Ballpoint Gripped Stick Pen 1mm Black

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Ink smudges if immediately rubbed after writing. The pen writes smoothly and it feels nice in my fingers. I like the width of the pen. It feels a little cheap though. I feel like the cap would break easily and if it was stepped on it could definitely break. I would like this pen if it was on the cheaper end for price. After writing for a few minutes the ink no longer smudges.I would probably buy these pens if they came in a pack but probably not as a single pen.

It Looks Nice But Doesn`t Write Well

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was excited to use this pen because at first glance it looks like a really nice pen. Once you pick it up though you realize it`s just a cheap plastic pen. It feels cheap in your hand. It`s a roller ball type ink not ink like a regular stick pen. I like roller ball type pens but this pen does not give you good coverage when you write. If you`re not writing on a firm surface and using consistent firm pressure when you write you`ll not get solid coverage in what you wrote. I find that annoying. A co-worker also tried the pen and didn`t like it either.

Ballpoint pen 1mm - black

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Tru Red ballpoint pen is satisfactory for business pens or to have a few for around the house. It`s a basic no-frills pen that writes well and ink doesn`t smear.

Pleasantly Surprised

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As a left-handed person I steer clear of ballpoint pens because my hand slides across the paper the ink smears and the side of my hand is covered in ink. Not so with this pen! It writes smooth doesn`t skip and does not smear at all. I have now found a ballpoint pen that I like and will definitely keep my eye out for more colors. This pen definitely exceeded my expectations.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very nice pen. Lightweight and very good ink spread. Wishing it was more like a Pentel pen.

Ballpoint Gripped Stick Pen 1mm Black

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] When I first picked up the pen I thought that it had a good weight to it. I have large hands and the pen fit nicely comfortable if I had to do a lot of writing.I am a left handed writer so I am very particular about the pen I use. Now lets move on the to writing I wrote on several type`s of paper and cardboard newspapers. The pen flows while writing in cursive. And the same while printing.And then I found out that the ink spears on every single thing I wrote on. I even aloud the ink to dry up to 3 minutes and it still speared so at the end of the day I cannot give this pen a good review not even a fair rating for the smearing. I am sorry about that.

Verified Purchase:Yes
The pen skips as your writing had to return it.
