rOtring 1904291 Rapid PRO Ballpoint Technical Drawing Pen for Professional Drafting and Artwork

Daniel A. Januszko: The pen is pretty good! Nice weight, diameter, and feel. I think the retractable button on top is soft, and not what I'm use to. But should be ok.

Brads07: I have purhased this pen a number of time because I keep losing them. I like the feel and weight of this pen. I think it is well constructed and a good value for the money.

Victor: Has a nice weight and balance, which makes this metal pen feel premium and sturdy. The included ink refill is nice as well. I prefer using this over the Parker Jotter for my Parker style refills, as it's larger with a decent (if not a bit TOO textured) grip. I wish it was a bit easier to slide the pen into a pocket or bag slot though - the clip is just too tight without much curvature leading underneath the clip.

SachaSacha: Je suis fan des produits rotring, celui-ci est beau et a une bonne prise en main.
La teinte noire est très différente de la teinte grise beaucoup plus métallique.

Cowboy: I'm not a big ball point fan. BUT Rotring has come up with a winner here. It pairs very well with its retractable pencil counterpart. It also accepts the Fisher Space Pen refills that write on anything anywhere. I use this pen when I go out in the field and need a pen that will stand the abuse and weird writing angles one ends up with. The Rotring refill itself also writes well and is interchangeable with Parker refills if that's your preference. A very durable pen (its metal)!

Drew S.: I was fortunate enough to have acquired one of these pens prior to buying this one and instantly loved that one enough to buy another. They have a comfortable weight and mimic the feel of a pencil with a textured grip. They are refillable and if you have an ink preference, I am sure you can easily find an ink that will suit your needs. They are all metal and as such have an unmatched durability and unlike bulkier pens they are comfortable to use and won’t cause fatigue. Overall they are a well-balanced pen that should last you for a very long time. Some may read this and say “a pen is a pen” and I can understand that but if you are an artist or writer I feel like you will be satisfied with this purchase.

Nick K: As a millennial, I think I'm inclined towards stationary and writing utensils. When I was little, I loved going back-to-school shopping and getting pencils, pens, crayons, markers, Trapper-Keepers (later, Five Star binders), and notebooks. Since then, I've always loved getting new pens.

I was in the market for a durable pen and had remembered reading an article on either ArsTechnica or The Atlantic a few years ago about rOtring. Upon reading the reviews here, I settled on the rOtring Rapid Pro ballpoint pen.

The first thing that struck me was its heft. It's definitely heavier than other pens I've used but it feels sturdy in hand. The matte black finish on the aluminum and the knurled grip make it feel secure while I'm writing.

This pen is a dream to write with. It flows smoothly over paper and makes my note taking a lot easier. Additionally, the ink doesn't smudge or smear, which is a problem I'd been having with my previous pen, a Pilot Dr. Grip.

Overall, while expensive compared to other ballpoint pens, this is worth the cost if you take copious handwritten notes and want a pen that feels great in hand.
