felt-tip pens
Ink-soaked fiber writers
Felt-tip pens are writing instruments that use a porous fiber tip to deliver ink, producing bold, smooth lines.
The tip absorbs ink from an internal reservoir and releases it through capillary action.
They range from fine-point markers for writing to broad tips for highlighting or artwork: She labeled the boxes with a felt-tip pen.
Also called felt-tipped pens or simply markers.
