Smooth
The only pen we will use in our house as they are smooth as butter when writing with, each and every-time! The tip means as even and durable consistency with each line.

Multi packs are essential
They have a comfortable grip, but a tendency to skip - so you'll want to make sure you have another one handy if you're doing something where you can't just stop in the middle and scribble until it starts working again.

Smooth pens
These pens are my favorite to use! They glide easily, the ink lasts awhile without drying out and they are comfortable to write with and won’t make your finger hurt.

Great light.weight.pen.with dependable ink.
These pens are the best around. Ink last for a very long time, and they don't dry out. No running of ink and fits in your hand comfortably due to its light weight.

These are a staple for me!
These pens are definitely a classic favourite! They write really smoothly and they don’t feel clunky or bulky in my hand, it feels comfortable. 9 times out of 10 the pen won’t go streaky and continues to write smoothly!

Best pens out there
Seriously the best pens ever. They feel so strong but not too heavy while writing. They write perfect, again not too thick not too thin and there isn’t too much ink that comes out so us lefties don’t have to worry about our hands getting ink all over them.

Ink dried out
Sadly, the pens failed to keep an even flow. One worked only about half the time, and would quit producing ink entirely.

Go-To!
The ink quality on Sharpie pens is hard to beat! It allows for a smooth ink performance that dries quickly on the paper to avoid smearing. The smooth barrel of the sharpie pen allows for comfortable handling.

They are smooth, but a little pricy.
As a pen nerd I find that sharpie s-gels are a fine gel pen, they are pretty smooth, though a little bit expensive. Overall they are a decent choice though there are better value options.

Fabulous pen!
I like these pens to help me anything I’m writing. They are smooth and hold up well. The grip is easy to manage and there is always plenty of ink in the pen to use.

Not good for lefty hand writers?
These are my favorite pens! The flow is so so good. They feel great in your hands. The writing is smooth. The dry time could be better but thankfully I’m not a lefty!

Perfect waitress pen
The best pen to use as a waitress. When I was a waitress, this is the only pens I would use. The ink flow and comfort of the pen make writing easy and smooth.

Great pen. Highly recommend
Great pen works really well with no issues. Ink never stops working midway thru writing like most pens do. Comes in a variety of didn’t colors for all necessary applications.
