What are YOUR must have pens or pencils? Tell us in the comments!
I'm with you on Kuru Toga! I would like to add the classic p207 too!
I use Kuru Toga alpha-gel and Uni-ball Signo ~ but I have to say that Ohto has got me by surprise and I can't have enough of it.
Uni-ball Signo, Pentel Energel, Twsbi Eco!
My must haves are BIC mechanical pencils, Pilot G2 07, Zebra mildliner, Pilot Frixion highlighters and the Sharpie S-Gel pen!
For me, the Zebra Sarasa Mark On, the Zebra Mildliner Highlighter, Pilot Juice and Aloha Gel pencil
I am a Japanese student and love using kurutoga because we write kanji daily. In general, kanjis have many strokes. We sometimes have trouble writing by minor characters in lines such as notebooks and answer sheets. Using this pencil, you can write beautiful letters on paper that are easily distinguished.
わかる。クルトガとかいう毎回芯が尖っていくのがサイコー。今はクルトガダイブとかいうもっと機能面が進化した変態シャーペン（5500円）があるから買いたいって思ってる。uniのツイッターでも最新情報が流れてきたから楽しみ。
クルトガは結構ブレるから苦手。製図用シャーペンとかおすすめ。スマッシュもいいよ
Must have pencil for me is a cheap bic mechanical pencil in case anyone ask me for a writing utensil. I must protect my stationary.
Felt.
Felt that on a spiritual level.
are you having a stroke
Same. Then there are some people who aren't satisfied with that but want something from your favourite stash😑
I carry a few pencils, pens, and highlighters in a separate "to borrow" pouch.
If anyone asks to borrow anything from me, it comes from THAT pouch.
Nobody is touching my actual stationary.
They could keep those for all I care, people forget to return them anyways.
I freaked when someone grabbed my 0.2 Orenz and wanted to write with it like normal.
Or when people try to use the obviously unused eraser on a pencil 😅
It is unused for a reason, don't ruin my pencil's aesthetic.
I use a sarasa vintage grand almost every day to take notes in class. I love how heavy it feels in my hand, the smoothness of the ink, and the classy gold accents on the body. I've also found that it stands up to highlighters very well after a minute or two of drying
Interesting. Do you think it provides a better grip than the sarasa clip? I use the 1.0 mm sarasa clip right now that one can buy from Amazon but I might consider switching since it doesn't make sense to discard the plastic shell every time one runs out of ink.
@@LSC69 the grand doesn't have a rubber grip section, but I've never had any trouble with it. If you're worried about plastic waste though I'm sure you can buy refills for the clips
I find that the ink in the Sarasa Mark On pens holds up VERY well with highlighters, specifically Mildliners (the only highlighters I use) after just a few seconds of writing.
From just feather 🪶 and ink to normal pens to advanced stationary technology. Your engineers, testers, videographer, workers and etc all really did a great work. Big efforts. Keep it up for good!
The Tombow mono zero is my favorite Japanese stationary item. So far. It blows the pentel and bic ones so far outta the water it’s crazy.
I adore my Mono Zero! A real game changer for doing gentle highlights on my Zentangle art!
For pens i prefer pentel energel! I love the needle tip and it’s not too heavy or too light! The ink is smudge proof! For the grip, personally im a squishy grip gurly! But the pentel energel feels good enough! Fav pens.
I love the pen recommendations. I use the Zebra Sarasa as a gel pen. However, I do take into account if it's refillable and if the refills are easy to find and affordable. That being said, in the Philippines, the Pilot Acroball is the usually the choice for many students and professionals. For gel pens, many also choose the Pilot G-tec.
the Tombow 2558 pencils in the softer B grade are my very favourite wooden pencils ever. the graphite is a JOY to write with - super smooth - and genuinely, the eraser on that pencil is hands down the best eraser i have ever used. ever. why they don’t make that material available as a stand alone eraser is beyond me!
I love so many of the products mentioned in this video! The Zebra Clickarts are unique because they are a water based marker but act like an alcohol based marker (I'm a visual artist for reference)
Ohhhhh I would love to know what you mean more! I am an artist too and I work at an art supply store. I’m a drawer/painter so I’ve always loved and preferred water based markers. So please help me understand why they’re cool and what their behaviors are.
