A better ballpoint pen, these slinky-writing heroes feel like a vintage dream in the hand and like flying on the wings of Falkor on the page. Ballpoint pens in the past used "sticky" ink, but Anterique's oil-based ballpoint pens use "ultra-low-viscosity ink" (also known as Mach ball ink for the ink aficionados). Ultra-low-viscosity is ink that is "smooth" and easy-flowing like salad oil. When using "smooth" ink, an ordinary pen tip will have ink leakage, so it must be combined with an ultra-precisely processed pen tip. These ballpoint pens use a pen tip with a built-in spring to precisely control the flow of ink for a very crisp, non-smudging, ultra-fine .5mm line. Black ink. The secret to smooth writing for everything from grocery lists to love letters to the Childlike Empress.
