I prefer Black Pens, but really like using these particular 1.6 mm Blue BOX Velocity pens
I have enjoyed BIC Velocity 1.6mm Bold point Black pens for several years. Since I am really a fan of the Bold 1.6ers, I decided to try the BOLD Point 1.6mm Blue Velocity pens. I enjoy it better than thinner pens. I think arthritic or people with nerve damage would find these pens easier to grip. In comparison to the ZEBRA F301 Stainless Steel 0.7mm Fine point these VELOCITY pens are lighter weight. This is my first experience with these Blue pens and while I like the Black BOLD more, I really am enjoying writing with this Smooth gliding pen. I write a great deal at work & for pleasure away from work. This 12 Pack will be a nice addition to my Pen Collection. I will be using them everyday. With twelve I can have a few at home, a few at work, and a few in my bag, as well as one or two in the car. I find myself being able to both write in cursive and easily print with these pens. The retractable point means less accidental ink stains on my clothes, in my bag, on the bed, the couch upholstery, or on my hands. I recommend without reservation to people who like writing with a thicker pen. It's a very smooth writing pen exactly what I need daily. I hope you enjoy using these Blue pens as much as I do. Too bad it's bedtime I could easily write a few more hours with this pen. Not enjoying tonight's humidity though. I'm putting a few pens in my bag for work right now, as well as taking a couple upstairs. Have a good night - looking forward to using one of these at work tomorrow. Or maybe I'll stay up a little longer to write up a couple reviews of books I recently completed. Read more
