ParkerJotter 3 Colours - 1 Black + 1 Blue + 1 Red Ballpoint Pen

I don't exactly know why I am a pen guy, but there it isI spent most of my life writing with Bik ballpoint pens for 10 cents or so. Working in Fortune 100 companies, I wanted to have a good, more classy pen. I bought a set of cross pens, and they are great and supposed to be the best. However, these Parker pens are right in the middle of a cheap Bik pen and a Cross pen. I actually value them more then my Cross pens.I have not received these pens yet until I get back to the place that they were delivered. However, I already know that they will be just what I have wanted for over 20 years. If they don't measure up, I will update this review.I ordered the stainless steel version, which is twice the price of the other colors. The stainless steel version is much classier than the colored versions. It outshines the rest. However, the red, blue, and black versions are just as good and classy.It is easy to buy new refills for these pens for under $10 for a pack of three in either black or blue ink.I keep losing these pens for some reason that I have not figured out yet. It is easy to lose a little thing like a pen while traveling or whatever. I have kept one in my right pants pocket, and it has lasted for over 5 years for me. I had about 5 of these pens a few years ago, and they are all lost except for this one in my right pocket.The clicking noise is what I like the best. It is a good click. The pen is solid, and I really enjoy the product that the Parker people keep producing. It is a classy pen and good quality that lasts forever -- unless you misplace it or lose it.If you like a quality ball point pen, then these are the pens to buy. Jeez. I sound like a salesman. But I am simply a completely satisfied customer.By the way, most of my Parker pens have lasted for years without a refill, depending of course on how much you use them. Just have these refills handy for $10/three, and you are good for many years.

I found my self in need of a dependable, stylish pen when the one I had used for years ran out of ink and I could not find replacement refills. I knew Parker to be economical, good looking and to have available refill cartridges, the bigger ones not the stick, plastic tube type. I received my 3 pack in just 2 days and started using one immediately. I decided to check the other 2 before putting them away and one had a dry cartridge. Called customer service and I was treated like one of the company owners! Very sincere apologetic rep who sent me out a replacement immediately even though the replacement cartridges come in a two pack! I am very pleased in all aspects.

Years ago, I had several Parker T-ball jotter pens, which I really loved. I changed to gel pants for many years, but, lately , the gel pens have been drying up on me and requiring scrubbing, scrubbing, scrubbing on paper to get them primed to where the gel would come out I decided to fall back on my Parker pens like I used to use all the time. These three pans arrived. They are much thinner to hold, although they look identical to the old ones that I used to use. My hand is large, but not overly show. I’m not sure if I will get used to their slender profile. My hand keeps losing its grasp of the thinner, smooth cylinder. They write smoothly, as they did before. I believe I will put these pens into my pen can and use them for a quick note jotting here or thereBut not for serious prolonged penmanship. Maybe my family members may prefer slender profile pens. If they do, I have some great pens for them. I highly recommend the Parker or anyone who appreciates fun writing equipment like I do, and particularly this model for people who like thinner pens.

These pens remind me of to 70s or 80s. I remember my grandfather always had this type of pen in his shirt pocket. This is a great nostalgic item with a cool vintage vibe. My only complaints would be that the packaging said it was only for the India market and not to be sold outside of India so it would be kind of weird to gift these pens with that marking to someone. Also, I was under the impression that the red one would write red, that the black one would write black, and that the blue one would write blue, but this was not that case. All 3 of them, regardless of the color of the plastic on each pen, all write blue. Still a cool item and they all write nice and are well made.

Parker's Jotters are simply the best ballpoint pens that anyone has ever made. I have multiple sets of these pens for use at each of my desks and to carry with me. I'm not that crazy about Parker's ink cartridges though. I prefer to use either Fisher's Space Pen cartridges or Jaymo's pressurized ink cartridge refills.
