I had one of the bic fountainpens for a few years now, and there are some pet peeves, and some things I liked. The nib is a rather soft metal, which was wearing down and causing some sharp edges with miles and miles of writing. Nothing, a fine grit wet sanding could not handle to polish out. I am so used to the big ink cartridges, that having to change it more frequently made it not remain my journaling pen. So the old, trusty Lamy with a big ink cartridge it was for that again. I loved the slit in the cap to pull a lanyard through and not lose the cap while writing. Since the caps on the ballpoint pens were getting lost way before the pen was half way empty, this was a worry, that it gets wiped down from the table, and someone would step on it. It feels quite librarian to have a pen around your neck, and that is a good thing for me. I had to retire it after a time, since the nib wore down so much, but for the price those go, it had a good run. My every day go to was a Lamy Safari for so long, that every other fountain pen feels uncomfortable. I tried different nibs and came to customize a wide nib by sanding the tip to my rather unique hand position as a leftie who was taught to use the other hand.
I also found the nib to be very soft, which was very surprising for me. I think these pens are something different and I find the design inspiring. It will not be my favourite writer, but something I will take out every so often just to have some fun. It is good to hear you got some good use out of the pen, all in all these are lovely little fun writers.
I have one of these and I love the design details that follow the design of the Crystal ball point. I think they are based on Stypen nibs as Bic bought Stypen.
My wife’s a big fountain pen collector and user. Say Bic to her she screams, “Devil sticks!” Lol. I did send her this vid. I’ll wait for the fallout! Regards from Birmingham UK 👍🏼
lol! I hate bic biros too, I couldn’t use them at school as the grooves hurt my fingers. And living in a cooler climate I found the ink clodgy and hard to write fast. I saved my pocket money and bought a nice streamlined Parker falcon that saw me through all my school and university!
I've completely used multiple Bic Cristal pens, I spent 5 years in prison and would write 12 pages or so daily by hand. IIRC one would last about a month when I had nothing else to do but write all day. It's funny to think that for a short time in my life a blue Bic Cristal pen was my most prized possession.
Lately using a Parker 51 push button fill, but have used disposable pens with good results. As to losing the Bic ballpoints, a co worker years ago told me that when he handed the pen over to someone to use, he did not give over the cap; so people tended to give the pen back!!
Haha, that is a good strategy, I will remember that one! I have one of the newer Parker 51s and I am not impressed with it, but I believe the older ones are brilliant.
Wow, I truly love this design, the cap is so Bic Crystal, it reminds me of when I was an heretic using ballpoints 😂 Two of my very first fountain pens were the Bic aluminum pens that were made by Stypen for them, one of them has a retractable nib in pure MB Bohème fashion. Both went out of rotation for many years (more than a decade in fact) because their nibs used to be M on the very broad side until I finally decided to grind both into EFs, now I couldn't be more proud of them, so different than what is mainstream today 😌
Thanks for sharing Cosmo with us. I'm glad you didn't disturb him (the tail swishing was his way of telling you "let me be, I'm comfy here" 😂). Love the review of a fun, affordable pen.
I have this (?) with a roller ball "nib"! Bought it many many years ago and haven't seen it since on sale. But it still writes excellently and is indeed my everyday pen!
This pen reminds me of my old school Sheaffer fountain pen from the 50’s and early 60’s. Colorful, cheap and used a cartridge. Still have mine, and it works fine. Got a feeling that mechanism won’t last 60 years.
@@onemorepen before the no-nonsense....they were different and very classy with CHROME CAPS AND CLIPS...taking sheaffer cartidges...I haveTONS OF THEM...THEY ARE MOSTLY MEDIUM.though I have a couple that were fine...some made in Canada...some made in USA....but they can actually be easily made into an eyedropper..love them...sentimental for me
I think it doesn’t align because it uses the extra pressure against the cartridge to help prevent leaks. If it fit flush, the tolerances wouldn’t be as tight
The whole pen design is made in a way to be kids friendly. Colors too are kids appealing, although i find that green one looking better for adult's eyes. You can only fill it with a small standard international cartridge in a way that looks like you are putting a battery on a game, something funny for a kid without the need to make things complex. A kid isn't supposed to clean this pen or use a lots of different inks. Just the typical pelikan 4001 , schneider or kaweco cartridges that are well behaved , cheap and easy to find inks. Learning a kid to write with it, the pen will probably filled with a blue or black ink the whole time. Also, that nib tip that is somehow pressed on the sides, it is specifically made in this way to be able to write even if you hold the pen at a wrong angle or you have it twisted alot on the side etc like you were using a pencil or a ballpoint. I can't confirm that though, i don't have any fountain pen with that kind of nib design, but that's what others told me.
Yes, it’s designed and intended to be the first fountain pen you buy your kid when they have to start using it at school. It’s meant to be solid to survive at least one school year in the pen pouches bouncing in a bag full of books thrown here and there many times a day. And for the price it’s incredibly solid. And you’re not too mad when they drop it and it fall on the nib 2 or three times a year and you have to replace it… 😂
