Pens don't always work
There is an attorney in our office who loves these pens - but lately they have been hit and miss to work. We keep ordering hoping we will get past the "bad batch".

Poor Quality
The pens feel very cheap and meet that standard with the way they write. The ink in the black pens seems to flow better than the blue pens.

PaperMate FlexGrip ballpoint pens
I may not need to use any of them for a year or more. When I first got them I drew some scribble lines just to be sure that the pen would write -- which it did.

Disappointed. Pens have been changed. Not as shown.
They have changed the pens. The grip is not quite as nice as before and the top half of the pen is silver colored, not blue. I do not like them nearly as well. Disappointed.

Paper mate flex grip
This is a great way to get these pens but I wonder why they are not offered in retail stores? Why are all pens medium point?

PaperMate FlexGrip Elite Retractable Pen
I have used these fine point pens for 15+ years and love them. They feel good in the hand, write smoothly, and never leave ink blots as some pens do.

No cap to choke children!
Not exactly a decorator item, it strongly resembles a retractable ball-point pen. Useful for fine blue lines on paper.

Great pen
I love this pen. I prefer a fine point and this one writes smoothly and easily every time. My biggest gripe is I can't find refills for this particular pen and I would love to be able to refill it if it was cheaper than buying new pens. I also buy the pink pens for breast cancer in the fall, but they only come in black ink and refills for the fine point blue would come ...

I would buy this pen again
The pens are effortless to use. Many compliments on it. I was disappointed that the pens ran out of ink so quickly. With some pens I could see there was more ink in the cartridge but could not get it to write.
