The earliest historical record of a reservoir pen dates back to the 10th century. In 953, Ma'ād al-Mu'izz, the caliph of Egypt, demanded a pen which would not stain his hands or clothes, and was provided with a pen which held ink in a reservoir and delivered it to the nib via gravity and capillary action. Al-Mu'izz commissioned the construction of the pen instructing: : "'We wish to construct a pen which can be used for writing without having recourse to an ink-holder and whose ink will be contained inside it. A person can fill it with ink and write whatever he likes. The writer can put it in his sleeve or anywhere he wishes and it will not stain nor will any drop of ink leak out of it. The ink will flow only when there is an intention to write. We are unaware of anyone previously ever constructing (a pen such as this) and an indication of 'penetrating wisdom' to whoever contemplates it and realises its exact significance and purpose'. I exclaimed, 'Is this possible?' He replied, 'It is possible if God so wills'. [1] The earliest historical record of a reservoir pen dates back to the 10th century.

Biro Laszlo Jozsef invented the modern ballpoint pen. He patented the pen in Paris in 1938. Biro Jozsef was born in Budapest, Hungary, in 1899.
1.Most ball-point pens will draw a line 4,000 to 7,500 feet long.2.The Most expensive ballpoint pen is $730,000.00.3.Angelika Unverhau from Dinslaken (Germany) has collected more than 220,000 ball-point pens (excluding duplicates) from 146 countries. She has been collecting unusual pens since childhood, but decided to take her hobby more seriously in 1990. She founded a club for ball-point pen collectors who meet twice a year to trade pens.
Basically ink goes down the reservoir and stick to one side of the small ball at the tip of the pen. Then when the ball rolls, the ink on the ball rolls with it and when it touches an absorbing surface, well it transfers onto it.
ball point is a pen .which is use for writing .ball point is Gilly like. it has many quality in ball pint.
It is not known who specifically invented the roller ball bearing. There are examples of their use by the ancient Egyptians. However, it is thought that they may have been invented before the wheel.

The Biro brothers invented the ball point pen. Years later, the BIC company, which had made its fortune by marketing inexpensive but very functional ball point pens, named one of its ball point pens after them, calling it the Biro.
In 1879 Alonzo T. Cross invented the stylographic fountain pen. Then, in 1938 a Hungarian named Jozsef Biro invented the ball point pen.

YES: the Esterbrook pen company manufactured early ball point pens starting 1938 and many were given to WW2 British pilots because they worked better at high altitudes. The ball point pen was introduced into the general consumer market after WW2. The ball point pen was invented by a Hungarian (circa 1889) and called the Biro after it's inventor.
In Hungry Jozsef Biro invented the first ballpoint pen in 1938.
Some ball-point pens.
ink being wet
ball point pens have thin ink tubes then a ball when you write the ball rolls picking ink up from the tube and writing and then ink comes out when you write!
inventions of ball point penduring the world war pilots use ink filled pens in order to note the details of enemy , but during the flight pens used to leak and cause problem . besides pilots ink pens cause problem to general people also. so a comparatively viscous ink was developed and ball point is used to write, thus leak problem was resolved . ball point pens gives better control over writing and the writing becomes fine . It was also invented first by John Loud in 1888 so that it could write on leather and other rough surfaces, a full 60 years before.
I'm sure they put it in from the back before assembling it.

For ball-point pens, the tip of the pen is actually made of a ball bearing, and so the tip of the ball-point pen would be a point until it is worn or not manufactured properly, in which case it might be abit flattened.
