uniball 307 Gel Pen, Retractable, Micro 0.5 Mm, Blue Ink, Black Barrel, Dozen

Very smooth writing - never skips. Much smoother than any other gel I've tried, though takes a tad longer to dry than some others.I actually buy these just for the refills for use in other pens - turns out to be cheaper than I can find the refills standalone, sadly enough.

I'm a leftie, so have a hard time finding a good pen that dries quickly—so my hand doesn't streak the ink as I write—is relatively cheap, and durable for day-to-day work rather than a fancy heirloom piece. I bought these on a friend's recommendation, and it certainly fits the bill.When used with some quality paper (I personally like Rhodia) this pen works great, and doesn't noticeably streak unless I'm writing absurdly fast and/or my hands are excessively clammy. There is probably a $$$+ boutique pen out there that is technically superior, but since I need a decently large pen supply to cover my own absent-mindedness (and coworker 'permanent borrowing'), this a great value buy.Side note: good paper + good ink are an essential combo to minimize ink streaking/blotting etc., so if you you buy these (or read reviews of this pen) and still see this issue, try switching to some better quality paper; Walmart house-generic spirals notebooks are not top-of-the-line!

I originally got one of these when I was living in Japan and it became my absolute favorite pen. Comfortable to hold no matter how long I was using it (all day taking notes in classes), never skipping which is very important for writing in general but I'd say especially so in Japanese (I'm looking at you, kanji!), and the pen seemed to glide across the paper rather than some that feel like they're scratching and dragging against it. I used it for practically everything and never had any problems with it.When I moved back to the U.S. I used up the last one I had and couldn't find any in stores locally so I had to search around online. So glad I found these again, they work just as well as the ones I originally had.The only complaint I have is that when they arrived the box inside the shipping envelope was burst open and the pens were everywhere. Thankfully none of them were damaged but it could easily have been a disaster if they had broken and got ink everywhere. That doesn't have anything to do with the product itself though so I'm not taking any star off.

Always smooth to write with and the ball doesn't seem to be damaged as easily as other pens I have used.

Smooth, fast drying

Smooth and consistent. Feels good in the hand. Dark black.

This is my favorite pens that I have ever used, as a stationary afficionado, I love how easily they are able to write with, and makes very crisp lines and does not bleed through paper very easily, very satisfying to write with. Very inky so mildly prone to smudging but not more than other pens out there.

These are the best pens, ever. I've successfully converted many others into the awesomenesss of the pen. It's beautiful. Writes very smooth, and the grip is solid. The fact that the pen comes with a rubber stopper on the tip before using is good, too. Only complaint would be that in the first few days of writing, the ink will sometimes come out a little thick, but not to the point of bleeding. Thereafter, it's all smooth, all the way until the last drop of ink is out. I was shocked at how little ink was left when it stopped working - I had been too familiar with pens that stopped even with half a cartridge.Would really appreciated if refills were more readily available, but for now, I'll just keep on buying the 12-packs.

Pen itself write nicely. Unfortunately I got a faulty one and the ink exploded everywhere. It’s still a nice product. The 307 uses more ink per character than that or the 207 but the colour is bolder.

These Uni-ball pens work really well. They have a fine, light gel that dries quickly and does not smear. They are comfortable to use and write smoothly. Great for taking notes, signing papers, and much more.

Once you get started with a gel pen, you will never want to go back to a ball pen. So smooth and flowy - it simply writes much better.

Nice pen to write with and make notes. Ink flow is good. Blue colour is also nice.

These are now my favorite pens ever! Smooth, very inky (but in a good way) and the ink doesn’t bleed. Perfect color, definitely not a weak black color. Love it!
