BIC Glide Black Retractable Ballpoint Pens, Medium Point (1.0mm), 4-Count Pack, Ultra Smooth Writing Black Pens

Same excellent pens i’ve been buying for years. I like how smoothly and consistent ink these pens provide. They last and they are thick so the grip is easy to handle. I’ve only ever used black and they don’t smear on documents.

I've always had trouble with other pens drying out even though I've just bought them. Writing with this pen however feels very fluid and sometimes you might have to scribble a bit to get the ink rolling when you first write, but from there it's almost guaranteed no more dried ink/skipping words. I use this same pen for writing in lab notebooks, letters, journals, notepads--everything, and now I exclusively buy this pen over anything else because of the functionality and price. The quality is really great for how little you're paying. I've used the same pen for about a year and it still works great. Love it!

I really do love these pens and have bought them several times. The grip on the pen makes it comfortable to write, the writing quality is smooth and dark. Sometimes the pen does have an issue with too much ink coming out at times, so you get a bit of clumpyness at times, but still overall a great pen.

These pens won't help you write better....just more legibly!

No matter how many pens i think i have..im always looking around.These are great pens. Write smoothly..dries quick and no smearing. I think their a pretty good deal.

When you write with this pen you feel that you are either brilliant or lucky, or both. It writes so nicely, so smoothly, doesn’t skip, leaves a clear black line. The problem is that if you let it sit for an hour or two, extended or retracted,the ink dries up on the ball, and you have to spend time getting it started before you can write. You know the problem, you’ve seen it with a pen that you left in a drawer for a month or two. So, you have to ask yourself, are you feeling lucky? If you’re going to be using it all the time then go for it. If you’re like me and won’t use it for an hour or two or more, and hate having to go through the ritual of getting it started, yet again, before you can write, then look elsewhere.

I purchased these to write in a beautiful journal my Grandson gifted me.for Christmas. The journal has beautiful thick water colored pages that require a smooth black flow of ink that doesn't bleed or is not seen on the next page! These are perfect and I will definitely purchase again. NOTE: I'm glad I read the reviews - they warned of a plastic tip on the pens that needed removing.

The pens are comfortable and also a very good buy. However the ink becomes" gloppy" at times and smears on the paper and hands.
