uniball™ Jetstream RT Ballpoint Pens, Blue Ink, 0.7mm Fine Point, 12 Count

I have been a longtime pen aficionado, but I recently had the chance to write with one of these, and when I'm not using a fountain pen or rollerball, I use these. They write super smoothly, don't smudge, and are reasonably affordable. If you aren't looking to get super serious about pens but would like something other than the standard ballpoint, these are a good option.

This was one of my favorite pens when I was young, but on repurchase, I noticed that it no longer writes well, at least on printer paper, if your hands are sweaty. I'm not sure if this is a quality change that has occurred over a decade, if my sweat composition has changed now that I'm older, if because I have only recently written on printer paper and not notebook paper, or if the way/how long it was stored in the shipping warehouse. I used to love this pen for its relative smoothness, lack of skipping, lack of intensity needed to apply ink to paper, and lack of smearing on both paper and on the hand (making it great for left-handed people), and comfortable grip that lends itself to the whole body -- much of this remains true. However, in addition to difficulty applying ink with oily/sweaty hands, it also appears to skip more than I remember, even on a fresh piece of printer paper, making it difficult to write in very small print due to the skipping and sort of initial force needed to begin ink transfer onto paper. On the other hand, the Pilot Acroball pen has been very good to me, allowing me to write in very small print without skipping and smearing, although long sessions cause my fingers to get sore. I just wish I had found blue and red ink versions for it. I can't comment on the long-session comfort aspect of the Jetstream now, however, because it is too annoying to write small print with it. I currently use the Acroball for writing text and the Jetstream(s) for underlining and annotating a few words in color.

solid pen value here - writes well without skipping or smudging, has a nice feel in the hand and comes at a nice price for the quality of this pen

These pens for the price can't be beat. They write very good, dry fast and have a great feel. Jetstream works well. Little bulky ,but that's the only negative

Purchased the black ink ones for my left handed son. I will say for either hand that you use, they are amazing. They are nice and smooth, no smudges worth using left hand. Even the way the ink flows, it doesn’t have any what I call “skips” when a pen can go dead for a second. The grip for your fingers fits perfectly. Was a well worth it price, especially for left handed people.

I did quite a bit of research before buying these and kept seeing them recommended as one of the best pens for healthcare workers. Since my sister-in-law is a nurse, I decided to gift her a pack. She absolutely loves them! According to her, they write smoothly, dry quickly, and are comfortable to use during long shifts when she's constantly taking notes and filling out paperwork. I can't personally speak to daily use since I bought them as a gift, but based on her feedback, these pens definitely lived up to their reputation. A great gift idea for nurses, healthcare workers, or anyone who does a lot of writing.

There’s a reason the uni-ball Jetstream RT 0.7mm has been called a top pen choice for years—it just works. I picked up this 4-pack of black fine point pens for everyday use, and they’ve quickly become my go-to for both work and home. The writing experience is incredibly smooth, almost like a gel pen, but with the quick-drying, smudge-resistant performance of a ballpoint. The ink dries fast enough that even left-handed writers won’t have to worry about smearing. The 0.7mm fine point creates clean, crisp lines that look professional on documents and notes. I also appreciate the uni Super Ink, which is water- and fade-resistant. It gives peace of mind when signing important paperwork or writing anything that needs to last. The pens feel solid in hand, with a comfortable embossed grip and subtle stainless-steel accents that give them a premium feel. The retractable design and sturdy clip make them easy to carry in a pocket or notebook. Overall, these pens deliver consistent, high-quality performance every single time. Whether for school, office work, or everyday writing, the Jetstream RT is hard to beat. Definitely worth keeping stocked.

These pens write extremely well! They've just been delivered so I can't speak for the long term yet but I've been looking for a good, reasonably priced pen for a while since the last pens I bought felt too short for my hand. A while ago I came across a reddit post recommending this pen and it seems that was one of the best decisions I've made recently. The pens are not to heavy or too light and they glide over my paper really well. It did take a second for the ink to flow at some points but not too much to really be a problem as of now. I'm really happy about my purchase and want to purchase other colors in the near future. Maybe I'll try the 1.0mm next.

I love these pens. I love the way they feel. I love the way they write. I love the weight. If everything in life made me as happy as these pens, my life would be perfect.

These are my favourite pens. They are lovely to write with on paper, and also especially good for drawing on fabric, i.e., for drawing around patchwork templates.

Esse veio perfeito, escreve na conhecida qualidade Jetstream

Absolutely Fantastic.... Not one person who has used the pen has said that he/she didn't like it. Very reliable.

Escribe hermoso, una compra muy innecesaria pero que vale la pena. (●'◡'●)
