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...

Always ready to write
I have been favoring Pentel gel pens for some time now and this is my first time with the RTX. I gave these a try because it was a 3+1 free pkg. The RTX are no different. They are ready to write instantly--do not have to try to get them started! Nice crisp letters result.

Ener-gel pens are for lefties!
These are my favorite pens! As a left-handed writer I have searched for years to find a pen with ink that didn’t smear. The ink in these pens dries as fast as I write - no more smeared writing and no more ink on my hand! They are the only pens I buy now.

Tricky packaging (Blue / Black Ink Color)
I purchased these thinking they had blue ink. My fault for not studying the packaging enough and for assuming that an American flag pen would have blue ink.

Fast Friendly Service
I had a great experience purchasing these Energel pens. Associate gave me fast friendly service. I've had one of these pens for a couple of years and loved it. When it broke I knew where to get a new one.
