## Description

When the school supply list calls for black pens, BIC Glide Bold Black Ballpoint Pens give students and teachers a reliable, bold option built for the demands of the school year. The 1.6 mm thick point creates broad, vivid black lines that are easy to read on lined paper, notebooks, and test forms. Proprietary Easy Glide System ink technology delivers smooth, consistent ink flow so students can write through long class sessions and homework assignments without the pen dragging or skipping. Teachers reach for bold black pens for grading papers, writing comments in the margin, and making annotations that stand out against student work. A retractable design means one click to start writing, with a comfortable round grip that gives students control through extended writing sessions. The built-in clip keeps the pen attached to notebooks and folders so it stays where students put it throughout the school day. Available in black and blue. A reliable choice for any school supply list, any teacher's classroom supply drawer, and any household stocking up for the school year.

Review: Nice pens - Love these pens. They write so nice. Glide beautifully
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.

## 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..

*by P***J on April 12, 2026*

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.