@@elysegambino1597 I’m a marker artist myself! What I mean by their uniqueness is that usually water based markers leave streaks while alcohol markers don’t. The Zebra Clickarts don’t leave streaks when you use them to color. Granted I use them to color in small areas but the affect is the same
The Pentel EnerGel it's amazing
The alpha gel uni jetstream is my absolute favorite pen for everyday use. So comfy and writes smooth.
I love how the title font's P looks like a paper clip! And my favorite pen to write with at school is the Uni jetstream in pupule, I just love admiring it when I take notes.
I use the Zebra Sarasa dry X20 in black 0.7 as my “only pen I’ll use”. I won’t use the pens my company provides. I love the smooth flow and never skip, bold lines. Writing is a pleasure!
OMG. I needed this video , like, RIGHT NOW!
Mechanical Pencil favorite is the Zebra DelGuard. I love how the eraser comes out of the body when you flip it 180° when you’re gunna use it! So cool!
My favorite pen is the Zebra Sarasa Mark On. I love how it dries so quickly and it’s the best pen to use with highlighters I’ve come across so far. You still get some smudging but it’s not too bad. It’s also great that you can get refills although lately JetPens has only had the black ink in stock.
After watching a different video of theirs about highlighters, I was introduced to the Pilot FriXion which is an ERASABLE highlight! I never knew such a thing existed! It’s especially helpful for my work as an inspector in manufacturing when I’m marking up blueprints.
I absolutely LOVE JetPens and if you’ve never been to their site you gotta go. There are so many things which you never thought you needed but once you get them you’ll never understand why it’s not the standard to begin with lol.
You know I am glad that there is a channel about stationary stuff it cool and shows me stuff I haven't seen yeat.
Zebra Sarasa Vintage (particularly the gray!) is my must-have. It's the only pen I use in my Leuchtturm1917!
I would most definitely include the Platinum preppy or the pilot metropolitan in the fountain pen forms as probably my favorite pens to recommend people as a first fountain pen.
I recommend ZIG CLEAN COLOR DOT from Kuretake. You can draw pretty illustration easily with it.
One of my favorite mechanical pencils would have to be the Kuru Toga!! When I first purchased one and used it for drawing I was totally impressed!!! And the body design of it is still impressive!!
The Zebra Clickart Knock is one of my all-time favorite pens. I have awful handwriting, but I don't mind--these pens are just so fun to write with. Maybe they will motivate me to improve my handwriting!
the sarasa vintage series is one of my favs
Pilot Kakuno fountain pen. Loved using it for grading when I was living in Japan and now I use it for journaling.
I love sakura gellyroll pens and polychromos pencils!
Uni and Zebra are my go-to for reliable writing. I have yet to try the Zebra Mildliners though, been seeing them in local stores, I'll have to pickup a couple of them and try them out.
every tuesday i go on break at work and watch the new jetpens video💜
Sumogrip .9 mechanical pencil *chefs kiss.* I really like the thick barrel of it and it just feels nice holding it. I’m also a sucker for pencils with the long twisty eraser at the end. Also where’s my .9 lead gang at? So many people judge me for it lol but those thick lines are just too good. I’m also very heavy handed and .9 doesn’t break as much.
Favorites, in descending order and by type:
#1) Uniball Signo DX UM-151 gel pen
#2) Pentel Sharp Kerry mechanical pencil
#3) Pilot Prera & Pilot Plumix (tied) fountain pens
I ordered both a Kerry and a rOtring 600 from another website (Canadian so I wouldn't pay shipping and customs fees), I got the Kerry in a "why not" decision since I was primarily looking forward to get the 600, and yet I absolutely love the Kerry. I leave the 600 at my desk while I take the Kerry everywhere, it's an amazing thing.
@@oliviersavard8676 - I totally relate to your enthusiasm for that pencil.
I'm a fan of Pilot Metropolitan and Pilot Parallel (though the latter took me a LONG time to warm up to). I also frequently use Tombow Fudenosuke, Uniball Signo, Pilot Frixion and Pilot G-2. The G-2 is my "loaner" pen if I need to let someone use a pen.
