Such smooth writing and the ink dries quickly

I'm not a big fan of fine point pens but it writes well and the ink is nice and dark

Decent pens, the ink gets jammed up a lot and causes a lot of skipping

I love the fine blue ink

The ink is very consistent even at odd angles.

I love how the tip is just 0.5, and the ink is dark and smooth without coming out too thick or in clumps

These pens are the best if you like extra fine lines and gel ink

Dries very very quickly (doodled randomly everyday just to try to smear the ink but just laugh at how fast it dried)3

I can't say much about the build quality or how well the ink will protect you from something like check or signature fraud, though, so consider your options more carefully if that's what you're worried about

I would highly recommend it to anyone who loves fine ink pens and enjoys the traditional way of hand-writings.

Can you located another set with darker red ink for me to order?William RandolphPoste 3-7-2018

The good:-The pens started out writing well -- they flow smoothly across the paper and let out a decent stream of solid ink

The ink doesn't smear or smudge

These pens are fantastic!Ink dries in seconds, solid lines (no skips), and no bleed through.

The ink doesn't smudge, and the pen makes a precise, smooth, fine red line for getting marks into all those tight spaces between letters

Smooth writing, consistent ink flow with no "skips" or "blank spots", flows across the paper with little resistence, nice bold ink colors.

Clean and consistent ink lines

Quick drying ink and grip makes it easy to to hold and write with.

No smearing, very smooth, bright ink - love it!!!

Fine line ink flows beautifully from these pens.

Some of the pens do not flow very well, even after shaking up the ink.

The mixture of inks provides a smooth print and I haven't had any problems like encountered with traditional ballpoints where the ink "stopped working"

I almost hate writing with any other pens, the ink comes out smoothly and even though it's a 0.7 it isn't super thick.

This is a really great fine point that the ink is consistent and doesn't smear.

no ink splatts, love the thin needle tip (0.5) and the different colors ....

The ink dries quickly, does not smear, and rarely goops up on the end

I can't even calculate how much money I have spent on these pens over the years because they do lose their ink rather rapidly

The EnerGel ink is more pigmented and the ink is intensely black (which I like)

This pen writes effortlessly and has very vivid ink.

The ink flows smoothly, and never smears, which is amazing

In terms of writing quality, It is very smooth, gives a good ink amount, and is comfortable in the hands of a 6'2" man

My favorite pens for work-- the only complaint would be having to replace the ink kind of frequently sucks.

This is a great inexpensive blue ink pen.

Aside from the beautiful purple ink, they write great!

Like the smooth flowing ink and the bright vibrant blue color

These are still my favorite pens because the pen itself looks good and sleek, and the ink is great and dries very quickly.

I really love the ink

Ink is fantastic

The ink, while rich, can sometimes bleed through the thinnest of papers.

Love the combination of responsive ink and just the right amount of resistance.

And it's for real; the ink won't smear and leave the side of your pinky/

Ink flows well and dries quick

SUMMARYAgain, great pens, my favorite, but be aware that the rich ink is prone to smear slightly, and has a tendency to bleed through thin paper.

I love the fine line and easy ink flow.

very smooth flowing ink, easy on the hand.at work i have to use pens all day long, writing reports, running meetings with lots of signatures needed.

Flows just as well as comparable liquid ink

So, to have a fine red ink pen that doesn't skip or smudge was essential

These are my favorite ink pens

Love the 0.5mm size and the ink looks very nice and dries quickly.

The ink is fast, flows smoothly and does not bleed through

The ink is absolutely, reliably consistent, and the needle-tip is precise

Nice ink

The ink, while rich, can sometimes bleed through the thinnest of papers.

There are really no better ink pens on the market today

so there's no smeared ink when you're writing

The blue ink is just as good, as I have both.

No smearing with my left hand writing...smooth ink - love it!

The only half-negative thing I can say is that the ink glides so fast that my handwriting seems almost shaky, compared to when I write with "stickier" inks or pencils, which tend to slow my writing down

Great ink flow, very very

That being said, the ink is absolutely amazing

Great, smooth-writing pens with super fast-drying ink

The ink is smooth and black, dries quickly and looks great

Ink smears a bit if you're left-handed.

I love the ink in these expensive pens because Im a lefty and the ink drys quickly

The ink dries so quickly and does not smear at all, even the second you write.

I love the fine tip on these pens, and the ink is very smooth and easy to write with.

