Review: Zebra Sarasa Clip 0.4mm Viridian Green

When I recently reviewed the Zebra Sarasa Clip 0.4mm Tea Brown a few weeks back, Der Bingle mentioned in the comments section that I really needed to try out the equally as new Viridian Green Sarasa clip.  It doesn't take long for a suggestion to become reality, so let's see what we have here.

I have mentioned in the past that I am not a big red or green ink user, which is why I didn't order this pen the first time around.  I am starting to come around on red ink - especially with my Pilot Hi-Tec-C 0.3mm - and Viridian Green may get me on that bandwagon as well.  This shade is a little bit brighter than a  standard green, whatever that may be.  Of course, as big of a fan as I am of the Sarasa Clip 0.4mm line, it isn't going to take much for me to like one of these pens.  One thing I mentioned in the written review that is a little odd is the fact that the grip feels a little gummy.  None of my dozen or so other Sarasas have the same feel, so I am going to chalk this up as a fluke.
