Rapid Pro Black Ballpoint Pen

This is a solid, well-balanced pen that feels premium in the hand. Its full-metal body provides a satisfying weight without being tiring, and the knurled grip offers excellent control, even during extended writing sessions. The click mechanism is smooth and reliable, and the refill delivers consistent, dark ink with no skipping. While it's on the pricier side, it's a durable, professional-grade pen that's worth the investment for those who write regularly and appreciate quality design.

It’s a great pen. The gnarling on the grip is crisp, it looks cool and I like extra weight of the metal casing. Easy to find replacement ink at staples.

I was surprised by how much I like the rapid pro over the normal 600. The slightly thicker grip makes a world of difference when it comes to comfort over longer writing sessions. And for some reason, I feel like I can write faster with this pen, maybe due to the grippiness of the knurling and the weight distribution. Feels very good, great pen for Parker style refills, I would recommend this all day, everyday.

This pen has an amazing feel to it. We require metal pen bodies at work. The Rotring ink is alright, but the pen became my favorite when I swapped the refill for a Uni Jetstream .38 SXR-600-38 refill. The one drawback is the red line. That's a plastic fitting. Carrying it in my pocket, it started to come just a tiny bit loose. I tightened it and found I had to keep tightening it. While the metal body looks durable, you need to take care of it - keep it at the desk or in a place that doesn't bend, like the top of a clipboard.

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.

Weighty quality pen. Don’t love the filling it comes with. That’s personal preference these Parker style refills can be had in many other brands and types . Just order what you like. I wanted more like a pentel g- tec or a floating ball so ordered those. If you want options Jetpens is slow but has more choice

Love this pen. I use it everyday at work. Had held up in the rain, cold and heat.

These pens are my all-time favorite, and this one is no exception. I will point out that this one is a little longer, and heavier than the Rotring 600, which is my go-to. Still a fantastic pen. I do swap out the Rotring ink cartridge for the Parker Quink Gel refills. I enjoy them better than the cartridge that comes with the pen. Fast, fluent, smooth. Only pen I use.

Bastante buen producto. Lo recomiendo ampliamente

Muy bien producto. Un saludo

さすがロットリング、適度な重さがいいのか、あまり力を入れずに楽に書ける インクの粘度もいい感じでキレイに字がかけて良い もっとインクが真っ黒だったらもっといいんだけど、そんな贅沢が言いたくなるくらい良い

pen arrived in great condition with blue ink cartridge. I love the feel and look of this pen. Writes smooth with a firm weight.

芯をジェットストリームに変更して使用しています。適度な重さがあり書きやすいです。ロットリング600と比較して指にしっかかる部分がなく滑らかで長時間の筆記に向いてるかと思います。
