Firstly, this is for one pen. We will send one of the designs shown. On to the description! Sometimes, when you have a reluctant writer, they need a little gimmick – a special pen or pencil just for that one challenging subject. A squishy cactus pen is sure to be a hit! An enthusiastic writer would get a kick out of this pen too. The pen itself writes very nicely with a fine black point. The smooth plastic shaft measures ~7” long with the silicone top 1.5” being the soft part. The cap snaps on and off, and the cactus pot can be pulled off and put back on. This is just adorable! If you order multiples, we will send an assortment. ~Sara
Publisher's Description of Cactus Gel Pen (black ink; assorted style)
BCmini gel pen uses a gel-based ink, combining the permanence of oil-based ballpoint ink and the smooth glide of water-based ink, in which pigment is suspended in a water-based gel. Gel ink is thick and opaque, it shows up more clearly on dark or slick surfaces than the typical inks used in ballpoint or felt tip pens.
Gel pens can be used for varies types of writing and illustration. Fine-tip gel pens let you fit more writing onto every page and card. They make your handwriting neater by creating sharper, more consistent lines. As they don’t put as much ink on the page as broader pens, they dry faster and are less prone to smudging.
Whether you
have a student who adores writing or one who is more reluctant, these pens are
sure to be a hit! With different characters atop each pen that wiggle when you
write, these pens will encourage smiles throughout the writing process. The pen
measures about 8.5” long and has a fine point
tip and a cap. A wonderful option for helping encourage focus and a love of
writing.
