaning solution and hot water through the pen. It's kind of expensive but it has been crucial to the cleaning process. I have not found out yet if other inks are compatible with these pens besides the koh-i-noor black ink, but I'd love to use some colored inks. Definitely do a little research on these before using them! All in all, they last forever if you are good to them, they make beautiful lines, and I recommend this pen to anyone who loves drawing!

I've been using Koh-I-Noor rapidographs for over 20 years and, when I bought these, I was specifically searching for this product. The prices for this particular set can range to $100 more than I found them on Amazon. This is a high-quality, professional set that I use, primarily, for drawing. The tips are long-lasting with a steady ink flow. Beware of your pressure though. The nibs will, depending on the paper, cut deeply and cause a little bleed. Refilling them can also be a hassle... it's really hard to see through the clear plastic reservoir without wasting ink by dumping them out, rinsing, drying and then refilling. Overall, I'm very happy with my Rapidographs.

Had a set when I was a kid. These are just like them. Work well.

I have used these pens for 45 years and I know the disappointment of when they clog. Here's what I think the user should practice. Sometimes a person uses the pens a lot, but then puts them on the shelf for months or years. If you don't plan to use the pens, unload the ink and fill the pens with distilled water. Don't reload the pens with old ink if you suspect that it is old. Also, when in active use, you can fill the caps with water before screwing the pens closed and then keep them upside down in a glass or mug. Of course, the smaller gauge pens are more prone to clogging, but they are usually the same pens I use frequently. Also - when you decide on your favorite pen gauge, it might be better to just buy either another pen for a secondary color. I have made these pens gifts to family members for a long time. They are always grateful.

This is a sturdy product. Well packaged, with plastic wrap and hard plastic case, the set invites one to use it. I felt very pleased when I received the product.The pen holder and cap are made of plastic but they are made tough, for a tough use, professional level. When filled them up with ink, they are fluent in the plotting of lines. These pens are for technical setting though I use them for art work.The lines are consistent and do not have thickness variations. They however need to be kept cleaned to avoid plugging. Recommended for any stylograph of any brand. Nothing new here.On the other hand, I was not keen of the white color of the pens, I prefered dark colors, greens or blues; however, after using them a started to appreaciate it. The main reason is that the lighter color help to identify where the pen is and which is the nib thickness you are looking to swap for (the color of the ring holding the deposit is different for every nib size).The caveat of the white is they may stain permanently, not enough time to assure that but, at the same time is an advantage because you clean them up inmediatelly when dirty or stained with the ink.I've scrutinized the product, the nib, the nib holder, the screwed ring to keep the ink deposit in place, the cap clip, the case, a product well made. What was a little bit questionable was the engraving of the letters on the pen nib holders. Also, the caps have the letters not well engraved. Actually, one of them, the 0.3 mm, had it almost gone.This is a very good quality product and the price is right, competitive. I've used Koh-i-noor pens for a while and would buy more but I expect they improve on that issue of the 'lettering" of their products.Since I cannot grade them with 4.5 stars, I give 5 stars but sorry, I am a little bit picky on the appearance of such pens.

I like the way pens come in this kit. Stylish, durable, and very well made technical pens. The refillable ink bottle is a nice thing to have. I do look forward to getting the uses out of my new set for years to come. Great grab and lucky to have this kit as part of my art supply collection.

Magnifique crayons. Bien hâte de les utiliser pour prochain projet. Un artiste heureux 😀Merci encore

Bought this product for an artist friend who is highly pleased with the variety of nib sizes and the ease of use of the pens themselves.

LOVE the pens - I had one many, many, many years ago as a student. As an inveterate doodler these provide crisp, clear lines that don't run. Couldn't ask for better.
