## Description

Profile Ballpoint Retractable Pen, Black Ink, Bold, Dozen

Review: When I first used this pen in the US - I audibly said, "Wow - this is so smooth!". It's the same reaction I get whenever I encourage other people to try the pen. It has ruined other pens now: They feel like scratching a jagged blade across paper.
