## Description

BIC CRISTAL XTRA BOLD BALL PEN A bolder version of the classic BIC Cristal pen, the BIC Cristal Xtra Bold Ball Pen combines smooth ink flow with a sleek, refined design. This pen features Easy-Glide System ink, a proprietary technology that delivers vivid marks and is even smoother than the classic BIC ink system. The 1.6mm bold point creates strong, eye-catching lines, while the translucent smoked barrel allows you to easily monitor your remaining ink supply.

Review: The Real [Cristal] Deal! - Buyer Beware: If you want those BiC Cristal ballpoint pens that feature the extremely smooth-flowing liquid ink, you must make sure they are the Cristal Xtra Bold 1.6mm pens. And you will find them in this 48-pack. Why BiC sells "different versions" of the Cristal, I do not know. For instance, the Cristal Xtra Smooth & Reliable is what we all remember to be the "classic, typical, standard-issue, clear-barreled BiC Medium Point ballpoint" for the last umpteen years. Don't be duped, like I was initially. Make sure your pens are marked with "BiC Cristal 1.6 mm" on each and every barrel. Because ... The BiC Cristal Xtra Bold 1.6mm is an entirely different animal. It has a "smoky" tinted barrel [versus clear], and the ballpoint tips are factory-sealed with a tiny drop of clear plastic to insure ink moisture & flow. It is a fine writing instrument, regardless of its reasonable price. What makes this 48-pen assortment extra-special is due to the fact that you'll be getting 8 [eight] ink colors to enjoy ... 4 "traditional" colors [Black, Blue, Red, Green] -- and 4 "fashion" colors [Hot Pink, Sea Green, Purple, Aqua]. And they all write smoothly & beautifully. BiC, if you're reading this, you need to come out with "Cristal Xtra Bold Refills" for pens like Cross, Garland, etc.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Doesn't retractable mean there's a clicker instead of a cap?**
A: Yes, not sure why it says that-they definitely have a cap and aren’t retractable. Great pens, though!!

**Q: Can you see remaining ink supply in all colors as shown in the picture? I purchased and only four colors were clear.**
A: No, you can't see the remaining ink in the most vibrant colors. Those have a white tube, which hides the ink. Red, blue, black have clear tubes.

**Q: How many different colors are there?**
A: There are 8 colors, you can see which ones in the bottom right corner of the packaging.

**Q: Does the ink bleed through the page of a word search book?**
A: No Dennis, it works great, does t bleed through. I use a highlighter to find the words and a Bic to decode the message I use the Bic’s for writing everyday. Love them.
