### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great pens

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Quality and Great Deal!
*by T***G on October 19, 2025*

I love these pens, they always write smooth and last a long time. It's nice to have a lid on the pen too so that I don't mark up everything around me. Great size to keep in your purse or bag and the lid helps it not leak all over the place. Ink doesn't smear as I write. Great pens at a great deal!
