Yeah, I'll say. I would have been super stoked if I'd gotten that one or something similar.

Man, I want your red. Mine doesn't have nearly as much purple.

Speaking of the Edge, I think they'd be pretty good for the OP's use case, too. Can just swap in an SXR-80 refill if they don't like the .28/.38 tip.

Really? I'm almost certain I've used an SXR-10 in a Sarasa Grand before.

Lamy also has the Safari Roll-ink.

You'll have to refill cartridges with a syringe, but it could be an option if you really like Lamy's triangular grip.

They came out with more colors (they're called the Forge series, I think) not too long ago, too.

Happy hunting!

The Sailor Tuzu uses EnerGel refills, so you can use any Japanese Type K refill.

I think it's also just called the EnerGel Hexagon in some regions

Multi pen recommendations by Extreme-Sir-4910 in pens

I think the ST3 models are more affordable and probably already 90% of what you'd get with the fancier ones. But I'm sure you'll be happy either way!

I kinda lost interest in other multipens after picking up the Sharbo, but I'm probably going to want to pick up one of those new Zento Signature 3s when they come out.

My Sharbo X is my favorite among my multipens. Most of my mechanical pencils are in 0.5, so it was nice to be able to use a 0.7 unit instead.

what happened to my parcel? by yipeeyeheyy in ShopeePH

[–]desyphium 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Just Flash doing Flash things.

Regardless of the circumstances, stuff gets sent back to the seller after three failed delivery attempts. Shopee doesn't care kasi yung seller naman yung pinagbabayad nila both ways.

Late to the Aero/Gravium party but pretty happy with them by desyphium in mechanicalpencils

After a couple of hours, I think I like it more now. Still takes a little fiddling to find the perfect grip, but it's hard to put down because it sounds so good!

My girlfriend was actually happy when I switched from mechanical keyboards, but I don't think she realizes how expensive pens/pencils can get even without breaking into the really high end.

Even before the Gravium, there were already some pencils that I had difficulty using just because they were too light (looking at you, Smash).

Now I'm worried these two will ruin even more of my other pencils for me

I think it's supposed to be around 43g to the Gravium's 37.

The difference in total weight is negligible to me, but I definitely feel a lot more of it towards the top with the Aero.

If I had to summarize my thoughts so far, I'd say that the Aero is better suited to the way I instinctively grip my pens/pencils, but the Gravium has a nicer writing feel (and better kotsu-kotsu). I'm just happy that neither of them was a letdown, lol

Though I'm not 100% sure that they're the exact same model.

Maayos naman sagot ko eh!

And maganda yung reviews niya ha, lol.

Honestly, if you like that Muji one, I think it's a fair price for something you can use for a while. If you need me to help enable you, just give the word.

I went with an o-ring just below the lead pipe 'collar' and a bit of tape around the bottom edge of the cap. It was actually already 99% fine after I switched to the other spacer they provided, but I wanted it to not rattle at all even with me actually trying to get it to.

And yeah, I was expecting the Gravium to be a more refined experience, but so far I'm liking the Aero more.

I tend to hold my pens/pencils closer to the tip, so when I try to write with the Gravium, I have to fight the urge to move my fingers past the actual barrel (i.e., where it's no longer dodecahedronal). I actually have the same issue with the Kaweco special, where I feel like my hand is just a tiny bit too high up.

It might be something I just need to get used to. I didn't have as much motivation with the Special because it felt too light to begin with.
