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

I am a loyal customer to these pens for many years. . I like the ink, size and grip. The ink flows freely and they last a good while. When I go to the store to replace my pens, I specifically look for these. No other brand has been so consistent with their pens. I can tell you they have changed names over the years but the quality of the 1.6m blue pens cannot be beat.

Pen works great. Does not bleed through when I am taking notes on my lecture courses. Comfortable feel and grip. Does not wear my hand out after writing with it for a few hours. Ink lasted longer than I though it would when using it to perform all my college assignments and note taking.

I love the grip. Very easy to write with these pens.

These are great pens at a great price. My husband is left-handed and has a hard time with gel pens because the ink gets everywhere. These pens write smoothly with no mess.

I LOVE these pens! Back in the day they were called BIC Velocity I believe, and you could buy them in store. Today I can only find them online, but they're worth ordering. These are the smoothest freaking pens I've ever used, and I love the bold lines. Most pens tend to feel “scratchy” or the lines are too thin— often times they'll bleed through the paper. Not these pens though! I highly recommend them to anyone willing to listen.

FINALLY, I FOUND a GREAT pen that comes in BOLD BLUE ink %26 write's the SO SMOOTH !!! It's fairly comfortable to hold, although personally I would like it even more if the pen had a bigger %26 cushier grip. So many pens, the grip's are so small making it hard for me to hold %26 cause my hand to cramp up if I have very much to have to write. But this one does write extremely smooth. It's the best I've found so far !!! I'd give it 5 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 if only the grip was more comfy - bigger %26 softer. I found the value very worth it as well. Usually if I find one I like I'm not able to find it again when it runs low. So I bought the box of them this time.

- Pros: These pens write beautifully and bold. They also feel very comfortable in the hand. Pretty good price when on sale. - Con: Two of the 12 pens in the box won't retract properly. I checked the springs and they seemed ok so am not sure what make them stuck. I don't feel like this is bad enough to return the whole box, but enough to have a slight frustration (2/12 = 16.67% failure)

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.

The pens look used! Most were all clicked open. NONE had the little plastic tip that shows a pen has never been used. One has red paint on it. Most look dirty! I don't see where I ordered USED pens. Came out of box like photo.
