Uni-Ball SXN-210 Jetstream RT Retractable Rollerball Pen Black Ink - Pack of 12

I feel ridiculous that I'm rating a pen. I'm the type that all my pens came from my work office supply or just free from somewhere. I personally never bought any pens so seeing pens for $30 seemed a bit much but through research found thats fairly typical for good quality pens. For me sometimes youd get a free pen and it would just be so easy to write with so I figured I'd try to find one of those "good" pens. Because I'll tell you when you write alot you realize not all pens are equal some require so much pressure or lack a smooth ink flow. Others smudge easly so you now have a messed up page and hands.The type of pen I was looking for was light weight, wrote smoothly, did not need pressure to write, did not smudge, dried fast, and had a click type retraction instead of a pen cap. This pen met all criteria. I was pleasantly surprised how light it was and how easy it is to write with. I really hope they continue to make this pen

I bought this pen (from a good company) because it was Wirecutter (New York Ties product review) recommended. It does not disappoint!

These are the best pens if you write a lot. They are smooth, non smearing, and very durable. They last a very long time and I find my coworkers all steal them when they can. They clip well to my shirt and are always there when needed. Well done!

I really like this pen. It’s definitely in my to 3, which I use a lot of pens for work. Best value of the 3.

They write smoothly

It glides smoothly, my favorite

In this age of communication by text, email, and all, there are times when one must pick up a pen. After borrowing one of these pens from friend, I knew I needed my own. Something about the way it improves my penmanship as it glides over the paper makes me very happy. Not all pens are created equal. Maybe not life-changing, but this pen actually makes me look forward to writing in my journal.

I'm a particularly "pen picky" person. I've got containers full of pens that I thought I would like, all to be disappointed when I got them home or they arrived in the mail. I'll never use them because I'm so picky about pens. Anyway, there are several characteristics I look for in order to use a pen. Just a couple being comfortable to hold and ease of movement (does it glide well on the paper). This ball point serves both very well. One of the best ball points I've had in quite some time. It's actually up there with some of the better gel pens. The ink is vibrant and it dries immediately. If you like a solid pen that glides really well, you won't go wrong with the latest Jetstream RT. Highly recommended.
