Sharpie S-Gel Gel Pens Sleek Metal Barrel Gunmetal Medium Point (0.7mm) Black Ink 4 Count

They are brand new today, but I'll give them 5 stars for now. - I've been using Precise V5 since I was a baby...no wait...maybe 10 years or 7. Love them, but failing eyesight needs wider ink so I'm trying 0.7s for the first time in my life. It's going to take time to adjust, like getting a higher limit credit card. I just bought the Precise V7 fine for the first time and the never before used Sharpie S-Gel 0.7. They're pretty close.Sharpie Pros:I think the Sharpie S-Gel V7 is very slightly wider ink; it's a matter of choice.I suspect the Sharpie is more durable, esp when flying / elevation/ high pressure.Sharpie negatives:Even with gel tip protection removed at very first start the ink flow has a lag when I first try it, buts gets going quickly. It's an age-old ballpoint personality trait.Another negative for me is it feels like a ballpoint pen; that metal on metal on paper feel, like hammering a nail into a piece of wood but at the finer level. As a writer it's a big big deal to me. I can have no distractions, even the tremendously grating feel of a tiny metal ball smudging out ideas. I won't regret using it though.I give a decided preference to the Pilot V7. It starts flowing immediately and feels smooth and free as it goes along with my mind. However I've had several Pilot 0.5s start leaking from high altitude flying.

Always loved the sharpie s. This is my new EDC. Writes great…. I am left handed and little to no smudges

I love the s gel pins. I use them daily at work

Love these pens. The metal makes them hefty and they write beautifully

These are my absolute favorite pens. Smooth writing, fast drying and the perfect weight.

Love these pens! Use them all the time. They last forever. I recommend buying the refills so you don't have to throw the whole pen away. These are worth every penny!

comfortable in my hand. Writes smooth. Will buy again

Just what I expected.
