Decent, but Not the Best

Better than normal ballpoint, but the ink doesn't dry nearly as fast as some, and is prone to smearing. If you write fast, like I do, there might be some ink transference when you turn the page.
I used these pens at my former job and they quickly became my favorite. I left working there so I wanted to purchase some to have in my home and at my new job. I like the finer point. I think the ink glides well on the page. They are comfortable in your hand.
This is a Great Gel pen that doesn't smear or blot. It writes really smooth and never skips. You can use it to the very end and never waste ink. I highly recommend this pen for every day use.
they write really well my 4 star rating is because I thought they were the .5mm which have been out of stock forever. Is Staples going to get them back again???
