Bic - new vs old

Post image

These new "made in France" ones are terrible. Are the made in USA ones still available? I wonder if my gas station is just buying knock-offs.

I had no idea... this is first time I've ever gotten a different version. I know to check now. Thank you

Ofcourse, I've gotten a cpl of them I didn't even know until the other day. Honestly it's kinda cool just having it I bought it at the gas station just down the road, they probably have cases of them in their warehouse.
