so what is with this tiny pen i've been seeing on people's keychains? it's today's pen, the sharpie mini fine point permanent marker, that's what.
i have own a few of these little wonders, they are roughly half the size of the regular fine point marker, but boast the same sized tip. these pens are useful in that they are more or less wearable, are discreet, and performs the same as it's larger counterpart.
so yeah, instead of repeating myself from yesterday, i suggest that you look at the sharpie fine point from yesterday, everything i talked about there applies to this pen as well.
as a person who tends to carry a mobile office around with me, the size and portability of this pen appeals to me. i tend to have a pen on me at all times, however, for those that i haven't, this pen, attached to my keychain saved me from having to memorize names, numbers, etc.
the one drawback to this pen is the detachable tip clip. i have nearly lost this pen more than a few times, and it was just luck that i noticed it. i have solved that little problem by crazy gluing the tip clip to the cap of the marker and so far this seems to have solved that minor flaw in this pen's design.
since these things are as good as the original, and inexpensive, i recommend anyone who likes working with sharpies look into getting one of your own.
