Black ink pens for the day
These pens write very smoothly and the ink flows evenly without skipping. The grip is comfortable, making them easy to use for long periods of writing. The ink dries quickly and does not smudge, which is perfect for daily use at home, school, or the office. Overall, they are reliable, well-made, and a great value for the price. I would definitely recommend them.

Greatest cheap pen of all time
These are the best things pens. They write smooth and have a good ink flow. They are a good thickness, and they do come in a variety of nib sizes. You aren’t going to cry because someone stole it, because they are so cost effective.

Great Quality and Great Deal!
I love these pens, they always write smooth and last a long time. It's nice to have a lid on the pen too so that I don't mark up everything around me. Great size to keep in your purse or bag and the lid helps it not leak all over the place. Ink doesn't smear as I write. Great pens at a great deal!

The GOAT of Pens — Smooth,
Listen, I’ve tried the fancy pens. The gel pens. The refillable, metal-body, multi-color, triple-price pens. And yet I always come back to these. The BIC Cristal Xtra Smooth in black is just it — the ride-or-die pen of my desk, bag, and nightstand. They write smooth as hell, no skipping, no weird blobs, no cap drama. Just clean, crisp lines every time. Ink flow is consistent, and the black is a nice rich tone — not that faded gray nonsense. Also: they’re lightweight, comfortable, and somehow feel nostalgic and professional at the same time. This is the pen I reach for without thinking. Reliable, cheap, weirdly satisfying to click into the cap. Honestly? Pen perfection.

Average Pens, nothing special
I needed pens so I purchased these in the black and blue inks. I'm unsure what the deal is with these pens but no matter where I purchase them from the ink isn't strong, meaning it comes out light. I only paid a dollar for them. Of the ones I've already used, they do write smoothly.

Smooth for writing, painless grip, and no leakage, no pooling of ink as you write.

Being a writer, I've bought so many pens over the years, but for some reason these basic Bic pens seem to work better than any other. They write so well and outperform any other pen I've bought even including super expensive ones. The only downside to using them is that the hard plastic makes the fingers hurt with long term use, so they're mostly spare pens for writing notes and addresses. Anything more and you want something with finger cushioning. But as spare pens that you won't be using for extended periods they are perfection.
