I've Changed Pens! By lyghtekeeper on - Updated Oct 15, 2011
I am a pen freak! But only a pen that is 1) Micro 0.5mm or less 2) Rollerball or similar and 3) has a rubberized grip is good enough for me. And when I find a favorite pen then you better not touch, move or snatch it. So it was with great surprise that when my favorite extra fine vball was missing from my desk I was forced to use a retractable pen. I expected it to be a cheap ballpoint pen but what I found was a retractable gel pen from my favorite company - Uniball. It writes smoothly, comes in eight colors including purple (my favorite color) and I won't ever lose the cap since it doesn't have one! Pens with missing caps is a HUGE annoyance. Suddenly I have a new favorite pen and I plan on buying several more before they decide to change it. Unfortunately, just one day after purchasing the two pack I left one of the pens on a shopping cart. I only hope that the shopper who found it falls it love with it as much as I did. It also says that it prevents check froud but since I rarely write checks I guess I won't get to put that to the test. This is one great pen - but don't plan on borrowing mine.

I like a much thicker point, but I'm glad you found another option that you like. I know the feel of a pen is so important!
I agree that those caps on pens are a pain. I have to buy ink pens for our restaurant and they never seen to stick around. Either my customers take them or my staff takes them home in their pockets! I love pens like yours but the gel ink doesn't work well on guest checks that use carbon sheets. Oh well...I hope you hold on to your pens better than I do. I watch my favorite pens like a hawk at work.
I agree, I can not use a pen that has a top to it. Either I loose the tops or forget to put them on and get an ink stain in my pocket! This one sounds like a winner :0)
Another pen freak! Hahaha... me too! I like the sound of this pen!
I have this pen and love it, I'm very possessive over my pens........lol
I love pens and purple too. It's rare to find a pen in purple. I will have to check this out, thanks for the info.
You gotta love a good pen! I also like Uniball bens but I prefer medium points.
I'm like you girl-I love pens too & Uniballs are some of my favorites!
