Cristal Xtra Bold Ballpoint Pen, Bold Point (1.6mm), Blue, 12-Count

These pens come in cool colors, and they write very smooth and lay a nice thick line down. The are fun to use, and are priced low. They also dry quickly to avoid smudges.

These thicker, 1.6mm ballpoint pens are extremely difficult to find. Shockingly, I originally found a multi-color 5 pack of these BIC Pens at a Dollar General Store near Pittsburgh. When I got back, I immediately went on Amazon to try and find them. Happily, I found them, but only in blue and none of the other colors. But, I will keep checking. Though I must admit that the other colored pens are nice, however did not write quite as smooth and thick as the blue and also seemed to smudge a little. After receiving them, my husband and daughter now know why I Love them, and never wanted to share until finding more to purchase.😊

I believe by now everyone knows the good old standard Bic! I buy these just to lay around the house because my husband loses every ink pen he touches. Great value for the money that way if they get lost you're not out much. Smooth writing and great flow of ink.

I by chance received a Bic Crystal pen at work and after that no regular pen felt right. After using these, a regular pen feels like it binds and requires force to write. Not with these. These pens are very smooth after writing with them for a short time. My first pen ran out and I thought it did way too fast, so I bought 12 blue and the 48 pack of multi colored ones. After months... I'm still on my first pen. Guess they don't run out as fast as I first thought, although I don't write too much at work either. They do tend to bleed the first time you use them each day, leaving a tiny spot where the pen first touches paper, however, I have found that by storing them vertically this is mostly eliminated.

It's a cheap Bic pen, I know. But I LOVE IT. The ink is dark and I get the medium point. It flows freely, doesn't skip and it's cheap! I take a lot of notes at work because it's easier to access than on my computer, and because "writing" helps me remember things more. Just bought another box full! When those are gone I'll buy another!

I love these pens & am reminded of my childhood. They leave a fat ink trail which is great, but they leave behind a lot of ink. You can end up with ink smears on your hands if you touch the ink before it's dry. Product arrived in a timely manner. Packaged well. No problems. product is exactly as expected

These pens never disappoint, they last until there is not a drop an ink left. They write very smooth.

I bought these last year and made another purchase. They are really great pens, writing very smoothly with a nice wide line but not too thick. The blue really is bold, and when writing it feels very smooth, almost like the Bic Ultimates. Maybe better at times. The Ultimates aren't available in blue, so this is a nice change. The black bold is very similar. It comes in the standard clear hexagonal pen body like the Bic Cristals, and you can watch the ink level go down. This one depletes faster than a regular Cristal pen, which makes sense since more ink is being used as you write.
