Scriveiner Personalized Black Rollerball Pen - Stunning Luxury Pen, Jet Black Lacquer & Real Gold Plating, Schmidt Ink Refill, Best Engraved Roller Ball Gift for Men & Women, Custom Name Engraving

Exceptional writing instrument! I am amazed at how it just easily glides across the pages. Its smooth action and comfortable weight fit my hand so well. I had it engraved and it looks and feels elegant but solid. Now I am spoiled and can’t imagine writing with a cheap Bic or another pen ever again!

This writes so easily and is so elegant in appearance and quality. I chose a customized one with name of the user. It made a wonderful birthday gift for my son.

I've had mine for a year and it's a great pen! I like the looks, the balance and the way it feels to write with it. I recommend getting the ceramic never-dry refills, so if the cap is left off for a bit, it's fine.

I admit to having a weird thing about pens or writing instruments in general. It's not to the the point of being a fetish, but I do love them. This pen gets everything right for me. It has a certain heft to it without being too bulky. It feels good in the hand and looks beautiful. I love rollerballs and this one flows so smoothly. Everything about it feels like quality, and at the price, it represents a great value. I have now purchased four of these Scriveiner pens (two stainless - (one was for my son), the black/green, and the fountain pen) and each has proven to be fantastic. I also had a question and their customer service person was incredible in her response and desire to make sure I got what I needed. These will be the pens I carry every day from now on.

A Solid Performer with Noticeable Trade-Offs When reviewing any pen, it’s essential to consider both the competition and what sets it apart. I’ve used this pen extensively and compared it directly to the Zebra G-450, a $10 gel pen that sets a high bar in terms of ink quality, balance, and reliability. Writing Performance: This pen writes smoothly and has a visually sleek design, but its ink tends to bleed through the paper more than the G-450, especially on standard notebook paper. If you’re writing on both sides of a page, this becomes a noticeable issue and can make your notes look messy. The ink color also leans toward a brown-black, which, while unique, doesn’t provide the crisp contrast you’d get from the G-450’s more true black tone. Build and Comfort: In terms of physical feel, the pen is lightweight without the cap, which is nice for long writing sessions, but the moment you post the cap, it becomes top-heavy, throwing off the balance. That said, compared to the G-450, it does fatigue the hand less over extended use. This makes it a better fit for people who write quickly or take long notes, assuming they can overlook the ink bleed issue. Conclusion: This pen has a place—its smooth writing, lighter grip, and distinct ink tone offer a nice alternative to more rigid, weighty pens. However, for precision, clean double-sided note-taking, and a richer black ink, the Zebra G-450 remains the stronger option. This pen is good—but it’s has some catching up to do.

Really nice pen. Has good weight to make it feel that more luxe. Ink is almost gel like, glides well. Will buy in the future

This is a beautiful pen. It is an outstanding gift. Our recipient loved it. It screams of class. I can see why the king of England likes it.

Highly recommended if you want to give an elegant and timeless gift, this pen fits the bill. It definitely has the WOW factor when opening the box and seeing the craftsmanship and engraving, and really the whole presentation. I also purchased the set of 4 refills which fit in the box under the pen along with the refill they provide with the pen. The pen itself has a nice weight to it, but not excessively so. I choose the blue and it’s a rich, deep, beautiful color. The writing is very smooth and upon testing the ink dried quickly. In case anyone finds this useful, the pen is 5.5” and the box it comes in approximately 7”L x 2.5”W x 2”H rounding up. Lastly, a huge shout out to their customer service team (“Jul”) for helping me get the package on time since there was supposed to be a delay but they contacted the carrier and it arrived just in time to give the gift since there was a short window for visiting with the recipient of the gift.
