uniball™ 207 Retractable Gel Pens, Medium Point (0.7mm), Assorted, 3 Pack

Unfortunately, the US is experiencing a wave of check fraud, where people obtain legitimate checks and then "wash" the payee and amount clean and create an unexpected hole in your bank account and also a huge amount of hassle. This writing from this pen seemed to resist any solvent that I tried--and as a extra benefit, it is a great pen as well, writing easily and cleanly so that even my terrible handwriting was legible. As others have noted, it is necessary to scrape off the tiny plastic protector from the point before trying to write--then, smooth sailing!

Normally I type, but when I take notes, I really like a smooth rolling pen that feels good on in my hand. The Uni-Ball is pleasant to use and writes a very clean line on paper. The ink also dries immediately on the paper I typically use. Will buy again.

There are three gel pens on the market, that are the cream of the crop and rise to the top spot. Out of the three, Uniball is the most trusted for smoothness, reliability, and fraudproofing. I have purchased and tried the others, and they write well, but for consistant reliability, customer satisfaction, and availability, Uniball Signo 207 takes top prize, IMHO. The Uniball Signo 207 comes in 4 tip sizes: .38mm, .5mm, .7mm, and 1.0mm. I've used all of these tips, but for the cleanest and most vibrant lines, I like the Medium (.7mm), and the Bold (1.0mm) tips, the best. The .5mm is good for a thin line, and I have some of those in my collection, as well. My daily driver is a Blue 1.0mm, and a Black .7mm. The Signo 207 comes in 13 different ink colors. If you want even more colors, you can get the Uniball Signo 151, with 23 available colors, in either .28mm, .38mm, & .5mm point tips, respectfully. I try new pens all the time, but I always come back to Uniball Signo.

These are really good pens, but I must say I’m not 100% happy with them. I really did expect a better write quality. It does dry quickly, and the ink has longevity.

I like these uni-ball Signo retractable pens and decided to try a couple of variations in order to determine clearly which one I prefer. The four that I decided to try were:- uni-ball Signo 207 Retractable Gel Pens, Micro Point (0.5mm) (2-pack, black ink)- uni-ball Signo 207 Retractable Gel Pens, Medium Point (0.7mm) (2-pack, black ink)- uni-ball 207 BLX Retractable Gel Pens, Medium Point (0.7mm) (5-pack with assorted colors, BLX black ink mixed)- uni-ball 207 BLX Retractable Gel Pens, Medium Point (0.7mm) (4-pack with assorted colors, BLX black ink mixed)All are comfortable to write with, smooth and free of skips and any other blotching. For my personal preference the 0.5mm point, what uni-ball calls micro point and others might call fine point, is pretty sharp and perhaps a bit too fine for my heavy handed writing. The medium point, 0.7mm, is still a very fine line in my opinion, and writes very well. I wanted to also try the BLX ink pens to see if I could tell any difference, and I ended up getting the packages of 4 and 5 pens that are black ink mixed with other colors.The BLX with mixed colors are very nice, and all of the colors are quite dark. uni-ball calls them blue/black, brown/black, green/black, purple/black and red/black (the brown/black is not included in the 4-pack). All are much more subtle variations in color than you would normally expect, as the black/color combination results in a much darker shade with just a hint of something else. To my eyes the red and blue variations are most noticeable, and the purple and brown probably wouldn't be noticed as different from black by many people unless it was pointed out to them. I like the variation and as I use them it may turn out that I prefer one over the other, but for now the variety is nice.For my every day use I will probably stick with the medium 0.7mm point, either the regular 207 black ink or one of the BLX mixes.I should add that uni-ball makes the point that the ink used in these pens is particularly good for protection against fading and fraud, and that is also an important consideration. The documents that I sign at work are frequently considered 'record' documents and in fact we have requirements on using ink that is not going to deteriorate over time, so these pens are perfect for satisfying that requirement.At just over a buck per pen, these are not the cheapest disposable pens but they are in my opinion the most comfortable to use.The price here on Amazon is also very competitive, with the added advantage of many variations available. There are so many different choices available that I find it difficult to locate the specific type that I prefer when I'm shopping locally, and once I was able to locate the right model here on Amazon, this is what I'll be sticking with.

great!!

I had a check stolen and didn’t realize until my bank caught it and have not had any problems since ordering this pen. It prevents white washing of checks

Works good you can wash the ink of checks had a check stolen and washed caused a lot of trouble this will stop that

I always have a pen in my hand. Write a lot for work. Notes, graphics drawing, brainstorms, accouting, etc. Ive been looking for something that i enjoy writing with since i figured this is a tool that i use more than my computer.This feels like higher end pen, write well with ink consistency, but is still within a cheaper price range that you wont get mad when you inevitably lose one (or get one stolen. Im looking at you Kevin. I know it's you).I will be buying a few more.

I've been using it to write checks, take important, long-lasting notes for ages. Great pen!

Great

One of the best commercial pen i ever had

Très satisfait car j'en possédais et je renouvelle mes stylo.