Non-Japanese stationery items I frequently use are Lamy Safari, Pentel RSVP (my other loaner pen), Sharpie marker, Staedler 0.3 mm Mechanical Pencil and Staedler triplus fineliner.
I had to go fondle my ballpoint case for a while. I need to use these up so that I can buy more! 😂
I definitely agree on Uniball Jetstream, Pentel Fude Touch and Zebra Mildliners! I would choose Pentel Energel over Sarasa though, it's smoother. And I prefer Tombow Twintone markers over Zebra Clickart, their tip is much more comfortable to write with and they're dual tipped. I don't use pencils much but recently got my first Tombow Mono pencil (in HB) and I was shocked how different it was from other (basic) pencils I had! And Kuretake definitely deserves a spot on the list! The Brushables brush pens have the best large brush tip I've ever tried and the Cocoiro brush pens are amazing small tipped pens, refillable and easy to control.
The Zebra shaker pencils are my absolute favorite thing ever, but honestly, anything by Zebra is my all-time favorite.
i am smitten by anything that comes in lots of colors!
The best of bests! ✨
VERY HELPful sabed my life!!
Sailor ballpoint pens. Their ink is so smooth to write with, its just incredible
Both of them i wanted😍😍
All of them are so beautiful😍😍
My must have gel pen is the Pentel Energel as it is really smooth, glides over the paper smoothly (in my opinion smoother than Sarasa) and dries really quickly and does not smudge. So as a Lefty and someone who puts a lot of pressure onto the paper, the Pentel Energel is my must have pen. In my own opinion the Pentel Energel is really underated and the Zebra Sarasa is slightly overated. (This is all of my own opinion and experience, please take it lightly and if you are a Zebra Sarasa pen fan PLEASE please do not come at me.)
i use the zebra mildliners to like.. i forget the word, since im sick, but i highlight each hour of the day with what im doing just to see how much i do. AND i use them to help mark off stitches for when i cross stitch! theyre very helpful c:
I do freelance, so I use a different color for each client I have since theres so many to choose from
Thank you! These are much better than my normal choice of a stick dipped in mud
Oooo the Zebra Delguard is the perfect dupe for the Platinum Mechanical Pencil Oleenu Shield (which was promoted last year)
Y'all have done your job right, I have most of these now.
I really want some Kokuyo Campus Smary Binder Notebooks and more LePens!
THE PASTEL MARKERS✨
Nothing better than a smooth writing pen. I could win the lottery and use it to find any smooth gel pen I can get my hands on
.25 hitec c. Love how solid the ink is. I can write super small and not have any fear of blobs of ink making the print illegible.
My favorite ballpoint pen is Pilot Acroball, but admittedly I must say that the smooth-writing Uni Jetstream also captured my imagination the way Acroball did a few years back! Now, they are both my favorites-and perhaps the Surari might become my fave as well...sooner or later.😅😁☺️🇵🇭🖊️
I love Japanese mechanical pencils! 😍
Now I really want to live in Japan, and want all that awesome stuff
the stationeries that i have from this video is:
1. uni jetstream ballpoint pen (standard version)
- it's one of the best ballpoint pen i've ever tried. this brand made me fall in love with ballpoint pens specifically this one when i had always been the gel pen fan. i was trying to find some good ballpoint pens because i can't answer my exams in gel pens, i'm glad i found uni jetstream. when i have enough money, i'm gonna try and buy the "uni jetstream alpha gel".
- best alternative for cheaper price (in my country's currency) but still good ballpoint pens are "pilot acroballs" and "zebra blen". "pilot rexgrip" is good too but keep in mind that this product has lighter ink colour than the ones i mentioned.
2. zebra sarasa gel pen
- it's good, the ink never skipped throughout the whole time i was obsessed with this pen. it has variety range of colours. the "zebra mark on" is pretty hard to find in my country so i suggest using the "pentel energel" as a substitute, it's equally great and easy to find worldwide.
3. uni kuru toga mechanical pencil (alpha gel and the standard version)
- it's a good pencil but i didn't enjoy using the standard version one because i don't know if anyone experiences this, but i find the tip to be wobbly when in use. i'm scared to buy the advanced one because it's expensive and i don't want to experience the same issue. i love the machanism though.
