31 Sharpie Medium Point Art Pens: Review

Disclaimer: older models of this pen were called Sharpie Fine Point Marker Pens and had slightly different packaging. Despite the new name and packaging, the pens perform the same.

There’s nothing I love more than a good writing utensil. As someone who has fully embraced technological organizational methods, I will happily admit that sometimes, the pen and paper method is downright therapeutic. Enter: Sharpie Medium Point Art Pens. These babies are a staple in my pencil case, and at this point, I use them almost exclusively.

The Overview


Overall, I would absolutely recommend Sharpie Medium Point Art Pens not only to a friend, but to whoever is willing to even pretend to listen to me rave about them. I first started using Sharpie Medium Point Art Pens in the beginning of college. They were great for note taking, and they allowed me to color code. If you haven’t noticed by now, office supplies and organization are kind of my passion. I know, I know—really deep stuff. The ink flows easily across the page, allowing for smooth writing without the cringe-inducing potential for skipping or bleeding. I have used these pens on different surfaces, and it’s important to note that they perform the best on lined or printer paper. While they are marker pens, they are not like the typical Sharpie Marker that will show up and stay put on a glossy surface.

Sharpie Medium Point Art Pens come in a variety of colors, and I have tried them all! Like I said…passion. The colors offered include black, red, blue, violet, and orange, just to name a few. Some colors have a bolder ink than others, so be aware that colors like turquoise and orange might not be as vivid blue or black. Whether you’re note-taking, doodling, journaling, or writing in what comes across as a sad, handwritten book a la Kristen Wiig in Bridesmaids, Sharpie Pens will have your back.

The Details


Sharpie Medium Point Art Pens feature a .5mm ballpoint and a non-retractable tip. The ink is water resistant, which makes any kind of liquid casualties (I’m looking at you, “I drink wine while I grade papers” crowd) a non-issue. Your paper might be crinkled and useless, but your ink will look brand new! While the old packaging (featured in the pictures in this post) features a black cap, newer models include color-coded caps that make it easy to quickly grab the exact marker you want without the fuss of sorting through a bunch of different pens.

The Bottom Line


As you know by now, I love Sharpie Medium Point Art Pens. They are versatile enough for all kinds of uses, and I would be lying if I said I don’t have them laying around my house, office, and purse because they are all I ever use. Stores like Target, Walmart, and Staples sell packs of three, five, and beyond, so go get yourself a pack and give them a try. Pricing starts around $3, depending on your store location, so joining the club of Sharpie Pen lovers won’t even break the back. And let me tell you, it’s quite blissful over here. If you’re still one the fence, here’s my rating breakdown:

Overall Rating: 9.5/10
Smoothness: 10/10
These are not only great for note taking and list making, but they also rock for drawing because they write so smoothly.
Ink pigmentation: 9/10
They lose a point because some colors aren’t as pigmented as others.
Pen life: 10/10
I’ve had some of my pens for years, and they continue to perform like the day I bought them.
Overall performance: 10/10 Sharpie Medium Point Art Pens won’t bleed through paper, and they dry quickly enough that smudging is never a problem. The ink also stands up against fading, so your notes and pictures will stay looking fresh and clean over time.

 

11 “D” Pen 

Here’s a product that you can use every day and probably most of the day. You constantly need a pen. You need one at work, at school, at home, and maybe even during extra-curricular activities.

Basic Features

  • Fade-proof, durable tip, quick drying
  • Material: Stainless Steel [RUST-FREE]
  •  Pen Point Type: Bold
  • Ink Color: Black
  •  Dimensions (Overall): 4.4 inches (L) x .4 inches (W)

Elaborated Features

1. Professional Look 

When you show up for an interview, a meeting, work, or school, you want to be well prepared and have the best supplies to do that. “D” Pen has a neutral but polished sterling-silver color as compared to many other pens that are multicolored or bright, less professional.

2. A customizable message,

quote,

company name,

phone number, etc. 

“D” Pen is priced at $4.01, but if you order more than 10 it will be $2.35 per pen. You can order these pens in bulk and use them as company pens, staff pens, sports team pens, etc.. You can use it for anything you need. Be sure to customize it with up to 2 lines of text on each side.

3. Stylus

You do not have to carry an additional stylus because you already have it on your pen; it’s 2-in-1.

Sometimes you’re in the middle of eating a finger food and then your phone rings or you get a text message. You want to respond immediately but you do not want to get your phone dirty.

You can pick up “D” Pen and navigate on your device. The stylus is compatible with all kinds of technology gadgets: apple watches, Samsung watches, iPhones, androids, tablets, kindles, Bluetooth devices, and TVs.

 

 

The pen is easy to run under water and clean because of the stainless-steel material. It will not rust.


4. Refillable Ink

You won’t have to waste the pen after the ink runs out. The ink refills are available at some of your local stores like Walmart, Office Depot, and Staples.

5. Uncloggable Ink 

Sometimes you have that one pen that appears to have full ink, but you have to tap it on the table a couple of times, then you scribble a few times, and hit it just a couple more times then, FINALLY, it works.

You shouldn’t have that problem with “D” Pen.

6. Rotating feature to reveal the tip 

As you rotate the pen you will see the message, business name etc. on it. Additionally, the rotating works better than a “click” to avoid damaging the stylus.

7. Pocket Clip

Rather than rummage through your bookbag, handbag, pencil case, and pockets, hook the pen on your shirt for easy access. “D” Pen can clip onto many different fabrics and materials. 

8. Wear the pen

If you really want to start something you can wear the pen as an accessory.

You’ve seen those people wear their favorite pin on their book bag, handbag, shoes, hats, etc, right?  You can wear “D” Pen as well. It’s just as shiny, if not shiner than the gold pins you see on some blazers.

“D” accessory will help you stand out from the crowd and you’ll have easy access to it as well. Feel free to clip the pen on your belt loop or back pocket as well. Hook it where ever you want!

9. Affordable Price

The product is $4.01. Now you are wondering, “well, that’s weird. Why is it $4.01 and not like a ‘regular’ number like something . 99?” The price is as unique as the product.

“D” Pen has an affordable price for your convenience. You may even buy an additional one to give as a gift.

Do not throw away your money. Invest it in your future.

 Invest in my future by buying a pen?

Yes.

Exceptional Black Panthere Fountain Pen ($17,800…before tax)

  • The pen is way overpriced. This pen does not include a stylus. It has an animal shape on the top which every one may not be comfortable with. The brief description does not include a weight but from the details of the materials, the pen appears to be heavy.

Wacom Pro Pen ($69.99)

This pen’s tip does not retract. The pen does come with a bulky case that is too big to comfortably fit in your pocket.

Do NOT settle for another pen that you cannot “D”(e)Pen(d) on! 

p.s.

From experience, I can tell you that as you write with “D” Pen you’ll feel more motivated to work. You know, it’s related to that saying like if you’re dressed for success you’ll probably be a little more successful knowing that you are prepared and look your best. The same goes for “D” Pen! You go to school, your meeting or interview and instead of digging in the bottom of your bag for a low-quality pen, grab “D” pen. There’s something about it.

It’s one of those pens that prompts you to start practicing your autograph. It gives you that edge.
