In fact, the G2 is probably the closest you can get to writing with a proper fountain pen without paying fountain pen prices - not to mention engaging in the expensive monotony of fountain pen maintenance. Also unlike a fountain pen, Pilot G2s are cheap and don't require said maintenance.

Pilot Pen's mission statement is "To provide great quality, innovative, user friendly pen with an affordable price to allow users to express themselves freely."

It's clear why G2 is America's Go-2 gel ink pen. Whether you are at school, in the office, at home or creating pen & ink masterpieces, Pilot G2 Retractable Premium Gel Pens are extra comfortable and flow smoothly and evenly in bright and vibrant colors.

The pen still glides smoothly, less smoothly than the InkJoy or the Sarasa, but still smooth enough to be enjoyable. What really sold me on the G2 is it's longevity when compared to the other gel ink pens. Most of the other pens lasted roughly a week to two weeks. The G2 in heavy use lasted three plus weeks.

Ball pens are the best choice for writing smoothly and fast because, compared to other pens, the ink is thicker and takes little or no time to dry.

Rollerballs provide the smoothest writing. The free-flowing ink doesn't require a lot of pressure, so the pen glides across the page. Gel pens are best for writing precisely, and they come in a rainbow of ink colors. A subset of rollerballs, gel pens write smoothly but typically with thinner lines.

One of the main advantages of being a pilot is the ability to constantly learn something new everyday and to challenge yourself. With so many flights departing airports every single day, no two flights are ever the same - even when you're a pilot.

A resolutely modern writing instrument, the Capless pen is currently the only retractable fountain pen in the world. The seal is provided by a minuscule metal shutter which is as discreet as it is reliable.

Ball pens are the best choice for writing smoothly and fast because, compared to other pens, the ink is thicker and takes little or no time to dry. This means you can write faster and longer without waiting for the impression to dry, saving a lot of precious time.

G2 Retractable Gel Ink Rollerball Pen features water resistant, smearproof gel ink for exceedingly smooth writing.
