Perfect Pens for Proof Readers

A perfect pen for proofreaders: the Pentel Slicci 0.25mm red gel pen
The Pentel Slicci 0.25mm red gel pen
Further to yesterday’s post about proof readers and their pens, The Pen Addict has kindly made a couple of recommendations.

 “I have had one or two proof readers mention to me that the Pentel Slicci 0.25mm red gel ink pen is one of their favourites. The line is sharp, consistent, and skip free, and the red ink is bright. This pen has no problems stopping and starting. The only issue some have with this pen is that the barrel diameter is too narrow for their tastes. Another option would be the Uni-Ball Signo DX in 0.38mm or 0.5mm line widths. It comes in a 0.28mm, but it is much more scratchy than the Slicci.”

Our thanks to The Pen Addict for his expert advice.
