Product Review: Stabilo Bionic

 

 

This is my favorite pen, the Stablio Bionic. I adore this pen, despite its flaws. This pen is my go-tothat I miss dearly when I cannot find it at the bottom of my bag or drawer.

 

 I love this pen because it has a smooth, dark, line that works well with my loose, big writing style.  The Bionic is a great multi -tasker for me, I keep it near for both everyday writing and sketching.  The pen has a nice flow of ink that works well both on the plain notebook paper, and heavy bristol paper.

There is a slight bleed through on the notebook paper, especially on heavily layered elements.  For me, this isn't a dealbreaker, but if bleedthrough is your nemesis, then you may skip this one.  The flow of ink is smooth, and the color is a true, dark black with no apologies.  The line is bold, so if you are a small or precise writer, then you may not find yourself a fan of the Bionic.  The Bionic does squeak when it writes, some may find that annoying.  I am not a huge fan of the Orange Color Scheme, but it's easy to find in a pile.

 

Pros:

Pocket clip

Dark ink

Smooth line

 

Con:

Neon Orange (personal preference)

Some bleed through

 

Rating 5/5- My everyday all the time pen.
