Zebra PenF-301 Retractable Ballpoint Pen, Stainless Steel Barrel, Fine Point, Blue Ink, Model Number: 27120 (Pack of 1,12 Count Total)

These pens write smoothly, and have lasted well over the past four months of regular use. They feel weighty in the hand without causing strain during long periods of use. I love the professional looking design and how well they match my mechanical pencils from the same product line. Overall, excellent pens!

These pens last a long time and I've never had one skip on me. I've used these pens for years and the clips hold on to lanyards, notepads and even book bags. They write smoothly and feel good in your hand. Recommended for fine point users.

Controversial title perhaps (people take their pens very seriously), but I don't care. I have been using Zebra F301s since 2005. As the ink cartidges are easily replacable, I still HAVE and USE some of my original set. From 2005. They are indistinguishable from my newer ones except that the logo has worn off slightly from use over the last 19 years. I have never encountered anything with such consistent quality in my life (I'm 35). It's especially notable considering the way most companies are "cutting costs" by destroying the quality of their products in the last few years. ZF301s aren't the most affordable pens you can get, but they last forever. Once you have a stockpile of the pen bodies (which you can do over time), you can just keep refilling them. Literally for decades.I have used these pens to hand-write an entire college degree worth of notes. I have used them to write several books. I have used them on three continents in fairly extreme conditions. They have never failed me. The only reason I have ever had to buy more is that I occasionally lose them. Because I have taken them everywhere with me for nearly 20 years.I am a life-long avid journaler, and I write every day. ZF301s have enabled me to do that for decades without injury (despite joint issues) because they write so smoothly and are so comfortable to hold. It's truly effortless. They are very, very good for people who find they think faster than their hand can write. These'll get you pretty damn close. They are also very easy to refill. They come apart and go back together simply, so it only takes a few seconds to replace the ink. I greatly appreciate not having to send an entire pen to a landfill every 8-12 weeks (the ink cartridges last a long time).While this is a great feature, it is also the source of the only remotely negative thing I can say about Zebra F301s. The quality of the ink refills is sadly not as consistent as the quality of the pens themselves. Sometimes they're perfect – like it never needed replaced at all. Sometimes they're terrible. Dry, with abysmal ink flow. It's only happened to me a couple times, but when you buy a 12 PACK, it's frustrating. I realize that's a different product, but it IS part of the experience of using these.

These are the best fine pens anywhere. Love the quality, smoothness, and how easy it is to write well with these pens, I have since brought 3 more sets :)

First of all, I love that they are obvious quality when you look at them. The stainless steel of this pen makes all the difference in the world. They even sell refills for this pen, so you don’t have to throw it away like a lot of plastic pens, I got fine tip, and I just ordered my second batch of them. They are totally worth the money. The flow is fine. They don’t smear. They are comfortable to use. And I end up giving them to my friends, and that’s one reason I order more. Try these out, and see what you think! They are the best I have received from Amazon.Also, they didn’t ask me to test them out or anything like that. I found them in a search for a good pen, and these are the winners.kkp

Purchased these when our computers were down at the hospital and I needed to document on paper. Only thing worse than having to hand write all my notes, was trying to do it with a larger tipped pen. These worked great! Good ink flow and writes smoothly. My only complaint is that the end “clicker” caps will occasionally fall off - luckily I haven’t lost one yet.

As an older nurse I appreciate a good fine point pen. These are my favorite. I bought this four pack to give to my physical therapist - as a male PT I wanted to give him something other than food or flowers - and when I gave these to him he said "this is my favorite pen!". Score!!

A really good writing utensil that is fluid and smooth in action.
