I accidentally found a favorite." - me - I've used a lot of pens over the years, but somehow I only recently discovered the BIC Cristal Xtra Bold. To say I'm impressed would be an understatement. These pens write with a rich, dark line that glides across the page with almost no effort. The 1.6mm point produces a bold, confident stroke that makes ordinary handwriting look better and turns even the most mundane note-taking into something enjoyable. The ink flow is smooth, consistent, and reliable from the first word to the last. What surprised me most is how satisfying these pens are to use. In an age of expensive fountain pens, gel pens, and every other writing instrument imaginable, this humble BIC manages to deliver a writing experience that simply feels right. There is something wonderfully honest about it. No gimmicks. No learning curve. Just a dependable pen that writes beautifully every single time. I originally bought one box to try them. Then I bought two more boxes because I realized I never wanted to be without them. That's probably the highest recommendation I can give any pen. If you enjoy journaling, writing letters, making lists, taking notes, or simply appreciate a good writing instrument, do yourself a favor and try these. They have earned a permanent place on my desk, in my notebook bag, and in my home. Sometimes the simplest tools are the ones that bring the most pleasure. For me, the BIC Cristal Xtra Bold is one of those rare discoveries. Review: Sometimes simplicity is key. Smoothes pens you can buy. - These pens are actually amazing. Some of the smoothest pens I have ever written with. The amount of pens you get for only $5 is amazing. The color variety is really nice for organizing notes or just having fun journaling. ## Features - BUY A BIC AND WE’LL GIVE A BIC: This back to school season, when you purchase BIC pens, we will donate one to teachers and classrooms in need. - BACK TO SCHOOL ESSENTIAL: One 24-count pack of BIC Cristal Xtra Bold Ballpoint Pens in assorted colors including purple, dark pink, light pink, red, black, blue, green, turquoise, light blue, and lime green, sized for a student's pencil case or a teacher's desk drawer - BUILT FOR COLOR-CODED NOTE TAKING: Bold 1.6 mm lines stand out clearly on lined paper, making these pens the right tool for students who color-code notes by subject, annotate reading assignments, and mark up study guides so every color is easy to tell apart - BUILT FOR TEACHERS AND STUDENTS ALIKE: Teachers reach for bold colored pens for grading papers, writing comments in the margin, and marking handouts; students use them for organized, color-coded notes from the first day of school through finals - INK LEVEL ALWAYS VISIBLE: The translucent smoked barrel shows how much ink is left so students and teachers are never surprised by an empty pen mid-assignment or mid-stack of grading - EASY-GLIDE SYSTEM FOR SMOOTH WRITING: BIC's exclusive ink technology delivers smooth, fluid writing in black, blue, red, and green for everyday schoolwork and formal assignments ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B075CGYY5P | | Additional Features | Non-Toxic | | Age Range (Description) | Adult | | Age Range Description | Adult | | Best Sellers Rank | #230 in Office Products ( See Top 100 in Office Products ) #9 in Ballpoint Pens | | Body Shape | Round | | Brand | BIC | | Brand Name | BIC | | Closure Type | Click-Off Cap | | Color | Vivid Assorted Ink | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 30,084 Reviews | | Drill Point | Bold | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00070330188389 | | Grip Type | Comfortable | | Hand Orientation | Left | | Included Components | 24 Ball Pens | | Ink Base | Oil | | Ink Color | assorted | | Item Diameter | 1.6 millimeters | | Item Dimensions | 1.25 x 5.25 x 7.63 inches | | Item Weight | 5.28 ounces | | Line Size | 1.0-1.9mm | | Manufacturer | BIC | | Material | Plastic | | Material Type | Plastic | | Model Name | bic cristal | | Model Number | MSBAPP241-A-AST | | Recommended Uses For Product | Writing | | Style | Bold Point (1.6mm) | | Theme | Bold & Colorful Writing | | UPC | 070330188389 | | Unit Count | 24 Count | | Warranty Description | Standard | | Writing Instrument Form | Ballpoint Pen | | Writing Technique | Ballpoint | ## Product Details - **Age Range (Description):** Adult - **Brand:** BIC - **Color:** Vivid Assorted Ink - **Ink Color:** assorted - **Writing Instrument Form:** Ballpoint Pen ## Images ![Cristal Xtra Bold Ballpoint Pens, Bold Point, 1.6 mm, 24-Count Pack - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81H9oTqM+9L.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Color, Size, Style** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: How many of each color** A: 3 of each color **Q: I am left handed. My hand tends to smudge the paper. Is this set a quick dry? If not, could you point me to another set with assorted colors that is?** A: It won't smear. I'm left handed as well and love the boldness. It's not instand dry but close. The 1.6mm bold puts a lot more ink on the paper, so it does not last anywhere near as long as the original Cristal. I write a fair amount and I get about 10 days only out of one pen. If you like it, I'd say stock up. I would consider this on par with the papermate 700rt. **Q: How do you turn off the secret ink bomb feature? it's spooging ink everywhere.** A: This has happened to me a couple of times and I toss the pen. As inconvenient as it can be, I still love the distinction of the ink....it’s so clearly evident. I do, however, suggest informing Bic of the problem of ink oozing. **Q: Is there an orange colored pen?** A: There is no orange. Purple, turquoise, light blue, black, dark blue, pink, lime green and red. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "I came for a pen.
