i can see this lil thing being handy when you're out writing and you need to fill up your mop after some super drippy tags or to juice up your jumbo pilot. with the cap attached to the small opening on the bottle, it looks like a clean and efficient refill as well.

these are appropriate for both blackbooks and tags. i use the fine tip for blackbooks and this (medium tip) for small tags. for fat round lines, cut the round tip of the nib with a razor and flare it out just a little bit and it will write buttery smooth with no streaks. small silver tags are very eye catching. it's a handy marker, i'd say essential.
if you want to remove the loud @ss mixing ball, grab a magnet, open up the marker and hold it upright, run the magnet from the bottom of the marker up to the opening and you got a silent silver marker. so it's obviously refillable.
buy one with some silver refill if you don't already have some because these come barely half full.
i've been hesitant to try this out because i thought it runs out quick and it's not refillable. after i read about it a little, the paint apparently lasts a long time and that's true because when i held it in my hand it looked pretty big (that's what she said). it's as wide as a drip mop and about as long as a marsh 99. remember, the speed of your tag (how fast you move your hand) will depend on how many times you push the pump, for example if you pump it 20 times, you better be ready to do a quick @$$ tag at a consistent speed or your tag will look sh*tty.
if you want to see this marker in action, watch the AP review video because the dude shows you how the paint kicks @$$ in the rain. it's a completely original marker, looks like it was made for graff.
the million dollar vandal, like the description says it's designed by 'also known as' and if you're familiar with their books then you know its got some very worthwhile content. it's definitely one of the best books in the graff genre. well written, quality book material, excellent design and layout, overall a very well executed book. also entertaining, its full of the graff drama consisting of chases, arrests, threats, injuries and all that good stuff. aside from that, desa's short biography is interesting because it explains all the external factors that were relevant to how desa came to be the bomber he is.
it's split into two parts, his biography and a high quality photo section with desa's tags, throwies and some cool action shots. i only wish the biography was a bit longer..
a true bomber's story, so buy it.

this is the same nib on the drip mop, k-60 and k-63. it's cotton, so you can't expect to hit up anything rough without some wear and tear, doesn't take a genius to figure that out. the best thing you can do on a semi-rough surface is to write very lightly, if you can hear the plastic grinding on the surface, you're pressing way too hard and you're asking for it to rip. so i have to disagree with some of the reviews on this and say these nibs are pretty good or they wouldn't be used on multiple products. buying extra nibs is necessary for any type of marker, especially if it fits on more than one, so grab the 5-pack! best bang for your buck.
however, mohair nibs in this size do exist, they come stock on grog's 'squeezer 10' mop but they don't work very well with paint. i've tried silver and it wrote all streaky with no drips.
thanks to whoever threw in an extra drip mop for me because my order was a day late to be shipped, you guys are awesome and you know how to keep a customer happy and satisfied! thank youz!!!
the solid white tags from this marker look dope! its classic for obvious reasons: small size, durable nib, its almost full with quality paint and it smells great too :P also it's easy to make a habit of tossing it in your pocket every time you get dressed.
you have to flare out the nib if you want proper fat lines. and tape a small magnet at the end of the marker if you don't like the loud clicking sound from the metal mixing ball, it gets too many glances in public.
the only cons are that it's not refillable and the cap can get stuck sometimes making you look like a jackass before you catch a tag lol, it gets looser after a while though.
overall it's an essential marker, i definitely recommend it.
