I love these pens. I am a stickler for pens, and I too forgot about these completely for several years, only to rediscover them at a nice art shop.

The real advantages are the fine, smooth felt tip - which has just the right texture and feel, though it may take a day or two to wear-in to a ncie smoothness - and the light weight. It's a completely different experience writing with a featherweight pen. You seem to get a little more play out of it, a little more freedom; heavy pens write differently and for a different purpose. These; well these are my feel-good pens.

I also love the multitude of colors they come in, of course. Excellent for drawing up plans and making notes that are useful to skim later on.

All in all probably my favorite pen around. I need to order more...

I am especially snobbish when it comes to three things (okay, really like 15-20 things but for the sake of this post, let's say three)...
#1 - Shoes, they don't have to be designer, but the have to be really, really good.
#2 - Coffee, it has to be espresso and it has to be really, really good
#3 -Pens, they have to be felt tipped, fine at least minorly stylish...
...so while perusing the art shop, i rediscovered my favorite pens of all time (literally, since I discovered these forever ago and kinda forgot about them) Le Pen - perfectly sleek, smooth and stylin'.
