Does the pen ooze a lot of ink. Does it bleed through paper?

Does not ooze ink even on airplanes. It does soak through thin paper found in some notebooks. No soak through on hi quality papers.

if you use regular printer-grade paper, the ink does not bleed through. if you try to do the newspaper crossword with one, it may bleed through that thinner, lower quality paper. Legal pad paper depends upon the quality of the paper. if you pause with the point in one place, they will blot, but not typically otherwise.

I have used this pen on newsprint, sketching pad paper and drawing pad paper and never had any problems with it. I purchased a whole box because I was that happy with the one pen that I had gotten.

I use it to write letters to my brother and yes it does bleed some but not very badly if you write on both sides you can still easily read it. As long as you hold it properly it will not leak ink.

No. It is a beautiful pen, but is heavy. For fun try a Jin Hao 450, a very nice pen too.

I used a #2 pencil and it did not bleed through; I was not pushing hard on the pencil though. when using a black pen, sometimes you can just see a shadow from the pen.

Yes if you click on it the ink part comes through. Not good if you don't look first to make sure it's only the rubber. I've never had a problem with it though. I guess I never use it as a pen.

I use it on black thick paper so it doesn't bleed - I have used in on white paper - it doesn't come all the way through, but you can definitely see it.

On regular printer paper you can see the ink on the other side but it does not bleed through. In my experience, the black pens "bleed" less than the blue/red/etc.

very little bleeding, actually. they write very well on thin paper, even newsprint. but that mostly depends on the ink and quality of the paper... more factors than just the pen. messy? if you write *really* slowly, i could see it getting a little wet and sloppy, but... i don't think you'll have a problem.

The extra fine does not write that wet. I have not experienced any bleed on the otherside of the paper. If you want it to write wetter, I would suggest a wider tip.

I haven't had it bleed through any of the papers I've used them on. Depending on the color you can possibly see a little bit of it on the bak side (if thin paper)

I haven't had any experiences with them clumping up, and they write exceptionally smooth. The ink does take a little time to fully dry, but what really good pen doesn't?

The paper can bleed quite a bit if you're not careful. It's really akin to a hardened type of toilet paper...very absorbent. It will bleed through if you don't move with the pen fast enough. It is VERY thick, though. You'll love it!

In my experience no. I use sketch and drawing paper and the ink never bled through.

I do not know how the ink compares to Pilot's ink, I do like the ink. I did like the pen that came with it however after a few months of use the rubber o ring started deteriorating causing the ink to leak, I do not use that pen any longer. The ink is good it is very bold and black ink, it does have some feathering but that could be attributed with the fact I write with a lot of pressure.

I write with fountain pens all the time, and the ink from these pens dries as fast as any other fountain pen. If you rub your finger across it right away, it will smudge, but in just a few seconds the ink is dry. Of course with any ink, the nature of the paper or other medium will have s significant influence on how fast the ink drys and how well it will write.

Yes. It's the one in the photo. You have to fill it with the dropper which was a new concept for me. It also comes with a ball point 'nib' if you don't like fountain pen nibs. It's really a pretty fair pen; it will practically write in the air. It has a tendency to drip. it was worse at first so I don't know if it's the pen or if I had to get used to writing with it. Also, the cap on mine eventually cracked. It's plastic after all. I'm bummed because it had become one of my favorite pens and it holds gallons of ink.

The advantage to this pen is that is does bleed when I wet it. It does not bleed through when I apply it. I use it for sketching. It draws a nice neat line. Then I wet a brush and go over the pen lines to shade the drawing. Once this has dried, it is relatively permanent. Only the yellow top Razor Point has this characteristic. The others are meant to make permanent marks. I am usually working on paper that is a little heavier than printer paper and the pen doesn't bleed through on it.

No. You need a regular felt tip for that purpose. The pens are excellent for writing...and no bleed through.
