Great pens, caps can be tight
The writing experience is smooth and the black is very deep. My only minor complaint is that the caps can be a bit difficult to remove sometimes, but I suppose that ensures they don't dry out.

The Gold Standard for Inking
I have been using these pens for my manga projects for over five years. The line consistency is unmatched, and the ink never bleeds through high-quality paper. Truly essential for any serious illustrator.

Reliable for technical drawings
While marketed towards artists, I use these for architectural sketching. The precision is excellent, and the archival quality means my sketches will last for decades.

Perfect for fine details
The 003 and 005 sizes are incredible for adding tiny details to character eyes and hair. They do not fray easily even after hours of continuous drawing.

Waterproof claim is accurate
Tested these with watercolors immediately after inking. The lines stayed crisp and did not smudge or run at all. Perfect for mixed media work.

Worth every penny
Initially thought they were pricey compared to generic brands, but the longevity and consistent flow make them much more cost-effective in the long run. No more skipping lines!
Q: How should I store these pens to prevent them from drying out?
A: Always ensure the cap is clicked or pushed on firmly until you hear a click or feel it seat completely. Store the pens horizontally or with the tip facing down to keep the ink flowing toward the point.
Q: Do these pens contain acid that could damage old photos in scrapbooks?
A: No, Sakura Pigma Micron ink is acid-free, archival quality, and chemically stable. It is specifically designed to be safe for use in scrapbooking and photo albums without causing yellowing or degradation over time.
Q: Can I use alcohol markers over the ink without smudging?
A: Generally, yes. Since the Pigma ink is waterproof and quick-drying, it usually resists alcohol-based markers. However, we always recommend testing on a scrap piece of paper first, as heavy saturation or rubbing can occasionally affect the line.
Q: Are these pens safe to use on fabric for textile design?
A: Yes, the Pigma Micron ink is permanent on many surfaces including fabric. However, we recommend heat-setting the design with an iron (no steam) after it has fully dried to ensure maximum washability.
Q: What is the difference between the 01 and 02 tip sizes?
A: The 01 tip produces a line width of approximately 0.25mm, while the 02 tip produces a line width of approximately 0.30mm. The 01 is better for extremely fine hatching, while 02 offers slightly more visibility for general outlining.
