Pentel K105-GC Ballpoint Pen, Hybrid 0.5, Blue, Set of 10

Great slender long body. Now, if you do not like slim pens, then this pen is absolutely not for you - buying something that you won’t like to even hold…. You would never write with it!With that being said, It has a great sturdy feel with ribbing where the grip area is, and although it is made of plastic, it feels very good to hold, and I have not experienced slippage.The ink itself is very juicy - very bold - With a greatly controlled line. However, sometimes infrequently it may leave a small blob on the page depending on how slow or how fast you write. I find that this is true for every single one of the pants, although minimal it is note worthy.If you want a slim pen with perfect fine lines everytime try the Pentel Hybrid Technica or the Hi-Tech C. If you do not mind a short slim pen Then the Pentel Slicci will do it for you. For those of you who like the body of a Pilot G2 then the Pilot Juice is a beautiful replacement.This pen is for someone who wants slim sturdy, tall pen with confident lines smooth while writing that never skips and feels great in hand. Understated but looks pretty good too.

I have used this pen since I was a kid and I feel missing if my pen gets lost or if I cannot find it quickly around my desk. It might sound crazy to you but it’s true. Unlike the Bic pen, this Pentel hybrid pen provides me an extreme smooth finish when writing. The ink also lasts pretty long and that is one of the reasons why I like about it. There are so many types of pen available out there but I feel this pen is very timeless to me. Just imagine… if you say a fountain pen is compared to be a first class seat on a plane, this pentel hybrid pen is compared to be a premium economy seat, but not a coach. It doesn’t have to be a first- or business-class seat but it gives me a little comfort.

Perfect for fine line writing. Resistant to alcohol and peroxide smear.Only issue I have encountered is that if the pen is dropped the ink flow might be affected.

So it's a nice smooth pen after the first few uses, the ink though is more on the gel side it's still bold and pigmented. I expected a ballpoint pen but probably won't order another box again.

I'm a pen person to the core. These are terrific pens. Pentel used to sell them here in the US in all different colors and they were the best gel pens out there. I missed them so much I went looking for them and finally found them here on Amazon after buying a box for twice the price on eBay. The gel is very nicely fluid, and the nib is very fine. It's an excellent professional quality pen. I have to take notes fast and furiously during meetings and it works great. I just love this pen:-)

They work and they’re gel. They’re just not as comfortable to write with.

I got one of these pens in a stationery subscription box and loved it so much I had to find and buy more. It writes smoothly and consistently, the ink doesn't smear while writing, all around good stuff.

This used to be my favorite pens. I actually have a few left from more than 30 years ago and they still wrote like butter! When I realized they are still making this and they sold them on Amazon, I immediately bought two dozens. But sadly they are nothing alike. The ink flow is spotty at times. I would definitely go with Pilot Gel or any other equivalent.
