ENERGEL RTX American Flag pens
These were for a gift for a friend and they love the Energel pens. They were on sale, so the price was better than usual.

Don't
Do not buy these pens. I literally can't used half of them because they do not work and they leak. I have kept the pens in the container they came in and the bottom of the container is a mess of leaked ink. Plus the pens are covered in ink that I cannot remove so them my hands are covered in ink. I reached out to Pentel and I only got 4 pens and none of those pens even...

Best pen.
The best pen specially the once made In Japan. But noticed some are made elsewhere. The refills from Japan are better than India or Mexico.

great for knowing which pen is yours at work
The people at work like to pick up my pens on my desk. With the flag pattern I can get an idea who has them if I see it. With the gel ink flow is smooth and a joy to write with.

Love this pen
The Energel RTX pen by Pentel is one of smoothest writing pens I have ever used. It is my favorite pen.

Very smooth
These pens are fantastic! The ink is very smooth and doesn't smudge. Another version of this pen that my husband has used (BLN77-A) has an issue with the barrel continuously breaking. (He's fixed a few of them but they break again.) Hopefully this version does not.

My Favorite Pen
I've always liked the way gel pens write and purchased some of these about 2 years ago. With that stock depleted it was time to purchase again. I also like supporting Cancer and Patriotic efforts with Pink and RWB colors. Love these pens!

Good product
I got my pens delivered I thought they might look a little cheesy covered in an American flag but they look fine. In fact they look pretty sitting on my desk. I’m glad a small amount of money is being donated to charity. One minor niggle I have is that the pens very occasionally *feel* as if it scratches but they *never* skip and always produce a solid line which is...
