I enjoy writing. However, my handwriting has never been of the type that I wish it were. Often best described as illegible, even by my own descriptor. Perhaps that is why I tend to feel that less-is-more, with regard to my own penmanship. It doesn't help that i am left-handed, so that itself can tend to creating a smeary appearance to my writing with pens that tend to lay down a bit more ink and write with a thicker line.This pen tends to maintain a very nice smooth ink flow, that is most pleasant to use. One of the things that must be properly balanced by fine-tipped pens, (in my opinion) is the tendency for many such finer-pointed pens to tend to feel a bit, 'scratchier,' if you will. These have a smooth, non-scratchy flow, that glides smoothly and evenly, and, with the premise of less-being more, with respect to my own writing, I do tend to feel that they enable my writing to look just a bit better. Irrespective of how it actually appears, it is a delight to write with these pens, due to the overall smoothness and the minimal amount of ink flow that it releases when one writes with them. This without having any feel of the pen seeming scratchy or less-than-smooth. They may very well be a new fave for you, if you try them. I highly recommend them.

I absolutely love these pens and so do people at my work (they keep disappearing but fortunately the price is reasonable, and I adore my coworkers, so I don't mind). I've always been a fan of gel pens as I think they glide well over paper, and the fine point tip makes them great for my smallish handwriting. Occasionally there's a one in the lot that seems to be dried out, but for the most part these function well. I like that they are more lightweight and have a slimmer body than most of the other gel pens on the market so I can write pretty quickly with these (I work in medicine so writing fast is a skill and necessity). I'm already on my second box of these and probably will purchase more in the future.

The pens themselves are an incredible value. I am always looking for fine pens and got these to stop my daughter from stealing my Pentel Hybrid Technica's - my wife and other kids (who have all disparaged fine pens -> these are the people who by the big packs of .7 mm pens at Costco) love these pens. I've ordered multiple boxes and they've all been great.I personally don't like the pen body. The plastic is very brittle. The lid is pretty poor as well. The pen insert is wonderful though. Fine, smooth writing. The ink takes a bit too dry, so my lefty has a bit of smudging, but if you are right handed you shouldn't have any issues with that. No issues with bleed through on standard copy paper or sketch pad paper.

I'm critical with pens and I must say I'm thoroughly surprised with this brand. It's the first time I tried this pen and brand, randomly running across it when I was looking for a 0.3mm pen. Unfortunately, the exact pen I was looking to repurchase is a bit pricey so I decided to try this because of: 1) the thickness was just a smudge over what I was looking for and I figured the difference shouldn't be too drastic and 2) the price was great for the amount. I'm glad I took the risk. The thickness is just right, the ink rolls out smooth without drowning your paper like most gel pens, and the quality of the pen overall is great. Highly recommend it if you're looking for a pen experience similar to mine, this pen is built well-enough that it inspires me to write more because it is a joy to use!

I write a lot and this pen is excellent. The ink quality is great and flows well. Don't have to exert a lot of pressure. The nib is fine but not too fine so handwriting looks neat. I've had strangers who borrowed my pen comment on how nice the writing experience was. Only con is that the ink takes a little bit to dry and can smudge easily during that window. I will def re-order.

These pens are scrumptious! The ink is gorgeous, not too scratchy while writing. Handwriting looks like it was done with a dip pen. I love the weight in my hand, it is a perfect medium weight with a wider barrel and long length. I will be buying more. I hope this company will start making pens in brown and orange ink too.

OK, so I'm really snooty about pens. I'm not a pro artist but I am an editor. I also do the old-fashioned thing: writing by hand on highly calendared paper as well as composing direct to the screen. My quest to find a .35, .38, or .4 liquid or gel rollerball—retractable or not—may have ended here. I must add that the Chinese imports are all fairly equal in quality. The most important point for me was the consistent quality, and being able to stick to the claimed .35 or .38 in box after box of pens. They also keep writing if you leave them uncapped for as much as a week; that's been my experience. I only use micro tips, with ink that dries VERY quickly as these do. This BEMLP (whatever the H that means; they've all resorted to this kind of naming rather than having Westerners ruin the real pronunciation) is one of my favorites and when Amazon has them in black or blue, buy them as supply is there and not there, supply chain fractures or not. I heartily recommend them.

Ordered black but received a combo box of red, blue and black. Wasn't ideal.... but the pens write well and the thinness and smoothness where what I was looking for.
