Idk, something about these pens just seems intimidating to me. Wish they'd make a kind for women only.** A: If you find yourself intimidated by a smooth writing pen, you could try the BIC Round Stic Grip Xtra-Comfort Pen. And whoever asked, yes this was a joking thread. It makes it more interesting. **Q: Can you draw a picture of a dog?** A: Most definitely! You can draw pictures of almost any animal. The only one that is prohibited is giraffe drawings. The pens cannot handle that kind of pressure. From my experience I have also found it very easy to draw fruits. **Q: Are there 12 of them?** A: I’m sure it says “10” not 12. **Q: Is there a cristal 1.6mm xtra bold red ink package like the black and blue 1.6mm? Don't want other colors.** A: I check to see if you Bic had that point size in just the Red, no it appears they do not, Blue , black and a multi color pack is what they currently produce. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Pens *by C***. on 6 February 2026* Great pens.
