As per the guidelines, the pen “dispenses ink at its tip during use by the rolling action of a small metal sphere” according to the Guiness Book of World Records.
Although many people have made different types of big pens to achieve the reputation of making the largest pen in the world, no one has been able to present their pens as beautifully as this pen in India. Not only that, a lot of big pens are available that make mark by using ink at its tip, but none other than this works as perfectly like a ball pen.
