Zebra F-301 Retractable Ballpoint Pen with Stainless Steel Barrel 0.7mm Fine Point - Pack of 12; 6 Black & 6 Blue

The best disposable ballpoint pen

I’ve used these for years. Like the narrower barrel for my smaller hands and a nice balanced weight. Never an ink flow problem, always smooth writing and last for a good time. Decided to try some blue and love that color.

These are nice pens. The ink flows well without any smudges. Both colors are good.

I first bought these pens several years ago, really drawn in by the .05 aspect of it, especially since at the time I was still in school and took a lot of notes. But I've been a huge fan ever since. I was originally worried that the metal would be a pretty unforgiving/uncomfortable thing to hold considering I tend to grip my writing utensils a tad too tightly when I'm concentrating, but it wasn't an issue. The pen is comfortable enough on it's own, but if you really need more comfort it is still small enough to slide a grip on to. The pen's flow is smooth; no weird gaps or fades mid-letter which I've seen in my cheaper pens. Also the writing is so fine that I can fit a lot more onto a page, even with my large, looping handwriting. They work well, even years later, and are durable... which is good because I'm a klutz. I've dropped/stepped on these pens plenty of times and haven't done any damage. I finally just bought this larger box of pens for myself because I was tired of setting my favorite ones down and not being able to find them. Now it'll take me a while to run out. My coworkers have even started borrowing them because they liked them so much, so I've started gifting them. One coworker in particular uses nothing but these pens, a blue and a black, for everything now. TL;DR : Get these pens. Ultra-thin writing and durability to last. My favorites.

Love the way it just glides on paper. A perfect fit for my hand and in addition the design is great and the stainless steal barrel will last almost for ever.

Unlike the gel kind of pens, does not smudge and writes immediately. Giving 4 stars, because it is slightly flimsier than my experience of this product when bought several years ago.

Works better than most! I plan to buy more as I need them.

I have used these pens for a long time for work as well as my personal needs - they fit my needs !
