Review: Just like the Velocity - If you like how the Bic velocity writes, these are the perfect copy and cheaper. So happy. It's one of those pens where you just write a little extra because it's so smooth and bold and easy. Also, comfortable. I have fat hands and like a thicker pen, sometimes adding my own rubber grip. These don't need it.
Review: Worth the money!! - These are the best pens ever!! Smooth writing. I wish they would come back out with all the colors like they had before. Purple green pink. My favorite pen of all time.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: When you say 1.6mm bold, do you mean the width of the writing is that wide?**
A: 1.6mm equals .063 of an inch. That number is the width of the pen that you would be holding in your hand. That would be pretty cool if they made a pen that writes that wide, it would use alot of ink. If you have any other questions feel free to reach out.

**Q: What's the difference between this (Atlantis Velocity) and the Velocity pen?**
A: The Atlantis Velocity Bold and the Velocity Bold are the same pen. The Velocity Bold is now known as Atlantis Velocity Bold.

**Q: Is this a gel pen?**
A: It is not a gel pen. It is a ball point pen with an extra large ball that produces think lines similar to a gel pen.

**Q: Are there refills for this pen?**
A: I don't know but the price point is low and they write wonderfully.  Clear and bold.  I hope this helps..

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best Pens I’ve Purchased for Quality and Price...
*by N***R on February 15, 2020*

These are the best pens I’ve found in the past decade. I am extremely picky because I’m a lefty and a contractor that uses writing utensils on job sites from plans to wood measurements with a subcontractor to even contracts. My biggest problem for over 50 years have always been the thin tips I can break off, not get any ink from to the tip breaking entirely but once my daughter showed me these 1.6mm pens exists I haven’t been able to use anything else. I love the blue ones because I typically like a lawyer use those yellow note sheet pads to write on and it’s so much easier to see blue ink on than black ink on it. I also love it for use on official documents and signing contracts as well its a lot easier on my wrists as well. If you are a pen connoisseur like myself and don’t want to break the bank on pens that can be lost easily as many can and from my home office, the expensive messenger bag my daughter bought me (after 40 years of being mobile building with reusable plastic bags to carry paper and spilling coffee she not only got me a bag that wasn’t a briefcase because those were great for my corporate jobs but not at all in my SUV or job sites for me to reuse at all. Then over the years I’ve seen her style from high school to college, grad school for business, city volunteer politics and into Fortune 500 company job with corporate America I’ve seen her purses, lack of purses and migration to tank bags on her sport motorcycle with backpacks that held helmets then to tote bags and messenger bags that carried her purse items in it too there wasn’t a bag neither of had seen reasonable for a dirty job site that wasn’t very feminine and plain black without any print even brand names) That is until this holiday where she found me the perfect one so hopefully I won’t be losing and finding pens on an average of about 2-3 a week overall gone and having to rebuy but these Velocity 1.6mm are extremely durable as I’ve dropped a few on the ground and then stepped on them in my work boots and nothing happened to them not even a broken clip on the side. I will say I live a block away from Target, Staples, and a bunch of other places where the lowest I’ve seen these pens for a single box for was $15.99 and then last week I went to Staples needing ink where my daughter does all the stocking of my office supplies and manages all my paperwork I’m so greatful it’s been a while since being in a supply store and this same box right now is $21.99 at Staples sadly. Amazon is the Best Deal and won’t go anywhere else. Definitely worth the money, the quality and the price.
