    Paper Mate 89465 Profile Retractable Ballpoint Pens, Bold (1.4mm), Black, 12 Count (Package May Vary)

    • I don't like most fine points for that reason, but even the medium does not give me a dark enough line
    • I like the bold point on them also.
    • Nice thick ball point that makes my writing look neat and nice
    • so i found the 1.4 point thickness a little difficult to work with at times
    • I like a medium point, but maybe I'll get used to this thicker foot print
    • They don't have a fine point and they do seem to empty faster than other pens, but that is probably why they work so well.
    • Favorite black ball point pen for our business.
    • Big points let the ink flow, and Paper Mate doesn't clog
    • This one has become a 7 out of 10.Uni-ball Jetstream RT Bold Point Retractable Roller Ball
    • I find most other ball pens to be too sharp points for my use.
    • Slower writers should look for a finer point.
    • Can't stand gel pens or pens with the fine point on them
    • I agree with another reviewer that this pen can benefit from a finer point
    • Compared to the Profile, the Zebra feels like a fine point, tending to "cut into" the paper surface and, as a result, resisting the writer who presses hard.
    • Let me explain:Regular fine point pens with liquid ink do not fare well for us lefties
    • that's a good point
    • The 1.4 size gives a darker ink imprint than the fine point pens.
    • I like that they are not too fine point and write a good, solid line.
    • I have always been using Pilot ballpens, G2 in particular, Pilot G2 Fine Point, Black Gel Ink Pens, Box of 12 (31020)
    • so i found the 1.4 point thickness a little difficult to work with at times
    • Fine points have their place, and medium points are fine, but there's nothing like the smooth feel of this wider point as it writes
    • Unless you have to make a point (pardon the pun) of using 'fine' point pens, I really believe you'll fall in love with this
    • Decent pens, only wish the points were more fine.
    • Two of the pens have jammed and won't retract the point.
    • They're thick and comfortable, some people like gel thin point pens which i hate so these are perfect
    • I don't like most fine points for that reason, but even the medium does not give me a dark enough line
    • Fifth, I like the nice bold 1.4mm point
    • They write nice and smoothly, and I like the bold point
    • If you like a medium point I would recommend this pen!
    • Do wish that it came in a extra fine point though.
    • It you like fine point you probably will not like there
    • The only downside, and the reason I give them four instead of five stars, is that I wish they were pointed on the end for those situations when I need a really fine point pen.
    • That said, they are a little bit on the bold side -- to the point that it's difficult to write in very small space -- and the grips sometimes start to stretch and slide around near each pen's end-of-life
    • Which leads to mistaken identity and false accusations and finger pointing
    • These are great pens at a great price point.
    • They're functional, but I liked the larger barrel size and bold point of the previous Profile pen.
    • The writing is very smooth and if you like pens that aren't fine point, this pen is worth a try, especially for the price.
    • They write very well on all services because of the thicc point of the pen, whereas my G2s were not performing as well with a finer point
    • Just wanted to try this higher-end type of pen since I usually just get the cheap-o
    • Fantastic I love this pens