Enjoying your channel, yes I have finished off quite a few of those bic crystal stick Pens. They were the pens I used all through high school and college and it was kind of a personal challenge to hang on to one long enough to finish it.
Hello, I recently came across your videos and decided to subscribe, yesterday actually. Thank you for showing this interesting pen. I do calligraphy and like flex nibs when using a fountain pen, but for a decent edc pen this looks very cool. Unique design, looks kind of groovy. By the way i have quite a lot of different inks, from different makers, Diamine, Herbin, Noodlers , Waterman, Iroshizuku, Sailor etc, yet i have developed quite a love for Parker Quink washable blue. It looks beautiful when using a dip copperplate nib, or in a fountain pen, and when it dries, its a soft, subtle old fashioned blue that i really love, besides its other benefits as being a safe easy to clean ink. I am going to look and see if this Bic pen is available here. I used to live in Durban, and have a cat called BooBoos. Greetings to you and your Secretary Cosmo, ❤ Helen, from Derry, Northern Ireland, 🇬🇧.
Ah, so you're a Derry girl... I mainly have Diamine inks, then some Waterman, Parker, Sheaffer and Iroshizuku. The Parker Washable Blue is really an underestimated ink, perhaps because it is not expensive and easily available, but I think it competes well with the more expensive inks. By the way, I was in Dublin last year for a conference, unfortunately did not get the chance to explore more, maybe next time. Thanks for commenting.
When I saw a Bic Easyclic for sale, I had to buy one! It writes tolerably well, and I like the blue ink it comes with. It sits in my pen case next to the equally unlikely Crayola Creations fountain pen 😂
This is making me so nostalgic, because a few years ago in highschool I used to have a few of them in different colours, like 3 I think? Maybe a previous model? I had teal, pink, and purple, and I got ink cartridges to match the colours. Not the best pens I've had, but some of the most fun ones.
I picked one of these up about three months ago- nice pen for quick stuff at my desk- very reliable- always ready to write. I don't find it that comfortable, because I have big hands. For short quick things it is perfect, but not good for long writing sessions. Your review is quite good.
Just subscribed, great channel,... aint yep, was a previous Art student and the normal bic pen would always finish especially with portrait and landscape drawings... Great pen though...👍
thanks...where do I order one..on-line! Love the green...wonder does the nib and feed come out for cleaning at least...like can you disassemble the nib and feed and section?...thanks...Janis
I believe it is available from Amazon, but from the other comments it is not cheap at all. I paid less than 2 bucks for it, but I believe it is going for around 24 USD for a pack of 2 - a bit overpriced. I have no idea whether the nib and feed will disassemble, I will have to try and see what happens. Cleaning can be a bit difficult due to the "loading" mechanism. Thanks for commenting.
I have very little (actually none) experience in that area, but I would say Go for it. Nothing to lose and it will be interesting to see what can be done with the nib.
Wow, that's rather expensive. I don't think it is worth that much, unless you want it for the sake of having something different and unique. What would you do with a pack of 20?! Of course, they would make nice gifts... Cosmo says hello.
Mine was bought at Carrefour shop in Kenya. I am aware that they can go for much more on Amazon. If you google Carrefour Kenya and search for Fountain Pen in the online shop, you will find it.
Yes that's a bit overpriced in my opinion. I guess I was really lucky to pick mine up for cheap. It's a fun little pen, but I won't be writing essays with it.
In Kenya. Check out the link - it comes to about 1.50 USD. www.carrefour.ke/mafken/en/ink-pen-cartridge/bic-easyclic-fountain-pen-sm-out-bl/p/138786?list_name=search%7Cfountain_pen&offer=offer_carrefour_
Agree. I bought my first fountain pen 1986, the white plastic Waterman. I had the blue and black clip. Then the red Lamy Safari, black clip and nib. And after that.. Well, I have a lot of pens now.. But never have I heard of Bic fountain pen..
@@onemorepen I still have the red safari with cracked hood.* Black clip is still there. But I was forced to change nib. So it's the ordinary chrome. Likewise, the nib was damaged in both Watermans, so I throw them away. Sad, but true. So, now I have the Waterman Expert III with red lacque. I also collect ballpoint pens and have some lead pens too. * I wrote to Lamy and asked about the supposed life span for a Safari? And they were so impressed of over nearly 35 years of daily use, that they sent me a new pen!! Of course, it was inked several times.
heap I think I think they went for 1:52 around $150 US maybe um around there 1:56 definitely not $2 even so really cheap Please list link at this price. Can't find for less than $24.
This one was bought in store at a supermaket in Kenya named Carrefour. If you google Carrefour Kenya and search on the store site for fountain pen, you will find it for 191 KES, or 1.46 USD.
most pen reviews, not yours in particular, show tests using only one sheet/type of paper. shouldn't pens be tested on different types op (writing) paper to get the complete story?
BIC - has a fountain pen? I mean, BIC is the company most responsible for the world's addiction to disposable, plastic, "use once, then send to the landfill" contraptions full of thick sludge? The company which made writer's cramp part of our landscape - has a fountain pen on the market? I hate BIC, so this is like learning that the Mafia is funding anti-crime legislation and safe houses.

