Pen Collection and Swatches - www.randomolive.com

I have an obsession with office supplies and I’m a bit of a pen hoarder. One thing that I enjoy doing is swatching out my writing utensils to see how the colors compare between brands.

The Test: Each pen is used on white notebook paper and a yellow legal pad. You can click on the image below for a larger view.

The Pens: (links are affiliate) Paper Mate InkJoy 100 | Paper Mate InkJoy 300 RT | Paper Mate Profile Elite | Pilot Acroball | Paper Mate Flair

The Conclusion: Orange is another tough color to find in pens. The Papermate Inkjoys provided a darker ink color than the Papermate Profile on white paper, but all were disappointing on yellow paper. The two Papermate Flairs provided the darkest and boldest color.
