ABSTRACT:
A ball-point pen of the present invention is provided which includes: a ball-point pen refill being accommodated in the barrel cylinder and having: a tip with a tip ball held at the front end thereof; an ink reservoir which stores low-viscosity oily ink and has an ink follower provided in the rear end of the ink; and a joint disposed between the tip and the ink reservoir. The joint further includes: a valve chamber holding a ball valve in its inside and communicating with the rear end of the tip; and a ball valve seat disposed on the rear side of the valve chamber for the ball valve in order to prevent backward flow of ink. With this configuration, it is possible to provide a ball-point pen which, without need of any cap, can create dense writing traces free from blotting and unevenness even when a low viscosity oily ink is used.
