Pilot G2 Retractable Gel Ink Pens, Bold Point, 1.00 mm, Black Ink, 5 Count

Smooth writing nice bold ink. However, I dropped 1 star for Quality just because the ink will smear if touched right after writing, even on regular paper. Once dried though, ink stays without smearing. I know there are other companies that have smear-free gel pens but most don't write as bold as these.

Not much more to say then these are my favorite pens in the house. they make doing tasks like list making and check writing ALMOST (and I mean almost... they aren't magic or anything) enjoyable. They don't bleed or smear and they write very dark and smooth with little effort.

I am loving my pens my pink purple and blue all three sets I bought. They write so smoothly and never bleed through the paper, the colors are nice and vibrant. Comfortable to write, comfortable to hold, the barrel aint to thick or thin. I recommend them 100%

These are the very best pens . . . I even pay extra when ordering them . . . sellers have figured out that people love them so you can mainly only get them from re-sellers now . . . and I still buy them - because they're my absolute favorite. They're beautiful . . . black ink but the pen colors are gorgeous. Great grip, smooth writing that doesn't smudge like gel pens.

This is the only size pen I'd rather write with. It doesn't bleed on your paper, it flow nicely across the paper. It's for ambidextrous writers that want the feel of writing calligraphy. I'd definitely recommend these pens as well as continue to purchase, as I've realized these size pens are hard to find. 0.38 pilot G-2.

As a learner of the Japanese language, I sometimes have difficulty finding pens with a fine enough tip to write kana cleanly. These handle the small strokes really well with smooth and consistent ink flow. It's the same great G2 quality I've always loved, and now precise enough for my Japanese handwriting.

I used to absolutely love these pens. The effortless glide, decent ink flow, the perfect grip, and no worry about skipping ink. However, they must have changed something. The last time I purchased these pens, I had ink skipping and dryness (it's like they were dried up inside). These pens are not like they used to be. Maybe I just got a bad pack, but after years of buying them, this was the only time I noticed the decline in quality.

This is a good writing pen however it runs out of ink quicker than most. The price has gone up but the ink simply doesn't last if you write a lot. I buy these pens because I haven't found another company to replace these with. I like the color they're bold and smooth. I'm not telling people not to buy because obviously I buy them. I write a lot the pen runs out of ink quicker than most my personal opinion.

I ordered these pens to go along with the white ink pens, so I have a contrast for my paintings and drawings. The pens are great. I can always count on them. They hold a lot of ink and they're so easy to work with and say again as an art teacher retired I am very conscious of the types and quality of art tools that I would have my students purchase and if our were still teaching, I would say purchase these pens because they are great and for the money you can't beat it thank you so much.
