Talk about different approaches.  I just bought a box of 8 mixed color extra fine point permanent ink markers!  My husband prefers pencils, hates ink pens.

I prefer gel but I’ll use anything.

Most people I know who hate ink pens have had them rupture or leak in their shirts.

FWIW

Almost any pen can leak if given the chance.

I was really odd man out as few attorneys offices use anything but pencil when reading or reviewing docs.  My cohorts in crime used to say "here comes Ms Ego with her ink pen" as they marked docs up furiously with sticky notes and pencils.  My DH used to have his ends leak in his shirt,pockets, 90% of the time I could spray the stain with Aqua Net hair spray and t would wash right out if it was a normal ink pen.  Gel pens were trickier.

Gel pen ink is permanent. Isn’t it oil based?

I don't know.  I like them but we always had the clients sign in old fashioned dark blue ink (before colored copying machines) so we could tell original from copies.

LOL... 

I've never used a gel pen.

I used to like them but for some reason I dont now.  I think its because in the past the tip would dry out.  You should try one...they do tend to write very smoothly 

Do they even make blue ink anymore?
