BIC Glide Bold Blue Ballpoint Pens, Bold Point (1.6mm), 12-Count Pack, Retractable Ballpoint Pens With Comfortable Full Grip

I love this brand! I got these pens on sale and gave some as gifts. They write smoothly, and I haven’t had any issues. The ink dries quickly, they’re easy to use, and the blue ink color is great. I’ve been using them for a while now with no problems—no leaking or ink getting everywhere. They’re a great value for the money, and I’ll definitely be purchasing more as gifts in the future.

Love this pen. Very smooth and light

I'm surprised by how smooth and great these pens are. Really like them. Very comfortable to hold.

These babies are the epitome of pen perfection, and I feel like a boss every time I put them to paper. With a bold point that demands attention, these pens are not for the faint of heart. They're like the lions of the pen kingdom, roaring with confidence and leaving a trail of sharp, decisive lines in their wake. No more wimpy, feeble marks – these pens know how to make a statement! The smooth glide of ink is like butter on toast, except it's better because it's in pen form. I feel like a wordsmith, effortlessly churning out masterpieces with each stroke. It's like my thoughts are dancing onto the paper, and I can't help but marvel at the sheer brilliance of my own words (even if it's just a grocery list). But here's the best part – these pens know how to leave a lasting impression. Unlike those cheap, flimsy pens that give up after a few sentences, the BIC Glide Velocity Pens keep on going like the Energizer Bunny on a caffeine high. They're reliable, and I can always count on them to be there when I need them most – like a trusty sidekick in my pen adventures. So, if you're tired of mediocre pens that cramp your style and mess up your handwriting (not that mine was ever neat to begin with), the BIC Glide Velocity Bold Ballpoint Pens are here to save the day. Embrace the boldness, let your words flow with flair, and scribble like a boss with these pens by your side. You'll never look back – or use another pen again.

Comfortable, smooth writing pen

(I wrote the same review for the black version of these pens) I write a LOT, and am a list maker: notes, studies, descriptions, thoughts, you name it. Through the years I've had a few favorite pens, but when I stumbled upon these - as well as the same type in black ink - that was it! I fell in love with using these pens, I have one in nearly every room of the house now. The ink is dark, bold (as the name/description states), and extremely comfortable and smooth to write with. I have carpal tunnel, so using a pen that can keep up with me is a tall order. I've ordered these pens numerous times, and will continue to do so. I have also purchased these pens in red and green. However, I had to subtract one star for the following reasons: After writing a few lines, or a page worth of things, the tip of the pen gets 'gloopy.' I've taken to keeping a tissue or napkin close by to wipe off the tip as needed. While storing the red/green pens in a desk stand, I found that the ink actually seeped out of the tips, then hardened and actually clogged the end of the pen where the tip retracts into. Not what you want! The amount of ink has also markedly decreased over the years. When I first started using these pens, the ink seemed to last forever; no more. I go through them much faster than before, which leads me to.... Apparently there are NO REFILLS for these pens, which means I end up throwing out a perfectly good pen with a still perfectly-good casing, which is very disturbing from a recycling POV. But...that's just how things are made, nowadays, right, Bic? Such a waste and terrible for the environment!!! Bic also can't figure out what to call these pens; through the years, they've been known as Velocity, or Atlantis, or (now) Glide/Glisse. I wish Bic could make up their mind about this. While I enjoy using these pens, and will continue to purchase them as long as Bic makes them, they would really do themselves a favor by listening to their customers and fixing these product issues.

There are not too many things I'm picky about but I do love a good writing pen, or I should say printing pen! Must be either bold point or medium point. Not crazy about sharpies, so I tried these. I have been using the pens made out of pop bottles , medium point for years but thought I would take a walk on the wild side and try these! Well let me tell ya , good folks, these are GREAT! Love the smoothness of the ink, the medium point is just right I say try them, you will be surprised 🙀!

It blobs and smears

Bic is renowned name.This 1.6 mm pen is used as a Sign Pen for my official documents. Ink and the thickness of the point and smoothness makes it unique. Value for Money and Quality

Smooth, smooth, smooth. My physiotherapist told me to stop writing because of my shoulder injury. I searched high and low for the right pen and spent a lot of money. These pens are excellent for left-handed people as it’s smooth and flows very easily. I was very surprised and the price point is excellent for something that works as well as this. Strongly recommend for left-handed people

The BIC pen are really good for writing. It is the 1,6mm version I have and I like the way it moves on the paper.

This is the best ballpoint pen I have ever bought. It glides so smoothly and is very comfortable to hold. Perfect for my needs
