Penline THE WRITING FISH. Grip ergonomically designed in the UK as an aid for people with arthritis, grip difficulties, writer's cramp and other writing syndromes. Black ink.

Bought for a friend who has MS & often finds their grip is compromised...of all the aids available this is simple and super effective - might not be the cheapest but it is super effective and is easy to replace the pen. If you have (or knows someone who has) issues with their grip this is quite literally a game changer.

I've recently changed jobs and now have to write more than I've done since school days :-) I've had RSI in the past and probably have mild arthritis. My hand after one week of using a BIC pen was intensely sore. Found the Writing Fish on Amazon and it's been an absolute lifesaver - going to buy more! Had to change the pen it came with as soon as I received the delivery as our work only uses blue ink for regulation purposes - definitely leave the fish in hot water for 10 mins rather than the 5 suggested to replace the pens, but it's hot hot hot. Couldn't recommend this product highly enough - only suggestion is to make other colours.

Helpful for grip and for steadying when writing

I mean, this isn't 100% fixable to my pain but I at least feel comfortable writing with this ive been able to go back to college to do maths and I don't feel the insecurities anymore with not being able to write. I tried everything else but this is the only thing that works. My hand pains is very severe. Please can you order more i could do with more coloured pens for uni these are a lifesaver Good job i have loads cos the recent one i bought is covered in ink after i took it out for a refil😭😭

Very happy. Was finding it very difficult to hold a pen and write dumped to arthritis . This definitely makes it easier. Going to order more. Thanks

brought this for a friend who has arthritis, did not help her and found difficult to use, but worth a go at the cost, will gain if worth and not lose much if does not.

Good shape to grip for arthritic hands. Bought for my mum, makes the pen fit better in her hand for writing letters. Exactly as advertised and I would recommend this clever design for gripping for anyone with arthritis in their hands.

I hesitated before buying this as it seemed costly for a small chunk of plastic and a basic pen. That said, a lot of thought has gone into the design of this item. I suffer from an inflammatory, erosive condition which attacks my hands, so that sometimes I can't hold a standard pen, or handwrite for more than a few sentences before I get severe pain in my hands and finger joints. The Writing Fish helps align my fingers into a more supported writing position and it's more comfortable now. One downside - after just a few days, the supplied pen leaked and was unusuable, although a standard pen fits, so it's not a huge cost, just an annoyance.
