Teachers reach for bold black pens for grading papers, writing comments in the margin, and making annotations that stand out against student work. A retractable design means one click to start writing, with a comfortable round grip that gives students control through extended writing sessions. The built-in clip keeps the pen attached to notebooks and folders so it stays where students put it throughout the school day. Available in black and blue. A reliable choice for any school supply list, any teacher's classroom supply drawer, and any household stocking up for the school year. Review: Just like the Velocity - If you like how the Bic velocity writes, these are the perfect copy and cheaper. So happy. It's one of those pens where you just write a little extra because it's so smooth and bold and easy. Also, comfortable. I have fat hands and like a thicker pen, sometimes adding my own rubber grip. These don't need it. Review: Big ass balls - Big ass balls on these pens. Smooth rolling! I like! ## Features - BUY A BIC AND WE’LL GIVE A BIC: This back to school season, when you purchase BIC pens, we will donate one to teachers and classrooms in need. - BACK TO SCHOOL ESSENTIAL: One 12-count pack of BIC Glide Bold Black Retractable Ballpoint Pens, sized for a student's pencil case or backpack, a teacher's desk drawer for grading and marking, or a classroom supply cabinet stocked for the full school year - BUILT FOR STUDENTS AND TEACHERS: Bold 1.6 mm black ink creates broad, vivid lines that are easy to read on lined paper and test forms; teachers reach for bold black pens for grading papers and writing clear comments; students use them for formal assignments and everyday note-taking - ULTRA-SMOOTH INK FOR LONG WRITING SESSIONS: Proprietary Easy Glide System ink technology delivers smooth, consistent ink flow so students and teachers can write through long class sessions, homework, and grading without hand fatigue - ONE-CLICK RETRACTABLE DESIGN: Extend and retract the tip with a single click; the comfortable grip gives students control through extended writing, and the clip keeps the pen attached to notebooks throughout the school day - RELIABLE BLACK INK FOR SCHOOL AND CLASSROOM USE: Bold black ballpoint pens are the standard for formal schoolwork, standardized test forms, and teacher annotations from the first day of school through finals ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B004F9QBDC | | Additional Features | Pocket Clip, Retractable | | Age Range (Description) | Adult | | Age Range Description | Adult | | Best Sellers Rank | #2,214 in Office Products ( See Top 100 in Office Products ) #51 in Ballpoint Pens | | Body Shape | Round | | Brand | BIC | | Brand Name | BIC | | Closure Type | Retractable | | Color | Black | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 9,751 Reviews | | Drill Point | Bold | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00070330185104 | | Grip Type | full | | Hand Orientation | Ambidextrous | | Hardness | HB | | Included Components | … | | Ink Base | Water | | Ink Color | Black | | Item Diameter | 1.6 Millimeters | | Item Dimensions | 5.91 x 2.76 x 1.57 inches | | Item Type Name | Bold | | Item Weight | 0.28 Pounds | | Line Size | 1.0-1.9 millimeters | | Manufacturer | BIC Corporation | | Material | Metal, Plastic | | Material Type | Metal, Plastic | | Model Name | Glide Bold | | Model Number | VLGB11-Blk | | Pattern | Pen | | Style | w/ Bold Point (1.6mm) | | UPC | 070330185104 | | Unit Count | 12.0 Count | | Warranty Description | Contact Manufacturer | | Writing Instrument Form | Ballpoint Pen | | Writing Technique | ballpoint | ## Product Details - **Age Range (Description):** Adult - **Brand:** BIC - **Color:** Black - **Ink Color:** Black - **Writing Instrument Form:** Ballpoint Pen ## Images ![Glide Bold Black Ballpoint Pens, Bold Point (1.6 mm), School Supplies for Students and Teachers, with Full Grip, 12-Count Pack in Black - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61zF43mAzkL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Number Of Items** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: When you say 1.6mm bold, do you mean the width of the writing is that wide?** A: 1.6mm equals .063 of an inch. That number is the width of the pen that you would be holding in your hand. That would be pretty cool if they made a pen that writes that wide, it would use alot of ink. If you have any other questions feel free to reach out. **Q: What's the difference between this (Atlantis Velocity) and the Velocity pen?** A: The Atlantis Velocity Bold and the Velocity Bold are the same pen. The Velocity Bold is now known as Atlantis Velocity Bold. **Q: Is this a gel pen?** A: It is not a gel pen. It is a ball point pen with an extra large ball that produces think lines similar to a gel pen. **Q: Are there refills for this pen?** A: I don't know but the price point is low and they write wonderfully. Clear and bold. I hope this helps.. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Just like the Velocity *by P***J on April 12, 2026* If you like how the Bic velocity writes, these are the perfect copy and cheaper.
