Pilot VBall Liquid Ink Rolling Ball Stick Pens, Extra Fine Point, Black Ink, 12-Pack (35200)

The media could not be loaded. And that period will show up with a single tap of the pen. Go ahead, get out a ball point pen and try making a period as a dot, not as a tiny line. Just stick the ball point to the page and lift off. Sometimes you get nothing, sometimes you get that little half ring looking shape from the ink residue left over from the previous stroke. With this pen, you get a period. A little perfect dot of ink (see video, the noise is my fish tank).This is the best pen you will ever use. Once you start writing with it, you won't want to put it down. I started using this pen in high school, and never looked back for over 10 years. (There was a time I thought they discontinued it because they stopped selling it in stores, and I literally was never happy writing. I only tolerated pens until I found this one online again).The quality of strokes from the pen is beyond compare. There is no skipping, there is no little dead spot at the beginning of a stroke like you get with other ball points (BiC is bad about this). The ink is even from the moment the pen touches paper to the moment it lifts off. You can even get incredibly thin lines. I have tried to make it skip by just letting the pen hang from my hand and applying no extra pressure (outside of gravity) to the page and drug it across the paper. Worked just fine, a continuous line (see video). Another quality is the ink is DARK. Its not the light grey some companies are calling black (Zebra). I use this at home and at work, and its the only one I use. Its the only one you should use too.

I was gifted a Pilot Vball in Purple color and it was such a joy to use that I purchased this 12 back in black ink for more practical daily use. They are now my favorite pen! Very easy to write with, nice fine point, doesn't smear or smudge on normal paper. Be careful on any paper that has a glossy finish though as liquid style gel ink pens might have a harder time drying without smudging. At first I thought the removable cap might be annoying (I'm used to click pens) - but I actually really like writing with this pen with the cap set aside, as the shorter length and more condensed weight makes the pen feel very balanced. I'll keep using these pens exclusively until I find something I like better!

I love these pens!!! They don’t leak or smudge, the ink quality is so good!!! Very smooth writing pen!! Beautiful purple ink!!!

Smooth writting, I'm in love with this pen.

Love the color ... love how easily the ink flows. And, feel the ink is helpful for preventing check forgery from occurring. I'm unsure about that. However, recently received a piece of mail back. Envelope had been opened. Check had not been altered.

I've always loved this model of pen but this box was inconsistant. It had a few pens that skipped enough to be annoying and hard to use.

Great pen

The product came in a timely manner.Worked very well
