Fun!

I bought the 6.0 mm Pilot Parallel Pen just to use as a wet writer when doing ink reviews for myself; I’m not a calligrapher and don’t do arts and crafts. I use this Parallel as a dip pen and write with it holding the nib normally and on its side to get thinner lines. I have observed no damage to the paper when writing with the nib’s corner. The pen can be disassembled quickly for easy cleaning.

The Parallel feels sturdy, is easy to hold, and even if the barrel is longish, the pen is not back weighted. It is also easy to clean. One thing to note: my 6.0 mm came with a silver barrel, but I think the new Parallels come with a white one, based on the newly released 3.0 and 4.5 mm ones I’ve seen around.
