PILOT VBall Liquid Ink Rolling Ball Stick Pens, Extra Fine Point, Black Ink, 12-Pack (35200)

I USED to love these pens when their plastic case was solid black and didnt scream V-BALL in bright white all over it. The pen itself writes great. But the look of them now....SO UGLY. Its breaking my heart that I cant use these now because Pilot insisted on turning the pen into some kind of giant advertisement. Thank goodness I can still get the plain black ones imported from Japan.

Just love these pens

update 22 Aug 2018. I a recent online article about best pens, this one wasnt mentioned. Obviously those folks made a mistake. These are the best pens. (end of update) I bought one of these at a local shop, did some extended writing with it, and compared to my other favorite pens. Its quite a good pen, and the ink dries rapidly which is a plus for us LEFT-HANDED WRITERS. If you have a good writing speed, like I do, you have probably experienced some pens that need a pause because of starvation at the tip. These pens have a generous supply, so the next step if you do a lot of writing is to also have a good notebook like a RHODIA whose pages are still designed for real ink. With these pens you can have a beautiful stroke, almost like a good fountain pen, and unlike many others, they dont leak in your pocket in hot weather. Only drawback is that the ink supply is a bit limited. Buy them by the dozen. The blue ones have a nice dark color.

My all time favorite pens. I had one break after putting it in the washer, but somehow the ink all stayed within the pen!

For the longest time I had to order these pens through Office Depot. They always came in a half-mangled box by the time they got to me. Now that I have found them at Amazon Im thrilled. These are greats pens. I love rollerball pens and purple is my favorite color. They tip of the pen is fine.

The Vball pen is great, smooth ink flow. No complaints at all.

These are the best book signing pens ever!

Delivery got here super fast. These pens will help with writing purple prose

Absolutely love this pen!!

I love these pens. They write well, they write smoothly, and they work well until the ink is _gone_. It’s not often I manage to use a pen until it is entirely empty, but I’ve done it with these pens. The ballpoint writes just as well at the end as it did at the start. These are great pens. You can carry them in your jeans pocket, and they won’t leak. I’ve used these pens for 20+ years, and these will spoil you compared to cheap ballpoints.
