Excellent product and delivery. My favorite ink pens! Thank you

This is my second order of these pens, and I really like them. I am left handed, and I write like s... These pens have a fairly small signature (not a wide write), and they write on almost anything (unlike your typical ball point pen). They are almost like a fine Sharpie, except the ink flows better, and they just do a better job. I've read other comments, and for, me, smearing has not been a problem, but I can see how you might have a slight problem with the ink smearing on the page, especially if you move over it just as it is written (or very soon afterward). One thing that is a plus for me is the way the pens are made. They have a long cover cap that fits over the writing end. You have to pull this cap off and then turn it the opposite way (so the pen part is down) to write. Some people like the retractable pens; this one isn't. BUT, as long as you put the cap back on, you are never going to accidentally hit the button and have ink leak out all over your pocket in a bad scene. (Am I making sense?)

This is truly a tremendous pen, the absolute best pen you’ll ever find. I do all my work with this pen. I buy this pen in boxes of 12 because I like to scatter them around the house, a few in each room, because I like knowing that a P-700 is never out of reach. I keep a few at my desk at work, a few in the car, and I make sure my girlfriend’s house has at least two at all times. I like to keep one in the breast pocket of each coat. Often a P-700 shows up in the washing machine as I’m pulling wet clothes out, but you know what? It still works! That’s how good this pen is. At work, I use this pen to take notes during meetings. I find myself taking extraneous notes, jotting down random gibberish phrases, long after the meeting is over—because the pen compels me. It wants me to keep writing, long after I have anything to say. This pen turned me into a compulsive list-maker. I have little post-its around my desk, with endless to-do lists, comprised of tasks I know I will never complete. I have a real fear that one day this pen will go out of production. I hope to god that when that day comes, I am not around to see it. I love you, Pilot P-700, and I’ll never let you go.

I'm picky about my pens, and the P-700 has been my go-to for over 15 years. With the 0.7mm tip, the pen writes smoothly and reliably. Keep the cap on when not in use and you'll be good to go. I normally have at least one of these on my person at all times. One word of warning: Be careful not to have these go through your clothes washer. I've made this mistake twice - once, the ink stayed contained in the cap, the other time, it bled into my clothes and was difficult to remove. That's really more my fault than than the pen, though.

Have used these pens for years , like them better than expensive pens. Left one sitting for a couple months , wouldn't work - stuck it in microwave for 10 seconds - almost like new!

Love this vintage pen that has been around for decades! Writes smooth, no bleeding or skipping like other gel type pens. Makes writing cursive enjoyable.

I love the pens in general but was very disappointed that they came in what appeared to be a used zip lock bag! They did not come in a box as advertised
