Is this pen easy to write with when wearing rubber gloves?
1720421
Yes it is. And it writes on the rubber gloves really well if you have to take notes.

I use it daily in my hospital wearing nitrile & vinyl gloves, grip and dexterity is perfect. Plus I can wash/sanitize the pen right afterward.

It also works with Nitrile (Latex-Free) gloves. It's not slippery with either glove type like pens of "very smooth" finish can be. Easy to operate with one hand, too. The gloves stick well to it to the point you can slide your thumb against it and expose/hide pen tip with little effort with one hand operation.

It's as easy to write with as any other pen. The point is it writes all the time, on wet or dry surfaces and in almost any position.

no, it is textured a bit. You would need a few sheets of paper or a pad uner your paper to write smoothly.

Yes, I can write with this wrist support. That's actually why I bought it - I have a more inhibiting brace that I wear to workout in & anything else that really strains my wrist, then I wear this most of the day at work when typing and writing.

I bought the pencil and pen for my son who is the only left handed person in our household. (I am able to use both hands but, am primarily a right handed person) my son has issues with writing legibly. He has told me that the smaller pens/pencils are too narrow. I guess because he is in grade school, this is so much easier for him to handle. I myself prefer fatter pens. I think it depends on your grip and how you hold pens/pencils. I guess in the great scheme of things, it is universal, however I think it boils down to preference. And when my son said his hand ended up hurting while using smaller, narrower pens/pencils, I thought I'd give this a try. I'm glad I did.

Hi A. Held! The Friendly Swede here:-) Apologies for the late reply, we're cleaning house on questions and noticed we missed yours! I would describe it as soft and pliable, not a firm writing tip. We do have some that are more firm for writing though, I'd be happy to show you some other options. Let me know if I can help you further at this link:

Light but balance is good. Yes, if you do not have a heavy hand when writing. Hope this helps.

Its better than any of the pens I have found so far, I baught this so customers could sign my Samsung phone or tablet, and it does alot better than the large tip pens, but be careful because the rubber tip falls out. And its very hard to find once lost. Hope this helps.

The pen does not write as easily as a rollerball pen, but it is a great pen to carry around in your pants pocket and not worry about ink wicking onto your clothes.

I love these pens!!! It does thought take about 10-20 seconds to dry.... I love them but if u r planning to write with them and ur left handed I wouldn't suggest unless u want a colorful hand!!

No, you will have to use a capacitive stylus. It gets the job done in One Note but no palm rejection. I agree you can't beat a digitizer pen.

The grip is fine. I have had no problem removing it from my shirt pocket. I did think on this pen it ran out of ink faster than it should. The refill are small and expensive.

In a way, by how easily it writes and the ink flows without much effort, but it most certainly is not a gel pen. I too enjoy gel pens but I must say as an ink ballpoint this is certainly as close as one can get to a gel pen. Hope that helps, also it's a bit like gel pens in that once you get really writing and you realize all the ink is finished before you know it haha.

Sure! Your pen needs to have ink flow stimulated by some form of "suction". The easiest and gentlest method I've found is to ball up a kleenex and run it very gently with the smooth side of the nib. Just gently "wipe" the nib in a downward motion until you see ink in the kleenex. Then try to gently "write" on the kleenex with the pen. If you get no lines, just keep the gentle downward wipe with the nib and you'll soon get it. Whatever you do, don't use "writing" on paper as a way of making the pen have flow. It's not a ballpoint! You'll wear down your nib which needs inky lubrication to perform well. Sure! Your pen needs to have ink flow stimulated by some form of "suction".

No. It is a nice pen. Some difficulty with zippers but would buy again. It is convenient and nice looking

Yes, the pen point comes through the rubber, and works pretty much the same as any retractible ball-point pen. It doesn't take a *lot* of pressure, so you may very rarely find yourself touching your phone or tablet with the pen point, but this won't happen often if you're holding it the same as you would a pen for writing. Also, I find the rubber is a tiny bit stiff when using a pen for the first time, but it will soften with a few minutes of use.

Yes, the pen writes reliably, immediately, smoothly, and doesn't skip. However, if you leave the cap off for multiple minutes without writing, the tip will dry slightly and may write lightly until it rewets.

Yes, or rather, it's an ambi pen; there are finger rests on both sides so the grip is the same. The nib writes smoothly from various angles and the ink flow is consistent. It will write well in the left hand. (enjoy)
