Review: Very Attractive, Quality Ballpoint Pen - While I was attracted to some of the other E-motion series ballpoints, I chose the Pure Black and I'm glad I did. I see people arguing about which is heavier, the all-metal Pure Black or the resin barrels ones. I haven't held any of the resin barrel ones, but I sincerely doubt a resin barrel is going to be heavier than an all metal one. In any case, I find the weight of the Pure Black to be balanced perfectly. The pen itself is not heavy, but it is substantial, and as I mentioned, perfectly balanced. It's also very handsome with a guilloche pattern inscribed on the barrel. It writes beautifully - as it should considering the price point. I'm glad I bought it. Note: I see some reviewers on desertcart for other Faber-Castell E-motion series pens complaining about ballpoint tips attached with plastic or writing horribly. Frankly, I doubt whether any of those were really authentic Faber-Castell pens. ALL Faber-Castell E-motion pens have metal ends and tips and come with a standard Faber-Castell refill. I certainly don't think they were sold by desertcart, rather by third-party sellers on desertcart. Read third-party seller reviews before ordering - it's only common sense. If there is anything about the pen that doesn't seem right, return it immediately for refund.
Review: Great balance and texture - Great balance on this pen. Texture is perfect. Love this pen (Faber-Castell refills are pretty amazing too)

Great balance on this pen. Texture is perfect. Love this pen (Faber-Castell refills are pretty amazing too)

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ $MOOTH FEEL AND FUNCTION
*by P***. on February 11, 2025*

arrived in factory stock packaging. bag in box, no gift case. feels solid but stubby in my xl hand. close in size to my favorite pens. shape is more bulbous than expected. knurled piece is smooth in my fingers almost slick. writes smooth out of the box. this will stay on my desk, this pen's price was reduced but my favorite pens sell for much less. my favorite pen company does not make a refill to support my e-motion so i will explore the available options. faber castell refills are comparably priced with high quality options. made in germany. should be long lasting
