Review: Ink Joy

InkJoy penI love writ­ing. As in, tak­ing a pen out and drag­ging it across a piece of paper. It’s a dying art.

Paper­mate recently released their InkJoy series of pens. I bought a 6-pack (well, 4) and love the writ­ing plea­sure this pen pro­vides. It glides across the page unlike any­thing else I’ve tried.

It’s a ball­point, so the ink is maybe more per­ma­nent than a gel pen’s. And it just glides more smoothly than a gel pen ever could.

Oh — my color of choice is blue — peo­ple are more prone to believe it’s real. (That line of think­ing goes back to the xerox days — when black always meant a copy.)

Finally, no dis­clo­sure needed. I bought these with my own money. Office Depot adver­tized them, and the ad con­vinced me to give them a try. I’m glad I did.

    Wow! I always love a good pen. My standby for a few years has been Pilot G-2 05 pens. But they are not per­fect. I will try these InkJoy pens the next time I’m in the mar­ket for pens.

    I com­pletely agree. After buy­ing a Space Pen and expect­ing to be wowed I was dis­ap­pointed that it was just a plain ball point pen with a nitro­gen car­tridge. I ended up at Tar­get and ran across a dis­play for these pens and just had to try them. After writ­ing one word I was in love. This is now my daily dri­ver pen that goes with me every­where, and like their mar­ket­ing it is VERY hard to not have them stolen. They are effort­less an smooth to write with and the white has a nice almost hip­ster look to it. I now buy them in bulk from Amazon.

      Mike — I hope that more peo­ple dis­cover them. I have half thought of get­ting rid of all my other pens and only using InkJoys.
