 Smooth as silk November 2, 2009
J. Ken Stuckey (Boston, Massachusetts USA)
I adore these pens. I bought the nonretractable kind first, and then when the mood struck me to stock up (I do a lot of writing, so I can never have too many pens), I bought this threepack. The only criticism I have is that the pen design indicates the ink color too subtly -- I am forever picking up one thinking it is the black one and then seeing red or blue ink. They don't have to make the whole pen red or blue, but they could make the color band a little more vivid. But although these pens have only been in my possession for eight days, I have not had the breakage problem cited in an earlier review. I have been writing on a lot of cotton stationery, and the ink shows well on thicker, darker sheets without running or smearing. It is, quite simply, the perfect pen. And the rubber grip is a fantastic improvement on the too-skinny barrel of the nonretractable variety.
 Writes well, ugly design October 30, 2009

The new Sharpie Pen: retractable and overweight!
It writes just like the original Sharpie Pen, but it's retractable... and it looks ridiculous. The fat, blunt-tip barrel is better for long writing sessions, but feels bulky in the pocket. The comically-long plunger tends to get in the way when you clip it to your pants pocket. The plunger also looks more out-of-place than the one on the retractable permanent marker because of the generic chrome finish.
I just expected something closer to the minimalist look and feel of the original. Why they diverted so far from that design is beyond me.
 Writes well, when the tip is in good condition September 30, 2009
Cal Williams (Georgia, U.S.A.)
The pen itself looks and writes well, but it has a fatal flaw, in my experience. The Sharpie Pen Retractable tip is not half as durable as the Sharpie Pen, and even if you bear down a little too hard, the tip may be damaged. After the tip gets "compressed" it does not write like it used to and turns into a unbearable pain. This could be a factory defect, but three of the four I have, have proven this dilemma. I was excited to try these out, but the steep price is not quite worth the week of use it contains. I hope I am the only one with this problem, and if you still buy the pen after reading this, make sure not to bear down hard. It can cause problems, trust me, sigh.
LOVE these Sharpies! September 17, 2009

Sharpie addicts rejoice! Behold, the new retractable fine-points (in 3 different colors) that will serve you well in all of your fine-point needs! They seem to hold up well and are comfortable to use. To be honest, I haven't been able to keep mine from walking away for long enough to rate how long they last - I'm not the only Sharpie addict in the house.
Like hte original pens..but better September 9, 2009

I am a huge Sharpie addict. When the pens came out, I knew it was just a matter of time before they made them retractable.
The retractable has a few updates from the original Sharpie pen. As of yet, none of the outer coloring has flaked off of mine, which was an annoyance about the originals. Also, a rubberized grip gives a comfortable hold and they upgraded the clip from plastic to metal.
I can't wait for them to release more colors!
