Ballpoint Pen Fine Black (Pack of 20)

pens work well

I ordered these pens to compare with my normal Bic fine black ballpoint pens. Initially, they seemed to have a somewhat scratchy feel but I've got used to them in time and have grown to like them a lot. It mentions 0.4 as the size, which I assume is 0.4mm tip, compared with 0.8mm for Bic....good for very fine writing and figurework. Careful with the screw-off cap at the top of the pen, which enables a refill (if there are spares). It can come loose and allow the nib to retract inside the shaft of the pen, which happened once to me; keep it tightly done up. What I do like, is that they have an extra metal ring above the nib, which should strengthen the pen and prevent the plastic breaking around the nib area. This often happens on other pens I've used. I then have to put sticky tape around the base of the pen, which doesn't look or feel good. These pens also have ribbing on the plastic shaft to help with gripping the pen...a nice touch. At first I didn't like the pens but now I feel very positive about them.

Nice fine pens for a good price

Lightweight pen, fine ballpoint suits my style of writing.

Excellent value.

They're quite scratchy but are handy to have in a bag. Wouldn't use them for anything that needed really neat handwriting but good for a crossword etc

Lovely writing pens

Ease of use when I write a notepad no break on stick on pens
