Parker Jotter Originals Ballpoint Pen | Classic White Finish | Medium Point | Blue Ink

High quality pen for the price. Feels sturdy when writing. Writes smoothly.

While not a serious collector, I own and enjoy a variety of fine writing instruments. I often shop websites as well as brick-and-mortar stores for a new pen or mechanical pencil to try out.I've owned Parker Jotter pens before. I remember a metal-barrelled one I did not like because the grip was tiresome. I also had one of these plastic-barrelled ones but don't remember using it or where it's gone off to.When shopping, I often came across the Jotter pens. Because of previous experience and the notion that a $10 pen would be neither disposable nor special, I just overlooked them. Recently, during another browsing session, I again encountered some Jotter pens and they came into better focus: legendary status, simple beauty, good reviews, compatible with a world of refill options, and a price that would allow me to carry the pen without the anxiety of losing it.Upon receiving the pen, I was delighted by the writing experience. The grip on the plastic barrel is quite comfortable and suitable for extended use. The Quink cartridge makes for smooth contact with the paper. I may occasionally switch out to a gel refill for darker print. I like the heavy click mechanism and the fact that the plunge button is sprung even after the pen tip is extended. The metal ring on the tip of the barrel is a good idea; it will prevent the hole from wearing or stretching which would make it sloppy around the cartridge tip. The 5" length of the pen is also welcome. It conveys a "cuteness" and the clip will fully engage in any shirt pocket.Bottom line: my red Parker Jotter is now one of my favorite carry pens.

Classic and smart! Writes great! IFYKYK when you see arrow clip!!

The pen itself is comfortable and well-designed, but the ink quality is disappointing. It dries out if unused for an hour, leaving streaks on the paper. The size is decent, and the grip is fine at room temperature, though it gets slippery if your hands are cold. The pen's mechanics and overall functionality are acceptable : good value for the price.

Stylish and high quality!I use it as a lanyard accessory with my flight attendant uniform. Love the pop of red! The clip is tight and strong and it won’t fall off the flat straps of the lanyard.

I have 3 screens opened while I work but I still jot notes for myself and wanted a decent pen. The Parker jotter is smooth, has nice weight and feel compared to the plastic disposables. Good quality.

Excellent we have nothing to complain about, really very good and it was what we was looking for. Nothing to say, we had nothing to complain about.

The click action feels good and the white Jotter looks so cool.
