These pens are just what I wanted.

These worked great and help up

These are some great pens I will buy again

I used to do a LOT of beading, and have a LOT of beads (that I of course, plan to get back to one of these days). I saw these pens and thought these would make for a great activity with my grandkids and they could use them as little teacher gifts. The pens are nice enough and feel good in your hand, however if you use heavy beads you might end up with a top heavy pen thats not easy to use. The pens write well enough, just regular black ink. They are not gel pens. They have a small ink barrel, so its uncertain how quickly theyll run out of ink. They do include ink refills, which is great, but it seems awkward to include one if youre gifting the pen. The biggest issue I ran into was that the post for the beads is quite thick (which it needs to be in order to hold its shape); the thickness became a problem because most of my beads didnt have a drill hole large enough to fit on the post. All of the grandkids loved this activity- the boys included! My 8 year old granddaughter made 9 of them because she kept increasing her list of people she thought she should gift one to. Our 5 year old grandson needed quite a bit of help, but of course gran was willing to help out!

I use these for my business to create Beaded Pens. They pens last a great deal of time and write very smoothly. They are easy to take apart and put back together as well!
