Review: Uniball One Vintage Colour

 

It's another pen review~ 

This time it's the limited edition vintage colour Uni-ball one from Mitsubishi Pencil. 

I adore vintage colour pens and the packaging for this set just stood out so much, I had to pick it up. 

There are 5 pens in this set, each pen is 0.38mm. 

The Uni-ball one is a gel ink pen. 

The 5 colours are gorgeous and really have the vintage theme down.

The only thing that bothers me is that it is 0.38mm. 

I usually use 0.5 and above so this feels a bit thin, but that's just my personal preference. 

I own 2 of the Sarasa grand pens and the colours looked similar so I've done a comparison here. 

Again, because the Sarasa is 0.5mm, the colour looks a bit richer. 

However, the Sarasa grand costs a lot more so if you want an affordable vintage colour set, I would definitely recommend the Uni-ball.

Review: Zebra Sarasa Grand

 

New pen release! The Sarasa Grand by Zebra. 

If the colours look familiar, it is essentially the Sarasa vintage series in a heavier pen body. 

It is refillable.

Other features include a click type mechanism and an easy push clip. 

Compared the other pens from the Sarasa range, the ink is the same, easy to write, dries clickly. 

The metal body improves the writing feel, making it more enjoyable. 

I'm also a big fan of the vintage colours. 

Sarasa Grand vs Energel metal body pen.   
Both pens weigh the same and have the same matte feel metal casing. 

The Energel is twist whilst the Sarasa is a click type pen. 

If you like the Sarasa range, this pen is a must buy. 

However the metal body carries a much heavier price so pick your favourite colour and swap out the refills!