- however, all of the statement i have wrote here changed when i got myself the "uni alpha gel kuru toga pencil", the grip is squishy and helps my hand from getting cramped from all the intense moment of writing. the tip seemingly to not wobble that much, maybe because of how it's built? the alpha gel has more of the chunky build, i guess that kinda explains it.
4. zebra delguard mechanical pencil (standard ones)
- i have 3 of the standard versions and 1 light version to show that i used to enjoy these pencils that i bought them more than once. however, as time passes by, the spring mechanism doesn't always work and now, when i use it, the lead breaks most of the time. i have to admit, i hold my pen and pencil like i hold grudges towards them and this pencil helped overcoming the problem for awhile but don't expect the mechanism to always work.
- i can use this pencil but not too long because it's not very comfortable to hold as there are no grips, there is a grip one like the one being mentioned on the video but it's way pricier and i don't want to purchase something that i know, the mechanism won't always function.
5. zebra mildliner highlighter
- i've seen many who has said that the highlighters are overrated but personally, i like them. they aren't exactly bad, they might bleed to some papers but i feel like majority of the highlighters are like that. however, i heard that the "uni propus" highlighter does not bleed the page but i have yet to buy it as they are pricier than the mildliners.
- one thing that you might like to hear is that the fine tip at the other end of the highlighter can get blunter the more you use it, i don't find this as an issue but i thought of wanting to include this in case some might find this a problem. so yeah, the fine tip won't stay in the same shape.
I luv all of it
Love my kuru toga advanced also find it takes a lot of pressure off my hand when writing , my pen tel graph gear is way more firm and better for math and drawings. But now I’m thinking I’m heavy handed and I’m going to check out the delguard😅
I use all the pens in this video. Must try the rotating pencil
I have the Pilot Dr. Grip Ace and the Kurutoga, and much prefer the former as the grip is much more comfortable to my hand
my go to is a HBV tempo mechanical pencil its easy to write with and its lead is good.
My ultimate favorite is Sarasa dry. The ink dries so quickly and never lets your hand or paper messed with undried ink.
Thank you
I always need to carry a bic or a normal regular pencil and I don't mean the one that was talked about in this one, to lend out. Lol.
Can I get a shout out for Ohto mechanical pencils? All the sensation of a wooden pencil body on a mechanical pencil that will last for years if well cared for ♡
uni jetstream is my fave pen!!
Pilot precise V5 is very useful, IMO.
Such a good video! But I want to ask can you deliver in europe and is the shipping expensive to deliver to the balkans?
In a culture where note-taking, penmanship, and neatness is so highly regarded, this all makes a lot of sense.
AS A PERson that used a SARASA pen I can confirm that it glides smoothly across the page when ur writing
any recommendations for left-handed people who need fast-drying ink?
I exclusively use the Mitsubishi Hi-uni for pencils. That’s the only pencil you’ll ever need!
I highly recommend those highlighters for students
I love all the pencils
wish you do a must-have for red pens, for teachers (or any other color that teachers usually use for marking). We use red pens a lot and the demand on technicality is different. Need for speed, fast stroke across the paper, no smudge, smoothness, etc...
So far I like Pilot G2 for its consistency. I like Sarasa but Sarasa just doesn't cut it for marking.
The classic Pentel was hard to beat until they realized they needed to wear out so they could sell more. Now a fan of that one that rotates. Name is way to complex though for my brain
I definitely need the heavy handed pens and pencil.
0:06 Please tell me where I can find that pen organizer! It looks great.
Juice up
↑This is also recommended!❤👍🏻
Please make a video about fountain pens nexttttt ( especially broad nib pens 😁😁)
Zebra Midliner gentle colors don’t bleed deeply into the edges of any paper edge.
I've been using my Uni Jetstream for years and it's finally empty 😭 have to order some refills
fountain pens: platinum preppy and pilot kakuno
Slightly off topic, this is not a Japanese brand, but-
Anyone with a parker refill compatible pen should ABSOLUTELY try the Schmidt EasyFlow9000. It flows completely effortlessly while maintaining a dark, consistent line. It's so incredibly smooth as well because its wider tip and ink formula lubricate the tip really well. Absolute recommend!
