Mr. PenRetractable Gel Pens, 12 Pack, Morandi and Vintage Barrels, Black Ink, Fast Dry, Fine Point 0.5mm, Cute and Aesthetic for Journaling

Love these pens! Overall the pen is aesthetically pleasing and works well, at an affordable price!Everything about them is just awesome, so I have purchased them multiple times. They come in numerous different colors (all black ink though unless it says otherwise just fyi) to choose from. They are well-packaged for shipment/storage/purchase as well. The pen feels really soft and smooth when held and is light weight so it doesn't even leave a dent in my paperwork when sitting too long or feel too clunky when held. The 0.5mm fine ballpoint size allows me to write very smoothly and with small lettering if I choose. I have actually had other coworkers ask me if they can borrow my pen specifically because it can write in small spaces on diagrams that a regular pen just couldn't due to the ball point size. The clip has a quiet rolling ball that might be soothing to someone who fidgets, pen-clicks, or is simply bored at a meeting. The clip is sturdy and the pen is surprisingly well-built, strong, and easy to clean, which is a must for a mechanic like myself because sometimes I'm signing paperwork in the office and other times I need to write something quick on my hand before I forget. I love their versatility because sometimes it's only one or the other with pens: ones that write well on paper don't write well on skin and others that write well on skin smear too much on paper.There's really not anything to complain about, except that maybe if you were expecting colored ink to match the pen color, they only have black ink, unless it says otherwise in the description. I also wish they would sell refills (maybe they do and I just haven't found it yet, because the pen can be taken apart). Just FYI, all these pens are all ballpoint as far as I've seen, so if you're looking for felt-tip at a 0.5mm/0.7mm size, I recommend Sakura Pigma Micron pens instead.EDIT: To anyone wondering why I would EVER write on my hand instead of a notepad, there is a valid reason! Where I work as a mechanic, all tools and non-tool items are heavily controlled to prevent things being broken off and/or left behind in something. Pens are the ONLY exception as long as they pass inspection. By that I mean that they have to pass certain criteria to be taken into the workshop area (not the office spaces and such, but where the vehicles are actually worked on). Not even phones are allowed past that point and are left with someone in the office who will send someone else out to notify me if I receive a call or text. This inspection includes things such as making sure the only thing I have on me is a pen, and that the the pen type has limited parts (less parts building the assembly of the pen = less things to possibly break off) and nothing unnecessary like charms dangling from it. Everywhere I go I must also check that I still have my pen and that nothing is missing from it either; when I leave for a job, when I arrive at the vehicle, when I finish the work (before closing-up all panels with hardware etc), and when the job is complete (vehicle is ready for customer) before leaving that job for either the office spaces or another job. This may seem really weird or tedious but it is to help keep people safe (both mechanics and customers alike) and to prevent any damage to the vehicles, parts, or our equipment. These same inspections happen with our tools and equipment for the same reason. This Quality Assurance process has been found to be very effective at preventing accidents.Edit TLDR: I write on my hand because otherwise I would have to write on my sleeve due to the restrictions of my job

I have truly never felt the need to leave a review on Amazon before as I’ve never purchased a product that warranted a review. These pens are incredible. I’ve absolutely been a writing implement snob since I was in elementary school. If a pen doesn’t cut it, then I’m not interested at all. This pen checks every box. The ink is bold but doesn’t bleed. It doesn’t skip at all or make any scratching. I love how the tip curves inward on the sides to make a nice fine point that you can see around and write very precisely (I have very small handwriting). The barrel is neither too skinny nor too large and is incredibly smooth due to the soft silicone feeling but not at all slippery like some pens can be. Not to mention they are really really cute to look at. Am I a little embarrassed to be leaving this long review on a pack of pens? Perhaps. But I’m 100% going to be purchasing these again. Worth every cent!

I love pretty pens that look great and write great! No smear, feels great on the fingers, and love how it writes on paper. Add this to your collection if you just love stationary!

A coworker at a job told me about these pens. I don't usually buy fine tip pens, as I usually prefer ball point pens, but I really like these pens. They write really well and the ink flow is great. A smooth writing experience. And the pens feel really great. I Love fun pens and these are fun pens. I use them for letter writing. So thank you for another great pen. Will most likely purchase again in the future and I have already suggested them to a friend.

I’m a nurse, so pens are one of my most sacred tools and all nurses have a bond with their pens like no other. If you borrow it, you can be assured we will hunt you down if it wasn’t returned in a timely manner. Okay, so these pens write incredibly! Love the fine point gel, smooth precision, no smears and oddly I think it can elevate anyone’s handwriting. Soft, silicone-y feel to it. And there’s no denying its aesthetically pleasing appearance in all the pastel colors! Thought I had the cutest pens with superior performance, until a coworker complimented them and asked where I got them. Then it was like a rapidly growing movement, sooooooooo many coworkers with my exact cute pens…If you haven’t ordered them already, you will. Undoubtedly.

Love these pens! They are the smoothest to write with and the matte texture is so comfortable for your hand. Favorite pens!

The media could not be loaded. These Mr. Pen gel pens are great for Bible notes and journaling. They have a rich deep black ink, are quick drying and after they've had 30-60 seconds to dry, are smudge free with highlighters and water. Be warned though, even if they are not smudging with your finger, if you don't give them the extra time, they will smudge when you highlight over them.There is some shadowing, which is pretty common with most pens in Bible pages, but just wanted to point that out as well. And with such a small tip, you can write very small if needed, which is helpful in small spaces.I took off one star because it seems like sometimes the ink pools at the tip of the pen and creates a little blob when you write. Give that a little extra time to dry or it will smear. It doesn't happen often, but often enought I thought I should mention it.Overall, these are great pens for Bibles, journals or wherever you need to write.

These are my new favorite pens! They are lovely colors, easy to hold, lightweight, write smoothly and dry quickly. I love the fine print they make. Perfect for journaling or my endless lists. A quality pen for a reasonable price. Woot! 🤩
