Stainless Steel Microporous Tip:** Each pen features a slender, metal-clad tip that protects the fiber nib from fraying or bending, even under the pressure of rapid sketching.
Professional-Grade Ink:** The archival-quality ink is lightfast and chemically stable, ensuring your work remains vibrant and permanent over time.
Durable Fiber Nib:** Crafted for resilience, the nib maintains its shape through extensive use, providing a smooth, skip-free experience.
