Baile is one of Japan's largest stationery manufacturers, ranking among the world's top in both fountain pens and gel pens, and Pakile's Namiki Maki-e fountain pen is the leading fountain pen in Japan, and in gel pens, it is known as the "Nippon Twin Heroes" along with Mitsubishi.
 
Generally speaking, the writing performance of gel pens is mainly affected by three aspects: nib steel, ink ratio and production process. The steel nib and matching inks are very demanding, and the ratio of each component must be extremely precise, and the slightest error can greatly reduce the writing effect, while the Japanese brand is ahead of the industry in the field of steel and ink.
 
In the 80s, Baile applied for a patent for the "V-system" ink supply system, which claimed to be able to use up the last drop of ink. Mitsubishi's "bullet" dominated, and Pak Le could not compete with Mitsubishi in this field, so it had to switch to the "Hi-Tecpoint" three-point support needle barrel nib. The Milestone V-2000 Unisex Series combines these two technologies, with a meticulous and smooth writing experience, which quickly opened up foreign markets and won the sales championship in many European and American countries.
 
With no compromise in writing performance, Pak Le replaced the metal clip of the V-2000 with plastic to launch the lower-cost BX-V series, which has been the best-selling series in North America, with the 0.5mm BX-V5 being named "Best gel pen" on TheWireCutter. However, there is a big difference between the American version and the domestic version, but the smoothness and smoothness of the BX-V5 are still impressive. BX-V5's brother BL-P50, using neutral ink, the writing feeling is almost the same, the capacity is nearly doubled, the life is as long as 2000 meters, 700 meters longer than the life of BX-V5, and the price is similar, the unit price is 8 yuan. If you don't like the blob-P50 body, you can try BXC-V5, the nib is the same as BX-V5, using Baile ink control system, replaceable ink sac, giving people a feeling of a fountain pen, and three ink sacs 7 yuan, very cost-effective.
 
Baile customized P500 has the largest sales volume among imported gel pens in China, and Mitsubishi has not surpassed it so far. The P500 uses a needle nib similar to that of Chinese snow, which is easy to fly white, and is not as stable as the Mitsubishi "bullet", but the nib is resistant to falling, and it is claimed that it can still be used smoothly when bent at 90 degrees. P500 is a disposable pen, large capacity and durable, a pen can write conservatively 2000 meters, smooth ink and no ink accumulation, small writing resistance, high smoothness. Baile pen does not pick paper, it is more likely to be favored by students, and the price is about 9 yuan.
 
Baile's gel pens are not all syringes, and the BL-G and Juice series are bullets. The Juice series is known as a 36-color juice pen because of its gorgeous color, using Bio polymeric water-based ink, the viscosity can be reduced from 5000CPS to 500CPS, the greater the difference in values, the better the ink quality. Competing Mitsubishi's UM-155 is only 10 colors, and the pen is not as smooth as the Juice, but the handwriting is bright and somewhat waterproof. Baile's Juice series costs about 5 yuan, but the price of the replacement core is slightly higher than that of the Mitsubishi UM-155.
