The V5 is a great pen! They used to be my daily driver, and if you want what they do well, they're hard to beat. (Fountain pens can and will, but they're fussy, and everyone knows it. They're basically V5s on steroids: same highs, same lows, just more of them, with more choice and customization possible.)

But I would never call them "robust". Unfussy, yes. But a G2 glob is just a minor annoyance. A V5 leak, and they do leak, is a real problem. They're also prone to quick deaths if they roll off a table. G2s don't care about such minor mishaps.

So the G2 is my vote for "sprinkle everywhere".
