Best Pen EVER
I am writing this review because I see it has a low rating and I'm worried it will be discontinued as I've found it's difficult to find in stores near me. Please, please don't stop making this pen. I've used it basically my whole life; at every school and job I've ever had. I even wrote my wedding vows with one of these pens.

New is not better!
This was one of my favorite pens for years, then the ink was changed. Now they dry up between uses and have to be scribbled with to get to write, also not as smooth. Please bring back the old style ink!

New pens
We purchased these and a Bic for comparison. The Zebras have a much nicer grip and a smoother write. Will purchase again.

Good pen on a budget.
Use this pen for work and for field notes. For the price they are a quality good pen. Smooth. And if I lose them no biggie.

No-no comparison to the F-301 BP .07mm!
Pros: price and pocket clip.
Cons: Must "restart" ink on every use, can't just pick it up and write with it.
Ink gets blobs on end of while writing and smears as a result.
Bought in a multi-pack: black, blue and yellow/orange. Once the
black and blue start they are ok but the colored one has ink that
does not flow consistently leaving a much 'lighter' line.

Cool colors
The only reason I'm giving a four star, is I like the Z Grip Flight a little better. I kinda write fast and the ball on the Z Grip Flight keeps up with my pace. The have beautiful colors and they actually are incredible! I just need a fast point to keep up with my penmanship..

The old formula was better
I read one of the reviews that the previous ink formula was better, and I wanted to add my vote. The new formula is better for writing, but the old formula was much better for sketching which is how I use them and go through several a week as a designer. It would be great to make that other formula with the clear barrels available as a different model or something. I kn...

Used to be my favourite pen...
With the formula change, this pen is no longer my favourite. I have not found another one that matches the prior formula sadly. I will never use this new formula. (old formula clear barrel, new formula has the barrel a see through colour that matches the ink). Please provide an alternative pen you carry that matched the prior formula please.

lieve I have a rotten batch
We use these for our everyday pens! This recent order has not been as good for example, Evertime you go to write something it doesn't seem to write like it should and its brand new! Please advise and the second problem is it goes from light to dark and thinner lines. Please advise.

Product QA needs work, but great customer service
I originally wrote a negative review of this product because I had received a pack that did not write. I made sure to remove the little plastic tip protectors, so that wasn't the issue, but apparently I got an entire pack of defective pens.
I wrote the company and they sent me a replacement pack right away and they all worked perfectly. I couldn't edit my review, so I ...

Not that bad
I'm a teacher so I write a lot and try a lot of different brands of pens. I like a lot the zgrip but they have to be used fast otherwise they dry from within. My advice: don't buy a lot of them at a time!

Decent Pen, Has Room For Improvement
Goods pens, but they are a bit wobbly at the tip compared to say the Zebra F-301, making the writing experience less confident and precise.
