I love Hauser Pens after I tried then I only use Hauser. They are the ultimate smooth writing pens.

Writes very good and a good quality.

The good: The pen writes good. It is low-viscosity ink. It is smooth and makes dark lines. It is good value for the money paid. The bad: The barrel is NOT what I expected. It looks to me like a thicker barrel that has some sort of grippy coating on it. This is not the case. It is actually a thinner barrel that is hard plastic only - no grippy coating. Also, these pens are made in India. These are not made in Germany.

At last, I no longer have to hunt birds, to cut quills for writing and even more important no more jars of ink on my writing desk. OK,OK no more sarcasm, it is a pen, It writes smoothly and dries quickly, so I don't have to worry about smudging or smearing my writing. The barrel is made of hard plastic, which makes it a bit uncomfortable to hold for long periods of time, but it does its job well.

Think I may have found my favorite daily work pen. I use this pen daily for my note-taking and it's been great to write with. It feels very plasticky but once you start writing it feels smooth to hold. The ink flows out easily and writes extremely smooth and legible without that scratchy feel. And I've yet to encounter any bleed issues or botches. Each pen comes with a rubber cap on the tip of the pen so that it stays fresh for when you're ready to use them.