The ink is also such a deep, dark, black that other black inks might seem dull and lifeless by comparison

Narrow lines, no smudging, and clean ink flow.

Smooth flowing ink that doesn't glob up or come out too heavily on the page (causing smears) - these pens work beautifully for me

Great price, ink, and durability.

No smearing, very smooth, bright ink - love it!!!

So I am ALWAYS on the look out for a GOOD pen to help me with a decent grip, good inks/gel inks, varieties of color of inks, and fineness of the tips for a particular writing style

If you like to write fast, gel ink is probably the right ink for you.

I love the Gel ink and its easy flow onto paper

And the purple ink is beautiful

These pens are fantastic!Ink dries in seconds, solid lines (no skips), and no bleed through.

The ink doesn't smear or smudge

Plus it writes in some funny gel ink

Nice ink flow at all times, no skips, no smudges, no gobs of ink.

No smearing, very smooth, bright ink - love it!!!

Diameter (grip) = 10.9 mm; Length = 14.8 cm; Weight = 0.45 oz; ink composition = dye-basedThe same quick drying, smudge resistant ink that's found in the conical tip pens but with a needle-point tip for better precision.

Good, solid ink colors and a smooth-gliding line--awesome!

The ink itself is great, but the pen barrel is made of cheap plastic and breaks easily

Ink flows a little more smoothly and I love the needle tip

As with all gel pens, the ink gets depleted faster than ballpoint or liquid rollerball ink, and medium point of course uses more ink than fine point.

5 years ago, i liked the energel ink, but i think pentel messed them up.

Good ink flow, they look snazzy, and the purple color is awesome

Perfect ink flow.

The ink is bright instead of dull, like most gel pens.

With other brands .5 can feel a little too fine, like I'm not getting enough ink out with each stroke, but these produce a nice even flow no matter if I'm writing with a lot of pressure or scribbling something down quickly

Smooth not scratchy, vivid ink.

This pen is very high quality, writes smoothly, ink dries fast, doesn't smudge, run or smear, and feels nice in your hand.

These are good quality and the ink flows well

But for some reason, the purple ink really appeals to me

Loved the dark ink and smooth flow.

The ink flows like liquid but does not run like a Gel.

good flow, smooth, decent quality ink

The ink simply does not smear

The ink is very dark and if the paper is too thin it will go through but for regular school notebook type of papers, these are fine.

The writing is extremely smooth, and the ink dries very quickly and never smudges on paper or my hands

Smooth, even ink application

Ink flows well, and is lovely to write with

My favorite ink pens

As a nurse who doesn’t have the luxery of electric charting I need a good pen and this has fulfilled all my dreams of tiny print and solid ink!

I've also tried Ink Joy Gel, but it bleeds thru paper and it fails to write even with more than half of ink left!

Fine lines and nice ink flow, and very comfortable to hold.

I love the needle tip and the ink is great.

PROS:● Excellent overall; writes smoothly; never skips, which is something many competitive gel-ink

The ink comes out smooth and consistent

The ink dries up quickly therefore no smudges

The ink is perfect and doesn’t bleed

Love the gel ink and the .5mm tip, but the pen's upper barrel cracks where the lower barrel screws in

The ink in this pen is absolutely phenomenal, not to mention 1/30th the price of my Namiki pen

The ink doesn't smear all over like so many of the gel pens, mainly because the point is such a fine point

It writes very smoothly and the ink is nice and dark

Other pens I've tried (liquid/gel types) would smear ink across the side of my hand and on paper, not the case with this pen

The ink is so smooth.

The barrel is light, the ink is silky smooth, and it dries quickly.

Loved the dark ink and smooth flow.

The ink was lovely but the pens would not stay together

Still the best gel-ink in my mind.

Get blue ink though because for some reason the black ink pools at the tip of the pen and smudges when using it

Smooth not scratchy, vivid ink.

These pens feel good in your hand as you write, and the ink flows smoothly and does not smear.

Not only that, but the lines are confidently darker than the uni-ball Vision and on par with the Precise V5 ink, but without the frequent bleeding, pooling, and slow drying that you sometimes get from liquid inks - Pilot is a particularly egregious offender here if you don't spring for expensive stationery

The ink is smooth every time and every day I use it

It is cool because the ink is gel like, but super thin and drys fast.

Don't like purple ink

Better than the G2 hands down the ink smears like crazy and preferred over the signo 207 micros as they get a bit scratchy in 0.5mm size

The ink dries relatively quickly compared to other gel pens and doesn't bleed through too easy.
