Light ink
on July 2, 2023
Posted by: Sabino
The pens look cool but not much ink comes out. I bought 2 black and 4 blue and they all have very light ink.

I've been using the F-402
on September 7, 2016
Posted by: Jacob
I've been using the F-402 for years, and honestly its one of my favorite pens. i still have a few where the logo is located on the side, which in my opinion has a better look to it. My biggest problem is the fact that the issue with the main steel barrel has yet to be fixed. It tends to slip down and reveals the plastic under the barrel which has a type of lubricant, my guess is that its used to slip it on in the first place. When yo notice that its begun to slip just trying to force it back up isn't easy, considering the finish of the barrel and the small space to grab purchase of. one more thing is the clip, they always seem to rust. Don't get me wrong its a good pen with a positive feel to it and an actuator that rises even when the pen is in use and doest move back and forth when you tilt your hand.

Disappointed
on May 14, 2023

I don't know why but, I told a friend of mine about how great these 402 pens were and he went out and purchase a box of them. He started using them only to learn they were all dried up. That's expensive as much as it is disappointing. I won't brag about them anymore!

This pen is the reason why I only write with 0.5mm now
on March 27, 2022
Posted by: Aland
I had this pen for over 2 years. Became emotionally attached. Bought refills. Didn't even buy it, found it laying in the mud and never stopped using it until it snapped in half in my hand. Worked in below 0°F temps, on wet paper, and pretty much any surface I put it to. It never once failed to write until the cartridge was empty. Bring back 0.5mm please.

Please update f402 with wider point too scratchy.
on February 9, 2021
Posted by: Mccoy
The f402 needs a broader tip 1.0 up to 1.4 with z mulsion ink technology. please, please bring back z mulsion ink technology and put it in the f402 barrel, I agree with previous post that would be a perfect pen.

Ink shortage
on September 20, 2020
Posted by: Skinbow
I love the way these pen write but there is never enough ink in them. It's like is a 2 week trial size in it. After 2 weeks I have to buy new ones cause where I buy these they NEVER have the refills for them. These pens are not cheap just to use for two weeks and add to the junk drawer. I give it a 2 star rating but would be a 5 star if they lasted longer. I'd recommend this to a friend if it lasted longer

the barrel is the perfect
on November 17, 2019
Posted by: greg
the barrel is the perfect feel...however the ink is not smooth at all very scratchy, combine the z mulsion ink technology with the f402 and that would be the perfect pen....in my opinion. so why did you guys stop making the z mulsion ink anyway?

I love the way your blue
on August 12, 2019
Posted by: Lori
I love the way your blue f 402 writes however, I have had nothing but frustration with the last two I purchased. They write fine for a while and then begin skipping and don't write at all. There looks like there is plenty of ink in them but they only work awhile and then quit. Very frustrated and disappointed with your product. And these are not the first set of your pens that have done this. Your blue f301 has done this same thing to me over and over.
