BicCristal Large Ballpoint Pens, Every-Day Biro Pens with Wide Point (1.6 mm), Ideal for School, Black Ink, Pack of 50

I do a lot of handwriting and was a writer by profession until I retired due to illhealth. So I write every day and go through masses of pens! I was using Zebra but got fed up of these running out so fast and the ink was often faint and scratchy. But these are the perfect pen! Nice dark ink that flows well so it makes my handwriting more legible! They are a joy to use. The only irritation is the little cap on the nib you have to remove. They say "large" but they seem to be just a normal size pen to me! I think very good value for 50!

Will be buying again

Love how these pens write and they last forever without the ink flow running out gradually they glide along the page so smoothly and are perfect for long pages of writing

Good value when compared to other packs of the same sized pens.I'm not being paid for this review, I bought the pens maybe a month or so ago. I bought them after by chance a delivery driver had a thicker pen, not these, but similar, and I used their pen to fill out some paperwork. I needed good pens that I could use every day for work, that I didn't mind too much about if they went missing occasionally (nice pens at work tend to go missing if you leave them lying around).The pens are, relatively speaking, a joy to write with. Because it's a thicker end the pen sort-of glides over the paper and takes less effort to use. I use them all the time at work and anyone (be that friends/ family or at work colleagues/ managers/ delivery drivers) I give a pen to, either steals it and/or comments without me asking them to about how nice it is to write with.If you appreciate nice pens but need one for everyday use, don't be put off by the price, it is good value for money, rather than cheap.The only criticism I can think of is that because you use a bit more ink than you would with other pens, you will need to replace them more often. This isn't the fault of this product or the manufacturer though, just the pen size in principle, and when you've got 50 that shouldn't be a problem.

They are good for people who are heavy handed when it comes to writing due to the wider nib. They write smoothly but do sometimes not evenly distribute ink.I have found that they make handwriting appear neater as well as they are wider than the average pen

These are the best biros. A nice dark ink that flows beautifully as one writes. I have to write all the time at work and these are the best I've found yet.They last a decent amount of time, and a box lasts me a year.

BIC is my go to pen of choice over 45 years, although the only gripe is if you forget and put the pen up-side-down in your pocket, it can leak. I do like the thicker 1.6mm point over the standard as it gives a better show. I am not sure why I bought the x50 box as When I was working it took me two weeks of writing to get through 1 pen therefore a box of 50 would last a couple of years. So in retirement I guess the boxes' contents should outlive me. Mind you at work the only way I could stop the tealeaves from nicking my pens (Engineering Stores and Goods-in) was to put them on the ear/head.

These have the slightly larger tip which is nice for larger style handwriting.Obviously being a Bic they are long lasting, don't really break and don't leak.What more could one want for an everyday pen.Perfect
