BIC Cristal Original Smudge Free Ballpoint Pens, Ideal
BIC Cristal Original Smudge Free Ballpoint Pens, Ideal for School, Black, Medium Point (1.0mm), Pack of 5
Simple? Looks can be deceiving
At first glance, the BIC Cristal Original ballpoint pen seems to have an extremely simple design. Yet it is actually quite technically complex. Since 1950, BIC has made no compromises and left nothing to chance to continually improve the performance of this iconic ballpoint pen and offer consumers the same writing quality throughout the life of the pen. BIC still makes the BIC Cristal Original pen in its own plants on machinery designed by BIC engineers. The company also manufactures its own inks to assure a smooth and high-quality writing experience.
BIC Cristal: the pen that lasts
The BIC Cristal pen is streamlined to the max and only weighs in at 5.8 g! Every detail is engineered to do one thing: write – and keep writing for as long as possible. Made to last, this ball pen writes up to twice as long as other common ballpoints. An average of 3 km.

If you are looking for a box of pens that are reasonably priced, and you don’t really care if one or two of them go missing, then this is the perfect box for you. We got them for our kids as they were completing their national fives and we are constantly misplacing our expensive pens. Had them in blue, but always prefer them in black. Great for a Desk. Just clear out all the old rubbish pins that you have laying around and get these ones
Top pens do exactly what they say on the box. These work out much cheaper to buy than the bargain ones that most of the time don’t work out of the packet.
Being a left-hander I’ve probably tried and experimented with a lot more different types of pens than the average person. While I do have preferred pens to the classic BIC, there actually aren’t many i’ve used I’d put above it!
I’m not going to do an in-depth review of a BIC as who hasn’t picked up one of these?! My real recommendation with this pack is it’s a great, cheap way to get a reliable red and green ink pen, and hey, if you need a black or blue at the same time it’s a bargain.
I’ll always have a full pack of these nearby for when I need to use a different to standard colour.
As a student/ worker, this was a perfect purchase. I’m constantly writing, at school, work and at home, which means I go through pens quite quick. Very convenient purchase, which meant I wasn’t having to keep going out and buying small packs of them. Great if I need to lend pens out to people as well!
Having recently purchased some Paper Mate disposable ballpoint pens which lasted no more than a couple of days each I thought I would try some BIC ballpoint pens.
I have been very pleased with these pens. They write smoothly with no breaks in the ink, the pens are comfortable to hold and write with over several hours and I have been using one pen a lot for over 3 weeks now and it is still happily writing.
Very good quality ballpoint pens at a great price on Amazon.co.uk.
Really good pens. Great to write with .Not good to carry but I mostly write at my desk and love them.
Great value especially if you use them lots as I do.
Got this so when eldest child is leaving for school always have one to hand to give if needed.
There are cheaper options but I read a number of reviews and many have complained of low ink or nor working. At 10 delivered these will hopefully last a long time and be reliable.
I think everyone loves a bic biro!
The biggest win? This giant pack of 50! I swear, they multiply in the pen drawer. Seriously, though, for the price, you can’t go wrong. Perfect for classrooms, offices, or just having a stash at home for random notes.
Pens exactly what I wanted seem to work fine the issue tho lately is Amazon delivery drivers seemingly leaving parcels in a safe place so they say if a public footpath in the floor outside your front door is a safe place that’s a new to me and Amazon messenger service got no way of dealing with this issue I was home and fortunately heard the parcel thrown in floor this is regular basis for me lately I haven’t registered a safe place on my account so I feel it necessary to put it here

BIC is the best for a simple biro.
I write a lot and make lots of notes and I think these are the best pens to have. For the Qty the price is great and I find the 1mm size the best, anything larger is too big.
I find the pen design makes it easy to hold for long periods of time.
Great to have a couple in the bottom of your bag at work or at your desk.
