Pentel Energel Euro Ballpoint Pen, 0.35mm Needle Tip, Blue Ink (BLN23-C)

This pen is fantastic. I've been a fan of Pentel Energel ballpoints for a while now, but I'd only ever used the 0.5 mm: Pentel EnerGel NV Liquid Gel Pen, 0.5mm, Fine Line Capped, Needle Tip, Black Ink, Box of 12 (BLN25-A).The 0.35 mm is everything that those pens are, and more.As a left-handed college student, I'm on a constant search for pens that flow smoothly enough to allow me to write quickly (tricky as left-handed people tend to "push" pens along paper rather than "pull" them), while still drying fast enough that I won't end up with pen ink smeared all over the side of my hand. This pen brand has managed to do both of those things for me, but I'm now particularly excited about this thickness — I've never had a pen that could write in lines this thin and precise while still letting me write fast, and not skipping over the paper.My 0.5 mm versions of this have lasted over 3 years at a time (it helps that I'm very stingy about lending them out!), and I expect the same stellar results from this pen.

This is the greatest pen ever and I am very picky about pens. A very nice heft and very smooth writing. Lovingly wrapped by the shipper, it took a little while to arrive but believe me, worth it. Look no further, you will want this one for life.

This might be the ultimate gel ink pen for you, though it isn't for me.For pros, this one has plenty. The needle point on the EnerGel Euro 0.35 isn't as robust looking as a conical one like on a Signo DX, but it's definitely more robust than the one on a Hi-Tec-C. It's arguably the smoothest writing gel pen I've tried recently. The body is reasonably solid feeling (not quite as solid as a Signo DX, but far from flimsy).The cons don't really involve performance. While this is rated as having an 0.35mm point, the line it writes is a bit wider than the Signo DX 0.38. That's thicker than I prefer, sadly, and it's the finest point available in its line. This ends up being one of the harder to get and more expensive pens in its class, since you can only get them singly from Amazon, at around $5 each. They're cheaper at specialty vendors like Jet Pens, but then you don't get Prime shipping, and they're still more expensive than a dozen pack of competitors like the Hi-Tec-C/G-Tec-C or Signo DX.If you like the line width of this pen, it's arguably a bit better writing than the also excellent Signo DX, but if not, you'll have to look elsewhere for your perfect pen.

This my new favorite ballpoint pen now. Highly pigmented, the ink flows beautifully and doesn't bleed through the paper I'm using. Nice and thick for easy holding. What else can I say? This is a fantastic pen.

My wife and I are addicted to pens, fountain pens and lately gel pens. This particular pen is one of my favorite gel pens, smooth for a .35mm, in fact smoother than most of the gel pens I have. The pentel .5mm energel and Zebra Dry .4mm are just as smooth. Great for bullet journals.

I've had 3 of these pens and none of them have given me any issues.This pen is one of my favorites.1) It's smooth a smooth gel pen that doesn't clump up like a Pilot G2.2) It doesn't feather on cheap 24lb inkjet copy paper. e.g. HP inkjet3) It has a rubber grip that is effective but not bulky.I have dropped it multiple times uncapped and it writes great.Sidenote: The retractable version of this pen is pretty bad. It's scratchy and unwieldy. I dropped it once and it skipped so bad I just threw it away.

This is one of the best pens I have ever used. They're hard to find, but I prefer a very narrow-tipped pen for work. And since I write for a living, finding the perfect pen - along with the perfect paper - makes the whole work 'exercise' so much more rewarding.

Good pen, but I don't like the 0.35mm tip as much as I thought I would. I like their 0.5mm needle tip much, much better.
