Pentel EnerGel-X Retractable Liquid Gel Pen 0 7 mm Medium Line Black Ink Box of 12 BL107-A

In the past 10+ years I have tried every gel pen I could get my hands on and these pens are the best I have tried so far. Here's why. What I like: - They write smoothly on most paper I've used them on. These pens do not feel scratchy or skip like other gel pens I've used. - The ink lasts a long time and never seems to dry up. - Smearing is always a problem with gel pens, but I rarely get smearing with these. I'm not saying it can't or won't happen though. - I like to use black pens and the color on these is a dark black, not a grayish color like other pens. - The case of the pens, even though made of plastic, are of good quality. The fit of the rubber part is grippy and comfortable. - The price of these were about $1 a pen and previously I found them on sale for $1.33 (half off at $4.00 for 3) at one of the local office supply stores, so the price was right. What I didn't like: - First time I received these pens they came in a box, like in the picture, and all appeared to be in NEW condition. The second order I received came wrapped up in a rubber band and some of the protective plastic tips were off of half of them, making me wonder if these pens were used or not. I didn't contact the seller to send them back as I didn't want the hassle of sending them back. I have literally tried every gel pen I could get my hands on and I like these the best so far. I would recommend just getting a couple to try out first before going for the multipak. Read more

I fell in love with Pentel EnerGel pens when I first tried them... in my opinion they are the best gel pens out there. The variety I used to buy were pretty expensive; sold in two packs and a little more stylish than these are. BUT then I found out that these are the same exact ink with same amount of smoothness, just in a different looking pen case. I actually think I prefer the simplicity of these compared to the ones I used to buy. Much cheaper than the others, especially when bought in a 12 pack like these. I had enough to share with my coworkers and they all loved them! These are definitely my go-to pens when it comes to charting (nurses notes)!! Read more

My husband and I fight over these because of how well they write. The flow is really nice and lasts a long while. Read more

This is the only pen I use since I am a lefty. I think this package was a bad batch. All of the pens other than 1 dried up the same day of 1st use. Read more

These pens are amazing. I use them to fill out assessments at work and every single time a nurse uses it to sign my assessment she compliments the pen Read more