I did not know that this pen existed. Wow! Interesting pen. Thank you for this review!
We shoud all have at least one friend who travels around and just buy us pens at airports and wherever they find them...
I had one of the bic fountainpens for a few years now, and there are some pet peeves, and some things I liked. The nib is a rather soft metal, which was wearing down and causing some sharp edges with miles and miles of writing. Nothing, a fine grit wet sanding could not handle to polish out. I am so used to the big ink cartridges, that having to change it more frequently made it not remain my journaling pen. So the old, trusty Lamy with a big ink cartridge it was for that again.
I loved the slit in the cap to pull a lanyard through and not lose the cap while writing. Since the caps on the ballpoint pens were getting lost way before the pen was half way empty, this was a worry, that it gets wiped down from the table, and someone would step on it. It feels quite librarian to have a pen around your neck, and that is a good thing for me.

It has quite a different grip from what I am used to, I think for smaller hands it will be very comfortable.

In Germany, the school children get the Lamy Safari, not the Lamy ABC.
I can understand why. And there are SO many colours available.
What are the ABCs one for? Just fun looking? They look super cute
Kindergarten. Young pupils (before school) or those that are Very new to fountain pens.
@liselottefrejdig1112 thanks for the info!
Does the nib dry out quickly on this pen if you don't use it regularly? The cap doesn't look like it seals the nib completely.
The cap actually seals very well. It left it unused for about 2 months before it wouldn't start, so actually quite good.
the muji aluminum, jinhao shark, pilot pumi(nix, x) all have caps that dont cover the section

Interesting, I did not know Bic made fountain pens although I will continue to use my Watermans. If I find a Bic, I will try it out!
I also wouldn't trade my Waterman for a Bic, but it is something different and nice to play around with.
I'm not sure about this one but previous Bic fountain pens were made by Stypen.
Great review! Thank you!
I grew up using bic ballpoint pens from first grade through high school, and I have finished the refill on many.
I also used them all the time, still do actually. But never finished one... yet
interesting design, especially how the cartridge is set in there. Thanks for sharing. Never seen that in Indonesia.
I took a look online and these things are selling for $12 - 30 in the US. No thanks.
Yep that is waaay too much. I guess I was lucky to get them at this price. Maybe I should buy bulk and start selling...
I’ve finished loads of bic crystal pens writing log reports etc at work. They’d last me about a week.
Wow. I thought finishing a Bic ballpoint was a myth. That is a ton of writing.
I have emptied many red Bic crystals while grading. Now I use fountain pens with bottled ink.
@@colinsmith5218 Quite an upgrade.

I am familiar with the disappearing pen, but not the exploding one...

Do you know if it comes with different nib sizes like F or B?
I have only these 2 in medium, and I have seen some on the shelves, but I doubt there would be different nib sizes.
Bic, ¿ la de los bolígrafos? 🤔
Because it’s so cheap, i’m planning on modifying the nib. Do you think it’s worth doing that the make it more ultra flex?

Cleaning is not so easy, but done with a little effort. This is also why I am using Parker Washable Blue this time, it cleans much easier.

But, I also draw with them all the time, so...Yeah.
Never from actually writing.
