brush-pen
Ink tool, bendable
A brush-pen is a pen with a flexible tip that mimics the behavior of a paintbrush, allowing variable line width based on pressure.
Used for calligraphy, lettering, and illustration, it offers brush-like effects without the mess of ink and water: She sketched the portrait with a brush-pen.
The tip may be synthetic fibers or a felt nib.
