Writech Retractable Hightlighters Chisel Tip Assorted Colors (Vintage)

Product Information

Although the retracting mechanism is cool, what I liked the most about this set of highlighter pens is that they are refillable. You only need to buy one set of markers and then ink refills in the future. This feature makes these markers quite eco-friendly, which is always a good thing. If you have a highlighter that dried out because you lost the cap, you can revive it by dipping the nib in some rubbing alcohol. Once the alcohol has seeped into the nib and the core, this should be enough to get the highlighter writing again.

These are traditional highlighter markers and all of them have the familiar chisel-tipped nibs that you would expect from this kind of product. I usually use these markers for organizing notes and highlighting bible passages. For those purposes, these markers work quite well. If you like to color-code your notes or use many different colors when you are highlighting entries in your textbooks, you will love this set of highlighters. I like using these highlighters for my bible journal because I can use a different color for every day of the week, and I still have more to choose from. Are you a teacher or do you have your own business that employs a few people? If you are, then you would love this product. I hold a couple of bible study groups, and I regularly give out these highlighters to members who ask for them, and getting almost a hundred markers for an affordable price makes it very easy. This was one of the first highlighters that I owned that had dual tips. At first, I thought it was an unnecessary feature but after using these markers for a while, I noticed that these dual tips added more utility to the highlighters. The chisel tips are great for the usual highlighter uses and the fine bullet points are great for outlines and lettering.Because these highlighter pens use gel inks, you do not need to place that much pressure on the tips to get a consistent and uniform layer of ink. This means that you will not be wrinkling the paper when you highlight the words. In addition, the ink is so translucent that the words underneath will still be easily readable. You need a highlighter with ink that is bright and contrasts well against the paper. This will make them easier to see when you are reviewing. Another thing to take note of is that the ink should be translucent enough that you can still clearly read the words underneath.

Not that many people think too much when they are buying highlighters. Most people just get the first one that they see. However, if you want to have the best highlighter pen for whatever task that you have in mind, you need to choose the one that comes with your required features. There are also several small details about these pens with a highlighter on top that I liked a lot. For instance, the cap is see-through and twist-off. This makes it easier to remove and replace the cap without damaging the nib. The set also comes with a clear plastic case so your markers will always stay organized.I also liked that these highlighters contain a lot of ink. I have been using the same marker for at least a couple of months and it still writes as clear as ever. I think that it will take more than a year for me to go through the entire set of 6. These highlighter pens come with durable, chisel-point felt tips. This makes them ideal for highlighting passages, but if you hold them with the narrow edge down, you can also use them to jot down short notes. These markers are also a good investment for students who want to keep their notes organized. I gave a set of these markers to my mother so she can organize her handwritten recipes. She loved how these markers did not smear and smudge her handwritten notes. Speaking of the colors, they are quite bright and vibrant but they are still translucent. However, I do not use darker shades for highlighting fine letters as they tend to be a bit too dark. The lighter colors, though, are great for bible journaling.

Typically, the average highlighter pen can last for a year of regular use. If you are a heavy user, a good highlighter might last at least 3 to 4 months. On the other hand, if this is for personal use, then you are set for at least a couple of years. Even though these highlighters are so cheap, their chisel-point nibs write smoothly. I usually use them to highlight bible passages and they work quite well for that purpose. I also do a bit of calligraphy, and I use them for practicing my strokes. The chisel-tipped nib, which is a staple in traditional highlighters like this product, is quite flexible, but still retains its shape for the entire lifespan of the marker. I like to use the 4mm wide side of the nib for highlighting paragraphs, and the narrower 1mm side for individual words and sentences. Another nice thing about these markers is that they come with handy cap clips. This means that you can attach these markers to a keychain so you will always have easy access to them. In addition, you can attach this entire set of markers in a large key ring so you will not lose them. One of the selling points of this set of highlighter pens is the push-button retractable nibs, which is pretty much like what some ballpoint pens have. However, unlike retractable ballpoint pens, these markers also come with automatic seals that prevent their nibs from drying.
