5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Pen, February 3, 2005

This review is from: uni-ball Impact RT Retractable Bold Point Gel Pens, 12 Black Ink Pens (65870) (Office Product)

The pen has an excellent liquid flow (although it does take a few moments to dry on paper). Impact RT is bigger than the average Uniball pen, and the rubber grip adds a degree of comfort. Overall, a better pen than the Pilot Precise.

5.0 out of 5 stars Ball point pens, the best for the money, November 8, 2007

If you enjoy the feel of a good writing instrument, you will love writing with this pen. The 1.0mm is a bold line, not too thick but just right. It uses ink quickly , which in this case and for the price is great thing. It is a great thing because the flow of the ink is smooth, effortless, and makes a statement. However your handwriting , you will find this pen increases the quality of it. If you love a good pen as I , you will love this pen. BTW, I first discovered the pen at a high powered attorney's office. No, don't stop reading. He could afford the best for his custmers and he was very discriminating in all things and chose this for his high profile clientele. At $2.13 a pen you will love it! Have fun writing again .

5.0 out of 5 stars Large hands? You'll want the Gel Impact RT 1.0mm pen!, November 11, 2008

This review is from: uni-ball Impact RT Retractable Bold Point Gel Pens, 12 Black Ink Pens (65870) (Office Product)

I ordered a box of these pens back in 1999. I had just returned to the U.S. after several years working in Japan, where I became a loyal customer of Sanford.

I recommend this pen for people with large hands or who find the thin barreled pens uncomfortable to use. The Gel Impact RT is 50% wider than a standard pencil and features a rubber grip that helps with control and comfort. The 1.0mm pen stroke is solid and flows easily (hint: at first use or when loading a refill, make a line of 20 check marks; this helps open up the ink flow behind the ball point).

A number of co-workers and friends have borrowed my pens over the years. Sometimes I get them back, often I don't. The pens are so popular and in demand that our office now stocks them and refills.

I carry two of these pens (blue and red) in my FranklinCovey compact Sedona Leather planner (check my Amazon review for more information) and a spare refill in the planner's zipper pouch.
