Paper Mate Profile Retractable Ballpoint Pens, Bold Point (1.4mm), Black, 36 Count - Office Supplies, Comfortable Grip, Everyday Writing

I love these pens, they write so smooth and don’t smudge when writing. I write in journals a lot and also work in an office and these pens are so worth it. I will buy again when I get low. The colors match perfectly and the grip of the pens do not hurt my fingers when I’m writing.

These are my favorite pens, and I keep coming back to them. As a teacher, I write constantly throughout the day, so I’m fairly particular about pens, and the Paper Mate Profile has become my go-to. The 1.4mm bold point is probably my favorite part. The line is thick and easy to read without feeling ridiculous, and the blue ink comes out dark and clear. I prefer a bold pen to a fine point, especially when I’m writing notes, grading, filling out paperwork, or jotting something down quickly. They also write smoothly without requiring much pressure, which makes a difference when you’re using a pen throughout the day. The grip is comfortable, and the retractable design means there’s no cap to lose while I’m moving around the classroom. The 12-pack is useful because I can keep them in different places and still have backups when one inevitably walks away. I’ve tried plenty of other pens, including more expensive ones, and I still prefer these for everyday writing. Nothing fancy or complicated about them. They’re just comfortable, smooth, bold, reliable pens, and they remain my favorite.

These Paper Mate Profile pens are fantastic! The bold 1.4 mm tip writes incredibly smoothly and makes my handwriting look neat and easy to read. The ink flows consistently without skipping, and the colors are bright, vibrant, and fun to use for planning, journaling, note-taking, or color-coding. The pens are comfortable to hold, even during long writing sessions, thanks to the soft grip. I also appreciate the variety of colors included in the pack, which adds a nice touch to organizing my planner and notes. If you're looking for reliable, comfortable pens that write smoothly and come in beautiful colors, I highly recommend this set. I'll definitely be buying them again! ***Before you begin writing there a little wax ball on the tip on the ink side so the ink doesn't leak I assume. You just press to write and it'll pop off the end and voila, you can begin writing!

These Paper Mate pens are durable, reliable, functional, and cheap. I always carry a pen with me at work because many times I need one on the spot. These pens write very well and they are sturdy and shouldn't break. The ink glides onto paper pretty smoothly and the size of the line is easy to read. When buying a large package of these pens, they are relatively inexpensive. I would strongly recommend anyone with any clerical work buy a pack of them and keep one on them. They will last a while and one's boss will never find one of their employees without something with which to write. They are not refillable as far as I can tell, but they are built to last in practically any environment and they will last.

These paper mate pens are everything I expected and more. The colors are vibrant and fun to use with little to no smudging and they seem to dry quickly. The pens write extremely smoothly and at less than $1 per pen the value for the money is ideal. I have not experienced any leakage with any of the pens at this point but having purchased paper mate pens in the past, I have never had an issue with leaking. I would highly recommend these pens if you’re looking for pens with bold colors at an exceptional price.

Great quality and product

I love these pens and use them for all my handwritten notes and work. I am a writer and use them to write rough drafts. My only criticism is that the pen runs out of ink quickly. I usually discard at least one after 30 minutes of writing. I will keep ordering as long as the smoothness and fluidity of the writing remain unchanged.

I absolutely love these pens! The glide is so smooth and the colors are bold but dark enough show up on paper! These are the perfect pens for my teacher logs. They dry almost instantly with no smearing, super easy to use.

Nice inexpensive pens. The color is more of a really deep magenta than a true purple, but its a really pretty shade so I think purple addicts would be happy with it. Writes smoothly with no drag and without blobs. Each pen lasts quite awhile, too. When this box runs out I will probably buy again.

these are great pens, nice and thick and good grip.,...why arent they available in this country

Paper mate roller ball gel pens are my favourite. They glide across the page and feel great in the grip

It's very bold very soft and very smooth , wish it was less expensive but still worth it

These pens are very smooth to write with, leaving a very legible line without the hassle or bleed through of a felt tip pen. Most suppliers have now shifted to stocking only the 0.7 or 1mm nib thicknesses. I don't know if this is a move by Paper Mate or whether there has been a greater shift to fine point, but Amazon was the only place I could source this bold point (1.4mm) where I live. These pens have good longevity and all the other hallmarks of quality you'd expect from a writing implement by Paper Mate.
