I really don’t know why I like writing utensils so much, especially since I type far more than I write. Yet I have about 50 different pens (and a few pencils) each with its own set of characteristics: gel, ink, non-smudge, waterproof, good heft, low friction, and colour are just a few examples of why I’ve bought them over the years. From past experience then, it’s no surprise I want one of these:
World’s thinnest ballpoint pen…thinnest possible lines you could ever write. It’s quite fine. It has some sort of special ink for reducing friction so it won’t clog. It’s not super-flowy like a normal gel pen but it allows you to make sharp and precise short lines, which is what I suspect it was designed to do (i.e. for writing Japanese characters (see circle in picture with writing between lines of text), or alternatively adding fine details into drawings).
