Dr. Grip Ball Point Just What the Dr. Ordered
By Jan Mayrhofer onWhat makes the Dr. Grip Ball Point Pen different? It is the really smooth silicone grip. No ridges or texture, just nice, smooth silicone.
I know it is not that often that most of us use a pen for any great length of time anymore - rather, we use our computers to compose our thoughts. There are those, however, who still need to use a pen, I being one that uses mine on the job quite a bit. I also use a mechanical pencil (review coming soon).
Two things about lthe Dr. Grip that really work for me are:
1: My fingernails are a little bit long. With a regular sized barrel on a pen, my nails poke my fingers as I grip the pen. Ouch! This problem is eliminated with the thicker, silicone-covered barrel of the Dr. Grip.
2: With prolonged use, my hands get sore and achy with a slim pen. The Dr. Grip allows me to work without pain for a much longer period of time than I would otherwise be able.
Besides the comfort this pen affords, it is durable, well built, and writes nicely. I like the regular ink, butit is also available in gel.
Hope you have a chance to check out a Dr. Grip for your own needs, I know you will like it.

Will check these out. I hate cheap pens that work on and off.
comfort is a big advantage especially if you write a lot. these sound like must haves for students!
