> Just checked, their website lists 0.28 mm, 0.38, 0.5, 0.7, and 1.0 mm, with examples of each. [0]

Except that you forgot to check their website. Jetpens is a reseller.

Uniball only acknowledges 0.5mm for Jetstream pens that include multiple ink tubes in one cylinder.

My use case is that I carry a pen around in my pocket in case I need to write something down. More rarely, I might actually write something down. I don't like writing in thick lines.

The pen I'm currently carrying is one of these: https://img.alicdn.com/imgextra/i3/682114580/O1CN01nP4t8J1jh...

    if you're dead set on making sure brand sites match the actual brand offerings then I hope you have the luck to avoid most obscure engineering brands in your life.

    it's absolutely the norm in say, hydraulic pumps, that when an offering isn't available on the website you call the company and they say 'Oh yeah, we have those -- theyre not on the site because no one wants one.."

    I'm not sure what's your point. Uniball doesn't sell 0.5mm on their website, fine, but jetpens does. Is your point that Jetpens are selling fakes? Seems pretty unlikely.
