Molded grooves on the barrel for comfortable writing. 1.0mm metal tip writes clean medium lines with no skipping or smudging. Refillable with BXTM10 ink refills

Review: Pentel's GlideWrite Executive is a top performer and excellent value - Bottom line: This is a superb, state-of-the-art ballpoint. For details on the GlideWrite Executive, read on. The star of the show is Pentel’s TechniFLO low-viscosity ink, a combination of gel and traditional ballpoint inks. Pentel claims it has 25% less friction than competitive ballpoints (not specified). In my opinion, it as smooth or smoother and more consistent than Schmidt’s easyFLOW 9000 and Pilot’s Acroball, and equivalent or slightly better than Uni’s Jetstream. The 1.0 mm ball (the only point size available at this time) lays down a smooth, consistent, and clean densely pigmented line with no excess ink on a wide range of papers. Drying times are almost instantaneous, so this pen is suitable for left-handed writers. The Executive edition (model BX970) features a weighted metal body with a subtle dimpled pattern in the grip area. Pentel says the body is metal (it is ferromagnetic) and has “chrome accents,” which in advertising parlance suggests it is not metal, but a chrome-finished plastic. The knock appears to be a chrome-finished plastic, but I don’t know if the nose is metal (brass), metal with a chrome-finished plastic shell, or all-plastic with a chrome finish. Regardless, there’s virtually no difference in appearance in the metal clip and the other chrome hardware. There is minor rattle when shaken vigorously, but there are no rattles or clicks when you write, and there is essentially no tip wiggle. The GlideWrite Executive is also available with a matte black body with the same shiny clip and accents. Pentel has a winner in its GlideWrite Executive. It’s writing performance is outstanding; perhaps, the best combination of smoothness, line consistency, ink density, and price of any ballpoint pen I’ve written with. In my opinion, the pen body design is not inspired, but it is balanced and solid, and does not detract from the sheer writing performance of Pentel’s GlideWrite Executive.
Review: Bold ink, smooth writing - I love this pen. I use this pen at work every day on surfaces and in conditions that most pens don't stand a chance. This pen is made out of metal so it has a good grip but is not too heavy. The ink is very smooth flowing and it is bold. Flows like a gel but doesn't smear on your paper. The price was way cheaper than I expected for a pen this good and it is refillable.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Where to buy refills???**
A: As of late March 2020, the refills have not appeared on the Pentel site; I emailed their customer service contact thru the website and after 2 tries, I got a reply saying “it’s kind of new so you just have to keep looking.” NOT an answer you want to hear from a major pen manufacturer- which needs to update their website — look at their competitors’ sites and compare. BUT this is a smooth, nice writing pen— much nicer than anything else in the price range. Let’s hope they get it together. BTW note that the refills for the Executive uses a smaller thinner refill vs the Signature— and in my using, with a fair amount of note taking daily, it ran out in 4 days...

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ great in hand
*by D***N on July 29, 2025*

It writes nice, I was expecting it to have a finer point, but not all pens are equal (even if they say they are) This however is a very comfortable pen to hold, so I feel the overall is a win.
