Great pen !
These pens are great ! They are comfortable to hold in between your fingers . They are a sturdy plastic and the ink just flies so nicely when you write on paper . The ink is retractable and this can fit into a pocket .

Comfortable Pen
This pen is very comfortable in the hand and writes very good. The ink dries very quickly without leaving any smears or smudges on the paper. I’m very pleased with this product and will continue to use in the future.

Nice, fine point
Very nice pens, the grip is comfortable to hold and the pen doesn't slip around when I am writing. The ink flows smoothly and I like that this is a thin, fine point, my writing looks very neat and clean when using.

Writes well
These pens feel good in my hand and the ink glides across the papers smoothly. I like that they are retractable because I tend to lose the caps to pens that aren’t, and end up getting ink on my hands or clothes.

As expected
This pen is heavier than I'm used to using. I think I prefer a thinner, lighter weight pen. It has a fine tip and writes smoothly with gel ink. I like that it is a retractable pen rather than a capped pen.

I am a big fan of gel pens. I have so many of them that I have lost count. But out of all my gel pens I have papermate brands are the best. I can write and don't have to worry about smearing. I just love them

Smooth
I really liked this pen. It writes very smooth. It does not smudge either. I know that is one of the down falls of a gel pen.
The mechanics were easy to use as well. The color is true to the description.

Smooth pen
This is a great gel pen. I don't like stiff ink and this Paper Mate InkJoy Retractable pen didn't disappoint me. It glides on the paper as you are writing and dries very quickly. I would recommend it.

Great pen
I love a smooth pen and this pin meets all of my expectations. I love the way it writes and I love that as someone who is left-handed when I write with this gel pen it doesn’t smear or smudge on my paper. It is hard to find a pan that does not smudge when you’re left-handed and I am very glad that I have this pain in my back pocket now. It’s just it’s really smooth when you write with it and even though it’s in black the bike is very vibrant and it is very noticeable on the paper. So you don’t have to trace back over so that it’s darker once you start writing the ink is there it’s very dark and it’s very visible and I love that I also love the gel grip because when you write for long periods of time your hands tend to cramp and it’s nice to be able to have a pen that you can write with and while you don’t have to worry about your hands cramping because of The pain that you’re using being uncomfortable. I would highly recommend this pen to anyone that’s looking for a durable smooth riding pen and if you’re left-handed especially a pin that won’t cause your hand to cramp and won’t smudge when you write

Why using these on a porous clay pot, they are still wet after 3 days. Why?

<div class="bvseo-answer" data-answerid="8003285">
Hi Stevie, Thanks for your question. Paper Mate InkJoy Gel Pens, especially the 0.5 mm fine point version, use a gel-based ink that is designed to dry quickly on standard paper surfaces&mdash;but not on porous, non-absorbent materials like unglazed clay. When applied to a surface like a clay pot, the ink doesn&rsquo;t absorb or bond properly, causing it to remain wet or tacky even days later. Gel ink relies on slight absorption or evaporation to dry, and on materials like clay, that process is slowed dramatically or halted altogether. Additionally, clay pots have a highly porous and mineral-based surface, which can interfere with the ink&rsquo;s ability to set. The moisture in the gel ink may react with the natural elements in the clay, preventing it from curing. For decorating clay, oil-based paint pens or markers made specifically for ceramics are much more effective and will dry completely. InkJoy Gel Pens are best reserved for paper, card stock, and similarly absorbent surfaces where they can perform as intended.
