Ohto Words Black Rollerball Pen - CB-10A-BK

Excellent pen for the price, nice solid glossy plastic body. Light weight, but solid looking. Could be a tiny bit heavier. Cartrage is fine point black, writes very well. I bought this to use G2 gel refills in, but there is a tiny ridge near the tip of the GS gel refills that refuses to fit inside this pen's tip. So it DOES NOT fit G2 gel refills. A great looking pen. Labeling is unobtrusive, just "Words, Ohto" just below the clip. The gold trim looks like it should be on a pen twice as expensive. REfills with Ohto C-305P Ceramic Roller Ball Pen Refill - 0.5 mm. No other refill I tried fits in the pen. Refills are expensive, but write very well. Black refill writes wonderfully, blue and red less so.

The Ohto Words is very light and writes smoothly. I like switching pens when taking notes. Until the Ohto Liberty arrives, I'm pairing Words with my Ohto Dude.

The rollerball refill provides a smoother, more consistent flow of ink (far superior) than my MontBlanc rollerball pen. For the MontBlanc pen, the refills worked fine for the first week, then the feel got "rougher" on the paper, then the ink stopped flowing after the second week. After replacing it 3 - 4 times with a new MontBlanc refill, I finally decided to use a Parker T-Ball jotter refill, which is shorter, so I had to jam a bit of paper into the end of the pen body to adjust the length. With the Ohto Rollerball pen, the refills last for months and months of trouble free writing with really nice smooth consistent ink flow and the pen itself looks great.
