Pros & Cons
Pros
The writing is typically very smooth, not scratchy like many other fine point pens. They reliably write on almost any surface. They write well, smoothly and no skips.
Both use pentel ink made in japan, and at first glance they look almost exactly the same. Highly recommended. But amazon for the win.
The only problem i have with these pens is when i lend them to people and they borrow them forever. These are impressive and very utilitarian pens. These pens perform far better than any other pen i've ever owned.
The ink flows well without much soaking in and making blobs. Most importantly for me is how quickly it dries, even on smooth paper. The sharpie smears a bit less on smoother papers, but overall the pentel energel is superior.
Cons
The pens were mailed in a plastic amazon bag. Sometimes one month in, sometimes fresh out of the box, these pens crack where the body of the pen and the base of the gripper meet. The pen itself is cheap plastic and makes it impossible to use.

They do not work well if you like to keep notes on your skin, it will clog the tip and you won't be able to continue to write with it.
5 as it leaves behind a sharp image on many types of writing surfaces.
Price
My favorite pens a a good price.
And frankly speaking, it doesn't cost much money to buy these marvels of a writing instrument!
These pens are cheaper than buying one at a time.
The price is within an old retired woman's budget and i feel confident when i put pen to paper.

Competitiveness
There is no comparison as the writing from the energels are so much easier to read, so much smoother, and the energel ink flows... Read More

Pens write great but when you first attempt to write with them you have to work off a coating of some sort from the tips

A while later i went to a local office supply store that had these pens and tested the different size points to see if i may have liked one of the other point sizes better
