These SAKURA Gelly Roll Classic medium point pens write incredibly smoothly with no skipping or scratching. The ink is bold, vibrant, and consistent, and the colors show up beautifully on both white and colored paper. The medium point is perfect for everyday writing, journaling, and planners — bold but still precise. They dry quickly and don’t smear once set, which makes them easy to use for longer writing sessions. Great quality gel pens that perform exactly as expected. Highly recommend. Read more

Gelly Roll pens are the best pens. They are never clumpy nor do they skip ink. I have loved these pens for 30 years. Now, in this set, you get all the colors for making your own cards, drawing and writing letters. Read more

Sakura's Gelly Roll gel pens are my favorite, hands down! (or thumbs up!) I bought my first two sets at a craft store when the black paper craze was still going strong. I had lots of paper, no pens! I shelled out a bit more than I really wanted to for two sets of 10 pens. Turns out they were 'repackaged' mix and match, though all of them worked. However, I fell in love! THIS set is perfect! This CLASSIC collection of 10 medium point pens, including basic colors and some fun extras, writes to perfection! I frequently use other Gelly Roll pens (such as Moonlight and Metallic), but I don't like to buy when they're much over $1 a pen (might have to raise that a little...) so when these went on sale from one of my favorite sellers, TCP Global corp, I jumped! This set isn't specialized like the metallic or glittery pens, or flourescent/glow in the dark like the Moonlight pens (I don't use them for that feature, they are simply great opaque gelly pens with good coverage and look like paint when you're done!). Classic is exactly what they are. They're not made to write on dark paper, they don't puff up or glaze or swirl, they're just great pens. I also use Sakura's Pigma Micron pens, though I haven't been working with them for long. I wanted some ink that came close to that standard without costing quite as much per pen. I'm coloring in tiny areas in patterns from a coloring book called "Zendoodles" (amazon purchase), and was upset when all the ink in my red #01 pigma micron ran out! So I decided that perhaps the gelly roll pens, except for tiniest places, would work just as well, or better, for filling in color. They do, and dry almost as quickly as the Pigma Micron pens, though they don't come in different widths of line or tip. (Classic gelly roll tip is 0.8mm, the line is 0.4mm, classified as 'medium' by Sakura). In any case, I can now save my extra special pens for lines and tiny areas, and use these for other filling-in needs. They also make great diary pens-they'll write on almost any type or quality of paper, and once dry, are colorfast, acid free, etc. Archival quality, in other words! So if you want some basic-but never plain-gel pens for multi-purpose use, these are the ones to get! No color repeats, and the black, blue and green pens are advertised as being good for writing checks (fraud prevention) though I've never used them for that purpose. Sakura's pens are made in Japan, though the company is called 'Sakura of America' here in the States. The Japanese and Germans have a tie on technically precise, quality pens, in my opinion. If I find true American made pens, I'll compare and see how they stand up, but right now they're all (as far as I've seen) "made in China" and that won't do for my art work! Five stars and lots of brilliant color! Read more

These pens are REALLY good. They write smoothly and stay true to their colors on their caps. Although, I did have some problems with some of the pens. I don't know if this just happened to my set, but most of the pens would skip (if you don't know what skip means, then it is when the pen stops writing when your pen is on the paper) when I was writing. It was annoying at first, but I got used to it after a while. PROS- Writes smoothly True colors Vibrant colors CONS- Skips while writing Smears a lot Overall, these pens are a great choice if you want to have them for drawing or just using them like a normal pen. It does take a while to get used to the time it takes for the ink to dry, but I think that it's worth it. The pens do skip occasionally and it is annoying to go back and replace the part that the pen skipped over, but I would still recommend these pens for anyone. Read more

These are my all-time favorite black gel pen. I've used probably every kind on the market and I like the quality and functionality of these. I do mixed media art and oftentimes draw or use these for Mark making over acrylic paint and the ink goes on smooth and dark every time. My art box always has a handful of these and the brand's white pens. Read more
