5.0 out of 5 stars Haven't found a pen I like better, November 26, 2009

I really like this pen. I've been using it for at least 5 years now, and despite trying lots of others, I haven't found one I like better. It writes smoothly, rarely skips, and the ink flows well for very expressive lines. Unlike one of the other reviewers, I prefer the 0.7 tip -- not too fine, not too bold.

My only gripe is that the ink takes a few seconds to dry on shiny surfaces, so I have to be careful not to touch it too soon; this isn't a problem with most paper.

What can you say about pens? Either they write or they don't. Well, I tend to bear down when I write (handwriting experts, what do you have to say about that one) and find the these gel pens help me not apply as much pressure saving my hand if I have to take a lot of notes. I also find the writing smooth and clean. I highly recommend these pens. I just wish I could find refills to save the environment instead of buying a new box when I run out.

4.0 out of 5 stars If Only..., February 8, 2005

Signo gel pens write well...almost like they're melting butter across a hot pan. They are the BEST pens you can get and the ink is vivid, permanent and flows well. The ONLY thing that keeps this particular pen from getting that 5th star is the width of the point. In Japan, you can get .4 and .38mm Signos that are PERFECT for those of us who write small. You can also get partially black colors like burgundy-black and blue-black that really stand out on a page.

If Mitsubishi (Sanford's parent company and the company that actually makes the pens) would just see fit to bring over those colors and those ultra-fine points...I'd buy grosses of these pens every year.

If you don't mind the sort of fattish tip, then these pens are PERFECT. You cannot find a better value for the money. I HIGHLY recommend them!
