The Better Ball Point Pen Ballpoint Pens, Red Ink, 12-Pack

I purchased these pens after using the one that belongs to my boss. I love the very fine point. I work in an office where I use multiple forms that must be filled out by hand. They give little space to write in them. Having a pen with a very fine point that will not smear is absolutely wonderful. I wanted to get them in black as well but the black ones cost more, enough more that I wasn't willing to pay the difference. I have not had a problem with inkflow or skipping and it dries quickly.

The PILOT The Better Ball Point Pen (12‑Pack, Fine Point, Black Ink) has quickly earned a permanent spot on my desk and in my backpack. Here’s why it stands out: Effortless Writing: The fine point glides smoothly across paper with consistent, bold black lines—no skips, blobs, or smudges, just clean, reliable ink every time. Comfortable Grip: I love the soft-touch grip—it feels natural in hand and prevents fatigue during long writing sessions. Clip & Retract Design: The sturdy clip attaches securely to notebooks, pockets, or planners, and the retractable tip ensures mess-free storage and convenience on the go. Refillable & Long-Lasting: Knowing that each pen is refillable makes me feel good about reducing waste. Plus, they’re built to last without feeling bulky or heavy. Great Value in Quantity: A pack of 12 ensures I always have one handy at home, work, or in my bag—perfect for students, professionals, or anyone in need of dependable pens. The PILOT Better Ball Point balances smooth performance, stylish design, and sustainability—all at an unbeatable value. Perfect for note-taking, journaling, or daily tasks. Highly recommended!

This is absolutely my favorite pen. I first discovered it in an office supply store 20 years ago when I was driving cross-country and needed a pen. The ink is excellent, flows well and they seem to last forever. I bought two boxes about 13 years ago and have just now bought another box. The only thing I dislike is the width of the pen, I wish it was thicker to make holding it easier but that problem is easily remedied by putting the ink stick in a thicker pen body.

I always buy these pens since I was in high school. I forgot about these but during my decluttering process, I was so happy to see my untouched box of these pens. I thought I used it all up but I guess I hid my last box somewhere. I guess it’s not too late for my review since I bought boxes of these multiple times here on amazon. I am a nurse and I always need a pen. This is the perfect ballpoint pen for me. Writes smoothly, simple design, consistent pen mark and does not mess my uniform unlike other pens that I ended up having ink marks on my chest pocket. It dries quickly and does not leak. I highly recommend these!

I have long had a soft spot in my heart for cheap Paper Mate ball point pens. After decades and decades of suffering through dried ink, stuck balls, and other ball point misfortunes, I finally decided to upgrade and to do it right. I mostly use pens for signing letters, writing checks, and writing notes to myself. I want a pen that is comfortable to hold and puts down permanent blue ink smoothly and consistently without any smearing. So I purchased three of the highest-rated retractable blue ball point pens on Amazon and when they arrived, my family conducted a write-off. Here are the results: 3. In third place, the Pentel R.S.V.P. RT Retractable Ball Point Pen, 1.0mm Tip, Transparent Barrel Blue Ink, Box of 12 (BK93-C) . Pentel makes the best mechanical pencils, which I have in all widths and styles, so this was the early favorite. Unfortunately it could not maintain its early lead. Comfortable to hold, but the inking is uneven. I will not buy this pen again even though it was the cheapest. 2. In second place, this Pilot Better Retractable Ballpoint Pen, Medium Point, 0.45 mm, Blue Tinted Barrel, Blue Ink 12- Count (30006) . This is the least comfortable to hold but the inking is smooth and even. As of this writing, it is only a little bit cheaper than the top finisher so I don't think I will be buying this pen again either. 1. In first place by unanimous decision, the uni-ball Power Tank RT Ballpoint Retractable Pen, Blue Ink, Bold, Dozen (42071) . We all agreed it is the most comfortable to hold and it puts down the smoothest and most even ink. And it writes upside down! Everyone in my family strongly preferred this one, which is also the most expensive one. I will buy this pen again and again and again.

I am in the US Army, so I always have to have three pens in the little pen pocket on the ACU left arm. The type of pen you have makes an impression, as silly as it sounds, and having three sharp looking pens tucked away in your arm leaves you feeling prepared and stylin'. Most people try to be all fancy with three Zebra stainless pens. Zebra pens suck, its like you're writing with a large crayon and the ink frequently runs through the paper and leaves the page looking like Zoidberg squirted on it. Pilot pens are perfect. Your biggest issue will be that you can't stop people from taking them! It is very, very difficult to keep three of these pens in my arm pocket because people keep stealing them because they are, quite simply, the BEST pens you will find. These pens are light but have a good tactile feel with having any rubbery crap on the handle that will peel and fall off. The tip is fine so your writing on a page will be sharp and presentable. My penmanship improves dramatically when using a fine tip pen. The ball rolls easy and from very acute angles to the page (I will say that I have had some defect Pilot pens where the manufacturing didn't make a good ball and they didn't roll very well. I throw those out). The pen is comfortable for very long writing sessions of heavy notes. The pen seems to fit well in anyone's hand. Zebra pens are very small and people with big hands will have a tough time with them but the Pilot pens here are long enough that even a large hand will hold them. The ink is clear and will not run through any paper, even very thin paper or napkins. The pen is physically professional appearing but not so obviously flashy it looks ridiculous. These pens are not expensive compared to Zebra. They also are pretty tough, and my pen has been in the field on some nasty FTXs and come through like a champ. The end tip on these pens is just the right size for chewing and doesn't show the chew marks unless you are Ed the Hyena. A good pen is important and I've tried a number of them. This pen is the best. Everyone who uses these pens comments on them and asks where I bought them from. Pens are very important to me.

These pens are the best. Quick shipping too.

Favorite pen from the 90s. I'm so glad to see these still being made. They write very evenly and last a long time. Better than all the gel pens on the market.

Nice pens....always work....dependable and writing looks good

These Pilot pens are my favourite writing tool. Not only cheap but also have a lovely rich blue writing ink. Massive fan.

Comprei dois desse produto: um com ponta fina e outro com média. A entrega foi precisa e eficiente, antes da data prevista. Satisfeito!

Pens are of a good size, shape and write very nice. The line made by the pens is thin and smooth with no jitters or gaps. I also work where there is a lot of grease and they still hold up in all the wear and tear. Has no rubber grip and instead has a textured plastic so they are more durable. Best ball point I have used.
