rOtring 800 Retractable Ball Point Pen, Black Barrel, Medium Point Blue Refill - 2032579

rOtring pen is a very good quality product. Excellent pen. Beautifully executed.

nice presentable pen but too expensive , great things comes with great price, who ever hold the pen feel expensive

Fair price for high end product.

Really great pen that is nice with fine tip black gel refills, with the only issue is that sometimes it needs pliers to open if it is too stiff (keep those with you maybe!). I clearly clarify I think there’s degrees of possibly reasonable or unreasonable suspicion some have around what pen manufacturers do and this whole culture around writing equipment, however I’m certainly impressed with the weight and style of this pen. In actual fact, ignoring pens and stationery seems to be a trend for people to sleepwalk into resulting in an own goal, even though nice pens clearly can help people enjoy the activity of glyphing (Inb4 wrong phrase) which is the activity of creating alphabet/symbology that people understand, essentially “writing ideas down” to generate degrees of truth, truths, math, etc.

Un beau stylo, Rotring est proche de l'excellence dans son domaine, la couleur noire tranche sur la couleur aluminium habituelle...

Eu já possuía a lapiseira Rotring 800 0.5 mm e resolvi adquirir a caneta correspondente, e ela também é de excelente qualidade.

I read the reviews about the Rotring 800 and went back and forth between it and the 600. After researching and reading about them both, I decided to go for the 800. I have owned a Rotring pencil for almost 30 years and enjoy it but never liked the protruding tube that holds the lead. I've poked myself a few times. That helped to decide on the 800. Plus, I wanted a decent pen and to have a matching set (pen and pencil) was attractive.I have a Waterman Perspective and enjoy it for my contemplative writing. It is almost twice the weight of the Rotring 800 and is superbly balanced. The 800 is my go-to pen. I use it for work and general notes. Smooth as silk, doesn't not rattle as others have mentioned with theirs. Love the balance of it and tho it has some weight, it's not heavy. I read of one person's review elsewhere that the 800 was heavy and they didn't like it. I suspect they might get a hernia lifting a spoon in that case. Of course, the 800 writes much better than a spoon and will not cause hernias or other bodily ailments unless you grip the pen as tight as a life-saving rope. The knurling (i.e., rough texture) for the grip area is just right (for moi): offers enough anti-slip grip without being abrasive.Black ink isn't my fave, but I can live with it for now. Once I use it up, I'll check out something in the blue spectrum, like jazz. Smooth operation, from writing to the twist mechanism to open or close the pen point. And no pokey points to pin your nipple, er, chest. Clips on tightly. Happy writer here.
