went to japan last year october and saw the jetstream edge. would wanted to buy it however the 0.28mm was to small for my writing happened to watch this video days after my trip and was frustrated cause i shouldve bought cause the refills that i usually use for my 4-1 uni jetstream pens are the sxr 80 0.5mm few days ago my brother came back from his business trip and got me this one. was so happy. currently using the pen with the sxr 80 0.5mm refills. works perfectly fine thank you for this video!
Great video, this answered every question I had, lol. Really looking forward to trying out the 0.5mm and 0.7mm refills in the Edge. The 0.28mm refill is really cool but not very practical for me.
I love the Jetstream edge and I'm glad you did a video on this because I've noticed that the Jetstream Edge gets a good amount of bad reviews even though its just the stock refill people don't like. I get it, from my experience a lot of .28mm refills are just too scratchy and skip too much to use. But like you're saying the refills are very interchangeable, and I moved up to the .38mm refill and have no problems. The line thickness is still crazy fine but its so much more consistent. I also really like the .7mm. They also have .3mm, .4mm, .5mm, .and 1.0mm like you use. You don't see that kind of variety in refills very much.
In Japan, writing is prevalent and people still write - a lot. This is why the Japanese stationary is amazing: these people take their scribbling very seriously - and good for them if I may say so. It's obvious that they would offer all kinds of refill variety in colours and sizes and whatnot.
The 0.28mm is scratchy relative to a 0.5mm for sure, but for a 0.28mm, it's remarkably not scratchy! Just try a 0.25mm Hi-Tec-C some time. That said, I prefer larger sizes, but for specialty work, I think Uni did great work here.
hello dumb question. But if you cut down one of the normal plastic jetstream .28 refills.... could you make it fit in the jetstream prime body?? like are those refills the same diameter, just different lengths? (and one is plastic one metal?)
Thank you so much, exactly what I wanted to know, because in the UK the SXR-203-38 is impossible to find, and I wanted to know if I could use the more common and thicker SXR-80-38 instead! thank you.
So, until we get an official G2 int'l (Parker-style) official Jetstream in blue color, is there any way to convert a standard Jetstream refill to a G2 in a way usable in e.g. a Parker Jotter? I would love to know if such a thing is possible because ok, I love my Jetstream black and all that, but for blue I have to use Easyflow refills (not a bad refill by a long shot, but kinda inferior-ish to Jetstream).
What's up with this video? I got here by clicking on your BEST ROLLERBALL PENS OF 2021 video put out about 9 hours ago. Great video, but I'd like to see the rollerball video too.
I’ve had my Edge for almost a year (ordered from eBay Japan). While I love extra fine tips, the 0.28 is just too fine for me. So I’ve stopped using it the last 6 months. Thanks for the video. Now I can see what works best for me. 👍

Is there any way to get a 1.0mm gel refill for the Edge? I’ve only found ball points that fit. Thanks
Hm haven’t found a gel for it yet. Most 1.0mm gel refills are too wide for a friction fit like the edge.

This is exactly what I was looking for, thank you!
I would like to see the Edge series with the quality of the Prime 3+1. The price would increase but I think it would definitely be worth buying.
Yeah, fully agreed. Edge aesthetic and flared grip but full metal. Maybe the Prime's matte black too. I'd be in for that
Hey Sal, great video as always, I really like the look of the jetstream edge, I'm thinking about getting one.
thanks. I think it's a good pickup, especially now that prices are sane in the US. IMHO: get the edge, not the edge 3
@@unsharpen Awesome, thanks for the tip man!
Putting multiple sizes in same multiple for diff writing seems fun

Great!
Would love to see a review of the Jetstream Edge. Looks very cool!
Edge 3 : m.ruclips.net/video/RAXKQ5QBeDM/видео.html
Would those Jetstream refills work on a Rotring 600 3 in 1? Any help by anyone would be much appreciated.
What is the best 0.5 refills for jetstream edge 3?
I love the sxr 80 which it comes with
This was really helpful dude. Thank you.
Thanks for the kind words

You could buy a "Parker G2 to D1" adapter. There is one in Japan and I've wasted some money on 3D printed ones

Slimknock also fits!
my pen has trouble writing

Great to hear!
How much is the bright green colored pen? Thank you.
That the Jetstream Edge, but in a limited color. Should be about $10 through Japan or $15 on Amazon if you can still find them
@@unsharpen Thank you.
I wish Jetsteam edge plastic part has more weight to it. Otherwise, love it.
Yeah a full metal Jetstream Edge would make me more happy than a pen should.
In my notifications it has this video listed as the best rollerballs of 2021? strange. This is still goos though
Yea minor mess up on my part. That video will be soon
What other refills can I fit in this pen? The jetstream edge?
The content of this video doesn't the title.
Good catch. Thanks for the note
I’m in USA I got 2 for 14 bucks 😂😂😂 price went down 😊
Yea the price on this one has dropped quite nicely and availability is way up.
Any of those sure beat this cheapo multi-pen I found on the ground, lmao
