As you can imagine, there are no shortage of gel pens available to choose from. There are many pricey "fine pens" that sell for as high as $40 or more at Staples. But, you need not spend anywhere near that for a good pen. The Energel pens have the most perfect, butter smooth ink flow I've ever experienced in a gel pen. They write better than Pilot's G-2 pens. Trust me, I've tried nearly every pen you might find in a Staples and the only pens that come close for overall performance are the Staedtler pens. But the Alloy Finish Energel is more than just a good pen. It's stylish and sleek. I've gotten as many compliments about it's looks as my $30 Cross gel pen. The alloy Energel costs about [$]!!! If you are looking for a quality pen with style to match, save yourself some cash and buy the Energel alloy gel pen.

was disappointed because this pen

Found that the pen had a tendency to drag when writing on paper. Not smooth as I had wanted it to be.

      Comments about Pentel� EnerGel� Alloy Retractable Gel Pen, Silver Barrel, Medium Point, Black, Each:

      Let me begin by saying, I LOVE A GOOD PEN!!!!
      This pen is the first pen I've bought where I only buy replacement
      ink refills.
      The gel ink writes so smooth and the pen feels great in my hand.
      It's not too big, not to small and is built so well that one pen
      lasts me over 3 years (with refills, I broke off the pocket clip
      after 3 years and was heartbroken). But I bought the exact same pen
      to replace it.
      Daily I have 10-20 of my customers that need to sign invoices or
      contracts. Everyday I get at least one person comment on how much
      they love the pen when they borrow it. I've had a few try to keep
      it. NOBODY gets to keep my favorite pen!!!
      I highly recommend you buy this quality yet affordable
      pen.

        Comments about Pentel� EnerGel� Alloy Retractable Gel Pen, Silver Barrel, Medium Point, Black, Each:

        I discovered PenTel EnerGel ink last year and bought half-a dozen or so of the standard pen. The ink is smooth and dries nearly instantaneously. The ink doesn't bleed or transfer to other pages, which is great if you take copious meeting notes in a standard notebook.

        I think the only problem that I have with the EnerGel ink is the standard pen that it comes in. The plastic feels alright to the hand, but I've broken too many of the clips to mention. Also, the rubber grip is too fat to fit in notebook spirals.

        I was ready to give up on this pen until I found the EnerGel Alloy pen, which is entirely aluminum and steel. It's a very sleek-looking pen, almost executive, and uses the standard EnerGel ink refills, of which I just bought a dozen! [I did say I love this pen.] It feels good in the hand and seems like it'll provide many years of use. I plan on buying another!

        "There's no such thing as a fool-proof system. Someone will make a better fool tomorrow."

              This pen uses the Pentel 07/LR7 or 05/LR5 (if you like a finer point). You can also use the needle tips if you prefer, 05/LRN5.
