Fine product - these pens have been my favorite for about 20 years. A subtle thing - when I have one of these gliding across paper, the ideas just seem to flow. Not the case with ball points or mechanical pencils. A good fountain pen like a Parker comes close.

Downsides:
- water smudges the writing
- if you forget and leave the cap off, they dry out quickly
- cursive letters fill in - I've had secretaries complain that they couldn't tell my 'a' from 'e'

They changed the Flair :(

The grooves are gone at the grip.

Price increased for an inferior product.

Disappointing.

Will look for the old design.

          Comments about Paper Mate® Flair� Felt-Tip Pens, Medium Point, Black, Dozen:

          I'm always looking for really cool drawing tools and these pens are fantastic. Unlike Sharpies which bleed through to the back of the paper, Flairs give an intense black line without the smell or bleed-through. They also don't change color like Sharpie's often do. They are terrific for stippling or cross-hatching and never change intensity or line shape as you're using them. I highly recommend their use by novices and professionals alike. They are really great on a smooth bond paper. They are not permanent so cannot be used as an outliner for other water-soluble color.

                Comments about Paper Mate® Flair� Felt-Tip Pens, Medium Point, Black, Dozen:

                I have tried many pens for writing and drawing and the black Flair is the best for line drawing. It has a bolder line and the ink is wonderfully dense and consistent. I've never had a problem with a Flair skipping or dragging. The points are excellent and, unlike some felt tip pens, will never separate or get fuzzy. I've been using them for years and I'm delighted they are still being produced.

                    The image on the website for the black felt tip pens does NOT have a point guard. The image for the red felt tip pens DOES have a point guard. I am specifically looking for the black felt tip WITH point guard. Are the pens that would ship with or with out the white plastic point guard?
