Pilot Precise V7 Rolling Ball Pens, Fine Point, 0.7 mm, Black Ink, 4 Pack

I hate the new gel ink used in so many pens these days. It smears and gets on everything. The pilot pens do not have that same gel ink. Yes, it will smear if you touch it right away, but it dries well and does not smear once dry. The pens are fairly thin, comfortable to hold and write with, have a textured, rubber base that makes them non-slip. I use the extra fine point for a more refined and thin line of writing. They are great for letters and recipes. The ink does not skip or blob when writing. These are my favorite pens.

I am very particular about using the right pen to write on my personal planner and my reporter's notebooks. I may have a limited space to write on and this needle point pen helps me write clearly and legibly. A thicker pen would not be suitable in this instance. This is the best writing pen. I always have a backup pen just in case and certainly love the blue and red ink to differentiate my notes.
