Pens are great for creating clean lines that stand out. The multitude of color make notes clearer and almost never smudge. But, when you make a mistake, it means crossing it out or starting over. Not with erasable ink!
Designed for those of us who like to write with a pen but also sometimes make an occasional mistake, erasable pens are equipped with an erasable ink that won’t smudge when writing and can be neatly erased as though it were a pencil. Here are some fantastic erasable pens we recommend.
Purchasing Erasable Pens
An erasable pen should be erasable (of course, right?), but there are a few other things you should also consider:
- Color: If colored ink is acceptable, then write in as much color as you can handle! Consider a pack with a rainbow of hues, as they can help you color-code your work with ease. If black or blue is preferred, then make sure the pack of pencils you choose has those colors. These colors are often more accepted in formal workplaces and on tests.
- Point: From fine to medium to ballpoint, the point of the pen typically will come down to personal preference and how you are planning to use the pen.
- Grips: Great on any writing device, proper grips are not always necessary for a secure hold. If you plan on doing a lot of writing, grips can save your finger from the soreness that comes from consistent use.
- Eraser Included: If the eraser is included — great! If not, be sure you are prepared to purchase an eraser that will erase the pen ink.
