BIC Glide Bold Retractable Ball Pen, Black, 1.6mm Bold Point, 12 Pack

I used this pen at the desk of a friend and stole it; I used it almost every day for 2 years, and it finally ran out of ink. Purchased this box, and since delivery, 3 have been taken from me by people commenting on how easily it glides and just the right amount of ink. This is an excellent pen; just buy it by the box.

I like how these pens are bold and how smooth they write. I ordered them in in black and blue. If you aren't careful they can smear a little because the thick line of ink seems to take a bit more time to dry. I feel like my handwriting looks neater when I write with a thicker point pen, so these are my favorite pens so far. I hoard these pens for myself at home and in the office. I will purchase these again.

a very nice pen and my first time seeing a Bic brand pen that's mechanical, it writes well, nice and smooth

I absolutely LOVE this pen! The smooth writing makes you feel like writing on air. No more pressing down on the paper, this is now my favorite writing instrument!

Good ink and easy for sight disadvantaged to read

I purchased this pen for the first time hoping it would give easier, smooth flow onto the paper. I was not disappointed. This pen has a terrific grip that allows better controlled movement without stressing hand/carpal tunnel. I was quite pleased with this product and it exceeded my expectations with it's gliding action.

Excellent writing instrument!

The first time I used one of these pens, I was impressed. The pen glided across the paper, and the ink was dark and bold. I LOVED it. So, I thought wow.. I've really got to get some more of these pens. They're awesome, so I ordered a box of them. After using a few of them, I'm not as impressed as I was when I first tried it. I've found that sometimes they stick while writing.. they don't always glide like I originally thought or expected them too. Overall, they're ok. I love the dark print, but I hate when they stop while I'm writing with them. It's a little aggravating. Most of the time I just write with the cheap bic pens.

The lines and writing are NOT BOLD. It writes like an ordinary fine tip pen. I'm disappointed. Also, what I was shipped is not what is pictured above this review. I got the ones with a golden lable that's not marked "bold."

Terrible pens. They leak. I end up with those lovely big blobs of blue ink as I'm writing. I have learned to keep them upright so I don't get ink all over my bag. I guess you get what you pay for... But I would never buy these pens again. I am one of those people that never throws anything away if I can find a way to use them. As soon as I have time to order more pens, these are going in the trash.
