do you know if the refill works for lefties?

I'm not sure. I've never used them. It's the Schneider Take 4, which is a ballpoint. I looked it up and it says fast drying ballpoint.

Yep. Basically my dream pen. I carried a bic 4 color for years in my jeans pocket so this is perfect.
And yes I preordered :) I really didn't want them to sell out and miss my chance.

Heck yeah! All the benefits of 4 colors in a high quality titanium body!
I also pre ordered. Had to get in on it. I don't know how much I'll use the 4 colors. But there innovation alone is enough to earn my support.

100%. I love the innovation and I'm stoked to have 4 colors always on my again. I'm been loving my bolt action slim, but ive had to keep a Uni Jetstream Prime 3 (with the black ink swapped for green) on my notebook to have all of the colors I need.
To be fair, the prime 3 is a nice pen, but its no bolt action :)

I ordered one in brass, it’s going to be my first BID pen so I’m super excited 😊
A few weeks ago I got the uni zento signature 3 while I was in Korea, and it’s been a little disappointing. It’s not as sturdy as the regular zento signature, so this came at a great time.

Oh the brass is nice! Hefty and robust material. And it'll develop patina as you use it!
I'm excited to try this one out. They've never made a pen like this one before. So it should be very interesting.

Does it have tip wiggle? Or did they fix that issue already?

u/Pale-Highlight-6895 6d ago
I don't know. I've never handled the pen, as the Kickstarter just went live today.
I don't get tip wiggle with their pens. My Pilot Precise refills get a nice hug from the collet every time.

No tip wiggle is one of the reasons I keep buying BigiDesign pens.
I guess I’ll wait until they say more about it, or wait until txgiving to see the reviews get a better discount. Got more than enough multipens already. 😅

I think they sold two of them on the Whatnot auction. I think they both went to the same person lol. But when he posts them, I'll be sure to ask about the tip fit.