Uniball One various gel pens and colour pens :)
My must-have pens: zebra Sarasa, pentel energel, pilot g2. Uni Jetstream is niiiice. depends on my budget. pigma micron pens are niceee too. gotta be on sale.
For highlighters: zebra mildliner and uni propus window
I'm a medical professional, so pens easily get stolen. I can only keep 2 pens (one legal, one fun), highlighter, and sharpie on my person at all times. trust issues run deep.
In my collection and cannot imagine not having them: (1) Zebra Clickart Knock Sign pen, (2) Uni Kuru Toga Advance Upgrade mechanical pencil, (3) Zebra Mildliners highlighter pen
Why do you prefer the Kuru Toga Advance over the standard one?
Mostly I use pens like Zebra Sarasa Clip, and pencils like the standard Kuru Toga.
Thank you for the question. The look of the Advance Upgrade catches my attention more so than the Advance; I find its styling and matte finish more attractive. I would love to see a pen version! Regarding rollerball/ballpoint/gel pens, I prefer metal bodies than plastic; I like my writing instruments to (1) feel substantial in my grip, and (2) hold up better with time.
Uggh I can’t escape more pencils 😅
What is the acrylic organizer that is shown holding the pens at the beginning of the video?
Hi there! That's an organizer we purchased from IKEA or The Container Store. We do not sell it.
sony smartpen is amazing
Yaaasss❤❤❤
Though My School says to use gel pens, the ball pens look smooth to write with. Also, can you suggest me some gel pens ?
Do you have some sort of a starter pack with different pens and other stationary?
Yes, you can check out our color bundles here: www.jetpens.com/JetPens-Color-Bundles/ct/5281
Great pen round up! Where are the acrylic drawers from?
Hi there! We get our storage items from IKEA or The Container Store.
what about the kurutoga dive?
Also UNI Mitsubishi writing pencil ❤
Please do studio Ghibli new lim editions esp with the studio Ghibli theme park opening in Japan it’s be a perfect time. Really love this store. Waiting on Midori release and studio Ghibli release.
I use Pilot Acroball and Frixons for my lab course and for everyday use. I pretend that my Frixion pens are not Fixion when I am in the lab to avoid losing marks.
Edit: It has to do with the lab setting and legal stuff once I graduate.
Anybody should have: uni kuru toga pipe slide (good for cursive like me), platinum preppy fountain pen if on a budget/beginners (if not, get pilot metropolitan or LAMY safari), and Sakura sumo grip eraser. Also, anybody know why they discontinued the Sakura sumo grip retractable version, it was my favorite and somebody stole mine so when I went to buy another one, I couldn’t 🥺
That's so sad, I'm sorry for your loss. I'm very emotionally attached to my erasers.
@@b.c.9358 so am I 🥲
What's the name of the first pen she was using before mentioning the Jetstream ballpoint pen?
I've been having trouble with my Sarasa pens. They stop working while there is still lots of gel and ink. I contacted Zebra and they replaced them with some refills. I used one and half way through its use, it has been skipping! Just today I used another of the refills because I can't stand the skipping. Not sure what's going on.
Wait till you try Sarasa 0.38 refills. That thing is the real hell to work with.
Where can I get that acrylic drawer? Is it on the website? Need it for my copious pens 😅
Hi there, we get our storage items from IKEA or The Container Store.
And erasers?
Even if I'm not in the U.S. and japanese stationery is hard to find here, a Tombow Mono eraser is a must have.
AHHHH FINALLY!?
I need more stuff all the pencils please
I have to admit that as much as I love the Zebra Sarasa gel pens, with a ton of colors and available in ultra fine points, the color saturation just isn't there. The clickart are great, but the gel pens just have a disappointing, thin ink with less pigment than in the Uni and Pentel lines. I want to love them and keep buying new ones when they come out and realize it's a waste of my money every time
Same!! I bought the Zebra Sarasa R line and I’m disappointed how the pen dried out so quickly and a cheaper pen like Pentel and Faber Castell didn’t
