PILOT Axiom Collection Retractable Ballpoint Pen, Cherry Red Barrel, Blue Ink, Medium Point (90062)

Great pen

Pen looks good, writing with it is on par with its price. Just forget about the case, it was made of cheap plastic.

This is a classy pen at an affordable price. I have Waterman pens and the quality is no better than this. I would highly recommend as a gift or for yourself. Nice finish. One of my employees is hinting she needs one of these as a gift from me!

Here are my impressions, largely based on personal preferences. Generally, the pros outweigh the cons. Cons: - Did not come with a waxed tip, so (not knowing how long it was in possibly hot storage) I wonder how long the cartridge will last - Unnecessarily long end-cap/spring action to toggle (expose or conceal) the writing tip - A fairly boring, conservative-looking design (I'm typically drawn to more creative, modern designs.) Pros: - Ships with blue ink, the color I personally prefer - Has a nicely textured grip area (without using rubbery material, which I hate) - Weight is good, feels solid - Seems easy to open to replace cartridges - Cartridges are readily available and reasonably priced Overall: A practical, good-quality item from a major pen maker that seems like a reasonable value

I have one on black and liked it so much I bought a second one. Extremely smooth writing.

My favorite pen. Writes smoothly. Not too lightweight. Comfortable in my grasp.

This is the 2nd Axiom pen I got. Specifically requested by my Mom who loves it!

Great pen. Been using these for the past seven years.

Awesome pen
