ABSTRACT:
A writing instrument has an elongated hollow barrel having a front end formed with a longitudinally extending tip passage centered on and defining an axis, an ink reservoir in the barrel, and a rigid synthetic-resin tip extending along the axis, formed with longitudinal capillaries, and having a front pointed end which projects axially forwardly from the barrel and a rear pointed end which is in the reservoir. This tip is centrally formed with a radially outwardly open groove having axially spaced front and rear flanks and is substantially symmetrical about a plane bisecting the groove. A plurality of radially inwardly projecting holding ribs formed in the passage radially engage the tip and each form a forwardly directed shoulder bearing axially forward on the front flank of the groove.
