Pilot Hi-Tech C Coleto 0.4 mm Gel Ink, Ballpoint Refill, 10 Color Set (LHKRF-1SC4-10C)

The gel ink cartridges offer an affordable ink solution without compromising on quality. The smooth writing experience these cartridges provide is truly remarkable. The ink flows effortlessly, creating clean and precise lines on paper. Additionally, the quick drying time ensures smudge-free results, which is particularly handy for those who write fast or have to jot down notes on the go. However, it's important to note that these cartridges are exclusively compatible with certain pens, so owning the pen itself is a prerequisite. Despite this limitation, the gel ink cartridges stand as a cost-effective and high-performing option for those seeking reliable and pleasant writing experiences. I love this ink and I am so grateful that I can finally get it in the good old USA. I used to have to get them from Japan.

Love the Coleto line. It's one of the better hyperfine pens that produce brilliant color that you can read. The colors are simply beautiful. The best part of these refills is including the click tab in the refill itself. It means that if you put a purple refill in your pen, it has a purple tab. That doesn't always happen with other multipens, which will have refills like purple or turquoise available, but will make you stick them in the standard red blue green black tabs. I use the 3.0 nibs, but I've never had them rip paper. Heck, I have .25 Pilot stick pens, and I've never had those rip papers, either. Maybe the people with ripped paper need to reconsider their grip, and try not to write so dang hard. I write hard enough that you can feel my script on the back of even thick paper like Rhodia, but I've never had a Pilot pen rip a page.

I love pens. LOVE them. I've gone through many brands and sizes, but I must say I love these the most. I have used the Pilot G2 0.38mm refills with the Pilot G2 Pro Retractable Gel Ink Roller Ball Pen for a very long time, but wanted a multi-color pen for my day planner (I have a lot of things coming up and want to color code times so they stand out). I've used the KLOUD City 0.4mm colored pens before and they were just okay (nice colors, but they didn't write very smoothly), so I decided to give these a try after reading reviews. I decided on the 0.3mm pen tip since I like having the ability to write smaller (like packing a lot of words into a single square in a monthly day planner) and I'm super happy I gave it a chance!! These don't drag or skip (they write soooooo smooth) and the colors are brilliant. They write somewhat like writing with a 0.5 pencil lead, except colorful and permanent. I also bought the Pilot Hi-Tec-C Coleto 5 Color Multi Pen Body Component (set of 3), so I am able to organize all of the colors the way I want them between two pens.

The colors are clear & bright. The dark blue is almost black, but not quite. Found the orange and turquoise a little harder to read, but are wonderful for art. The fine point is smooth with no scratching or blobs. Works wonderfully with their pen & changing colors is very easy! I have bought individual colored pens from them before with no complaints. This seems to be par for the course.

Pros (+) and Cons (-): (+) They're 0.3mm. That alone makes these a steal at $15. (+) They come in an assortment of READABLE colors! (I can't emphasize "readable" enough!) (+) They're gel ink. This means they flow nicely and water damage takes longer to wipe away your writing (ok, in terms of waterfast-ness, water-based < gel < oil < permanent, but who writes with permanent!? They're the smelliest, bleediest things pens out there.) (-) Not so much the fault of the refills, but the 5-slot pen they go in isn't a 100% tight/locking (not as much as the Pilot G-2 pens), so you'll feel an ever so slight "brush" effect on certain strokes. Like, there's a slight "give" depending on how you write, but this is very, very slight. Some people won't even notice this. (-) The pen these refills go in is 100% plastic, and isn't exactly weighted like high end ones. This won't be a problem to most users. (-) The instructions are all in Japanese (but a quick youtube and you'll be on your way. It just caught me off guard that's all.) Honestly, I'm only docking points for the lack of English instructions and that slight "give", other than that, these are hands down the "finest" pen refills you'll find (for a multipen). Har har.

I love these fine tip pens. I am a head nurse that is in charge of a unit of 20+ patients and keep track of all their pertinent info on just 2 sheets of paper. These pens allow me to write all the info I need in such small spaces and stay organized with multi colors. Would definitely buy again.

Hi-Tech C pens deliver an impressively thin, consistent, and smooth line... now available in a multicolor pen... awesome! These refills require you to have a multicolor pen body, which is available separately. They do not contain a lot of ink as they have a slim diameter, but the colors are marvelous for highlighting and underlining, grading, and annotating! You might get 30 pages of writing out of one of these.

Love these pens. The extra fine point allow me to write comfortably in my small and bear handwriting. Not to mention I can have various colors using one pen. I could not pass up on such a good deal.

Están súper bien me encantaron. Deberían vender también el cuerpo de la pluma

Like a previous reviewer I wondered if these would be too scratchy? However I have found that these write smoothly. They are good strong colours. I have ordered more as I really do like them. Fitting them into the holding pen is a bit fiddly but is not difficult with a little thought and care. Just don't try and force them as if you do you are doing it incorrectly and may cause damage. I do use good quality smooth paper which might not have been the case with the "scratchy" review.

This is great value, 10 colours and if you get two coletos for five colours you'l be sorted. A great selection and they write great, a good set to get you started.

Fits perfectly and has a great selection of colours!
