STEEL F-402 Retractable Ballpoint Pens, 0.7mm Fine Point, Blue Ink, Stainless Steel Barrel and Clip, Easy-Glide Ink, Comfort Grip, Refillable Pens for Office, School, 2-Pack (29222)

There is just something about these pens that no others compare for me. I'm pretty particular about my writing utensils and have tried many different pens through out the years. I keep coming back to these as my all time favorites. First, the weight of the pen is perfect. It's a nice weight, not too light, but not too heavy. I think the metal body with the black grip is sleek and comfortable. The pen itself feels higher-end and professional. The ink and the way it writes is also supreme. The ink dries fast and I have not experienced smearing as I am writing. The pen also writes very smoothly, even if I'm writing on a single piece of paper on a hard surface (you know how that can be). I use this pen to write in my bible and it does not bleed through or tear into the next page. Also, even if I have gone a few weeks without using it, the ink is still readily available and I don't find myself scribbling on pages to get it going again. Overall this is a superior pen.

I love the Zebra f-402! The fine-point tip is perfect for writing, and actually helps my penmanship look nicer. It is comfortable, and the ink flows across the page at just the right rate and resistance. The padded grip is a plus. This pen is slightly weightier than the Zebra f-301, so feels slightly better and more balanced in my hand than the f-301. The blue ink is, also, a nice shade of blue. The price point is very reasonable for such a "nice-writing" pen. The diameter of the barrel is perfect for me. Others may prefer larger-barrel pens. I would say this is my favorite go-to pen!

I always read some of the one star reviews. I am always amused that there are some people who just claim to have so many different problems. This is a classy and quality pen. It has a very fine tip, and I have used them for 20 years and have never had one single issue. You can’t go wrong with these pens, hell I even gave my Doctor one and when I asked him on my next visit if he had ever tried it out, he told me that he really liked it and that he kept it at his other office in another town, and he thanked me, and said he was going to get a pack so that he could start using them all the time and replace his other go to favorite. I thought he was just being polite, which he is a very polite man. But on my next visit two months later, I just smiled to myself when I saw him using the pen at the office we were at, and another one neatly tucked into his shirt pocket. What more testimony is needed? 💯

This pen is phenomenal! I like fine point ballpoints best of all pen types, and this is one of the best I've ever used. I especially like that it doesn't glide out of control on the paper like so many gel pens do. It has some resistance on the paper, which fits my writing style incredibly well. I'm amazed that this pen seems so durable, works really well and is as affordable as it is. I'd gladly pay 2 or 3 times as much for it. I haven't really found anything about it that I don't like. What I like: - The non-slip grip works well for my writing style, hand-size, etc. It's very "grippy" and makes it easy to keep the pen stable. - The ballpoint refill in this pen makes it one of the best ballpoints I've ever used, if not the best. - Seems like it will be very durable. It amazes me that it's considered a disposable pen. - It's retractable. I hate pens with a cap that invariably gets lost. Up to now, my favorite pen has been a Waterman that I bought for $100 in the mid-90s. I'm putting it back in its case because the Zebra F-402 is my new favorite pen.

I had recently purchased a black GEL roller ball pen (G-402 = 402 body style, gel ink) and really wanted the same thing in blue (G-402 blue). I looked an an image in an Amazon listing for what was actually the blue F-402 (402 body, ball point ink) and thought it was what I was looking for. :( Oooops, the "F" means ballpoint (I knew that ... I should have read more carefully). The ballpoint F-402 IS a very good pen, no complaints, but for smooth, easy writing I do prefer the gel. I can't find the G-402 on Amazon in blue (it IS available on the Zebra site) and did discover that the F-301 (a favorite of mine, (slimmer, shorter body)) IS available in Gel as the G-301 (301 body, gel ink), and in blue from Amazon. It's all perfectly logical if you pay close attention and understand what the part numbers are trying to tell us ... just don't get in a hurry. :D All great pens!!!

Love the pens. But need a stroger box, and shipping container. Plastic open and one pen missing. Why did you pick this product vs others?: This pen has a smooth flow and like the way it feels. G-402

Best pens ever!

Smooth writing and feels great. If definitely buy it again.

These pens are superb, a pleasure to write with, the grip is soft and ghe ink glows smoothly.

I absolutely love these pens. Perfect weight, and they feel good to hold. I found one in a batch of pens that I was given, and It’s the only pen I use now for everything from quick notes and crossword puzzles to signing business deals.

I conoscitori apprezzano la vera anima di questa penna, lo stesso refill Zebra 0,7mm che equipaggia la mitica Spalding a sfera, un contenuto che per una frazione del costo garantisce la stessa fluidità del tratto. Al confronto le varie Aurora, Parker e Pelikan per quanto di maggiore opulenza estetica vi appariranno noiose e piatte all'uso. Per chi bada al sodo.

Una delle migliori penne in circolazione. Ergonomica e bella da vedere.

great pen! will happily purchase again 🤗
