Its minimalist form keeps distractions out of the way, letting you settle into the gentle rhythm of journaling or note-taking. The softly coloured ABS upper barrel feels balanced in the hand, while the long rubber grip provides a relaxed, secure hold for extended writing sessions. A contrasting knock button adds a small burst of character, and the spring-loaded wire clip opens wide enough to attach securely to notebooks, planners or textbooks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"1046\" data-start=\"687\"\u003eThe real charm lies in the specially formulated ZENTO ink. It moves with an easy, low-friction flow that helps you write smoothly without snagging or slowing down. Feathering and bleedthrough are kept to a minimum, so even lighter papers retain crisp, clean lines. The result is a pen that supports thoughtful writing—steady, quiet, and pleasantly effortless.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"padding-left: 40px;\" data-end=\"1046\" data-start=\"687\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e✔️ Light Pink Body contains Red Ink\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e✔️ Light Blue Body contains Blue Ink\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e✔️ Light Grey Body contains Black Ink\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"1046\" data-start=\"687\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong data-end=\"1082\" data-start=\"1048\"\u003eWhy it is classed as a gel pen?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'San Francisco', 'Segoe UI', Roboto, 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif; font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eAlthough the ZENTO’s ink has sparked some discussion, its behaviour aligns closely with gel technology. The ink is water-based, smooth, saturated, and designed to lay down cleanly while drying at a practical speed—all familiar traits of modern gel pens. In day-to-day use it performs like a gel: consistent flow, rich colour, and reduced bleedthrough compared with standard liquid rollerballs. For these reasons, it sits comfortably in the gel-pen category while still carrying Uni-ball’s own distinctive approach to ink formulation.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"692\" data-start=\"644\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-end=\"690\" data-start=\"644\"\u003eDesigned with You (and Your Ideas) in Mind\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul data-end=\"1166\" data-start=\"693\"\u003e\n\u003cli data-end=\"848\" data-start=\"693\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"848\" data-start=\"695\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe smooth, low-friction ZENTO ink\u003c\/strong\u003e keeps thoughts flowing without interrupting the rhythm of writing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-end=\"848\" data-start=\"693\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"848\" data-start=\"695\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe long, comfortable grip and balanced body\u003c\/strong\u003e reduce hand fatigue during longer, more reflective sessions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-end=\"848\" data-start=\"693\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"848\" data-start=\"695\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe clean, minimalist design\u003c\/strong\u003e creates a quiet, uncluttered presence that suits the meditative nature of journaling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDetails\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 13.9cm long\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 13g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterials: \u003c\/strong\u003eAluminum grip, Resin barrel\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCountry of Origin:\u003c\/strong\u003e Japan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Uni Mitsubishi","offers":[{"title":"Light Pink \/ 0.5","offer_id":56911316877696,"sku":"UBNZS05.15","price":2.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"Light Pink \/ 0.38","offer_id":56911347646848,"sku":"UBNZS38.15","price":2.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"Light Grey \/ 0.5","offer_id":56911316910464,"sku":"UBNZS05.24","price":2.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"Light Grey \/ 0.38","offer_id":56911347679616,"sku":"UBNZS38.24","price":2.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"Light Blue \/ 0.5","offer_id":56911316943232,"sku":"UBNZS05.33","price":2.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"Light Blue \/ 0.38","offer_id":56911347712384,"sku":"UBNZS38.33","price":2.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0589\/6880\/1464\/files\/Productimages1000x1000-2025-11-20T212607.152.png?v=1763674543","url":"https:\/\/www.thejournalshop.mom\/products\/mitsubishi-uni-ball-zento-gel-pen-basic","provider":"The Journal Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
