600 3-in-1 Multicolor Pen and Mechanical Pencil, Switches Between 2 Ballpoint Pen Fine Point Tips (Black and Red Ink) and 1 Mechanical Pencil Tip (0.5mm Lead), Black Barrel

rOtring Multi-Pen, SILVER, 600, 3-in-1, is an excellent ‘multi-pen’ writing instrument. I am one, who’s been a fan of ‘multi-pens’ well over 35 years - Which began in the 80's and my first rOtring and Staedtler purchases (and still have both). This ’600 3-in-1', was purchased back in early 2022, and to date has performed flawlessly... Even being somewhat ‘abused’ by a 3 and 8 yr old Grandsons... And still no issues. The pen is well made - constructed with quality materials - nicely finished - well-balanced for writing & drawing (although abit heavier then other pens) - And comfortable in use. (This from a 70+ yr old guy, with some arthritis and double CMC surgeries, too) Your ink/lead selection is pretty straight forward and presents no issues, and is solid; Simply rotate the pen’s knurled cap - Easy. (Do note - This model has no eraser, as most ‘trio’ pens have) Regarding the ink ‘refill’, the ‘600' using standard “D-1" mini ink cartridges; readily available either here at Amazon or other internet sources. rOtring’s ink is fine, but I prefer a more permanent oil-ink, to their’s. And your leads are standard .05mm, also easily purchased. The rOtring is a great multi-pen - True, it is abit spendy (shop around and you can find it for under $35.00) compared to other’s out there. But, will you ever wear it out; very doubtful, you will - My 22 yr old Granddaughter uses an early version, of one of my rOtring “Trio Pen’s”; used it through college and now uses it her workplace and absolutely loves it... Go figure. Simply put, they are well built pens. If you are looking for a decent - well-built ‘multi-pen’, which writes well and is comfortable, you might want to consider the “600 3-in-1", by rOtring. It is food-for-thought. I know, I like mine. A guy, whom always has a pen -

Magnificent. It's heavy, the knurled texture feels really good, and I enjoy writing with it. This thing is a tank.

Love the pen! I love switching between the 3 color options because I need differentiation in my work and journaling. Sturdy and comfortable.

The body feels my favorite mechanical pencils. As just a pencil it feels like a very good body with a third rate mechanism. which, when I look inside the pen, I can see why the pencil lead mechanism is not as robust as a dedicated pencil. I am comparing this multi directly with a Lamy 2000 Multipen (four colors of ink, no pencil). I like the Rotring better, which is a problem. I had made up my mind, sight-unseen, that the Lamy was the pen for me. I'm in middle of a research project and I will be traveling at the end of the month. I wanted a no fuss multipen and this is my third try (after my old favorite Pilot hi-tec-c Coleto 1000 and the Lamy). IDK why but the Rotring 600 3-in-1 just does it for me. I start using it and then forget I'm using it. I'm not tempted to fiddle with the pen, think about refills, compare it with other pens, etc. Refills: I like Uni Jetstream 0.7mm in blue and red. I make most of my notes using the pencil and use the colors the way I mostly always have. I used to use green for dates but red can double on that now. I realize now that I didn't use green much. The lead that comes in the pencil is really good. I need to find out what it is. No way is it the usual HB that comes in most mechanical pencils. I have been using Pilot Neox 4B, which is very black. The stock lead can go nearly as dark with a little convincing, but it can go MUCH lighter than the Neox 4B. Point being, I can get a lot of line variation with just the pencil, which IMO is the best kind of formatting for notes. My #1 favorite is a vintage fountain pen with a flex nib, but I'm done traveling with any fountain pen. It's just not worth the futzing. Anyway, this my favorite multipen type writer. I'm not sure why I don't bond more with my Coleto; I would rate it higher by every criterion except looks - I even like the bigger barrel and the lighter weight. But I just feel distracted using that pen. WIth the Rotring I am still aware of myself using the mech to change colors - and it does draw my eye still, though that seems to be fading. I assume that eventually it will dissolve completely into the background and just work invisibly.

It feels so heavy and durable, I love it.

Big Rotring fan. This is a very useful pan to have, in spite of my major use of of keyboards and voice transcription in this day and age. When I actually do need a pen, having the extra color for highlighting documents is incredibly useful.

Awesome combo pencil, red and black pen. All in one writing tool. Very comfortable and with a twist your going from pen to pencil or red pen. Very comfortable to use with the burled grip. Highly recommend.

Amazing pen

Un artículo estupendo. Rotring no defrauda, al menos de momento. Si la persona que buscaba reemplazo de las minas azules o cualquier otra interesada, si no encuentra minas originales, hay una de Schneider, Mine 56, ref 77200, que van perfectas. Las encuentras aquí también.

Rotring 600 3 in 1 kalemin uçlarını seçmek için kımızı halkanın bulunduğu tırtıklı bölümü sağa yada sola döndürmek gerekiyor, yine kalemlerin içlerini değiştirmek yada kurşun kaleme uç eklemek için bu tırtıklı bölüm sıkıca tutulup doğrusal hareketle çekince kalemin içi çıkıyor. Alışılagelinen kalemin ucunun yada orta kısmının döndürülerek kalemin içinin açıldığı bir model değil, kalemin dışı tamamen tek parça, iç ve dış aksamları metalden oluşuyor. Kurşun kalem seçilip kullanılırken ucu uzatmak için diğer versatillerde olduğu gibi kalemin üstündeki tıklama butonu kullanılıyor, ancak tükenmezlerde bu bölüm aktif değil. Kalemlerin seçiminde çevirirken hissedilen tık sesi ve kalemin uyguladığı minik kuvvet, kalemin sağlamlığı yönünde güven hissi oluşturuyor. Seçilen kalem uçları herhangi bir şekilde oynamıyor, gayet sağlam şekilde duruyor, örneğin klasik tek uçlu Rotring 600 versatil ile Rotring 3 in 1 versatil ucunun stabilitesi açısından bir fark hissetmedim, oldukça sabit duruyor. Kalemin klasik Rotring 600'lere göre hafif kalın yapısı elimin ergonomisi açısından çok daha iyi oldu, herkezin el yapısına göre tecrübesi farklı olabilir. Kalem kutudan, üzerinde kırmızı tükenmez, siyah tükenmez ve kurşun kalem takılı olarak çıkıyor. Ancak kalemin kutusu içindeki kartonun arkasında monteli bir adette mavi tükenmez yedek uç istendiğinde diğer renklerle değiştirilerek kullanılması için hazır bulunuyor. Kalemi beğenerek kullanıyorum.

"Fidèle à l'héritage de la série 600, ce modèle 3-en-1 est un chef-d'œuvre d'ingénierie mécanique. Il remplace avantageusement trois outils distincts sans sacrifier la sensation de solidité propre à la marque. Points techniques remarquables : Construction 'Full Metal' : Le corps en laiton offre un poids parfaitement équilibré. L'inertie en main est excellente, permettant un contrôle total du tracé. Mécanisme de sélection rotatif : La rotation de la bague moletée est fluide et précise. Contrairement aux mécanismes à gravité, celui-ci est fiable et ne présente aucun jeu parasite à l'utilisation. Ergonomie iconique : Le grip moleté caractéristique offre une adhérence parfaite. Le corps hexagonal empêche l'outil de rouler sur les tables inclinées ou les plateaux de tournage. Polyvalence : Passer du stylo (noir/rouge) au porte-mine 0,5 mm en un quart de tour est un gain de temps considérable pour l'annotation de plans ou la prise de notes rapides. Verdict : C'est un instrument professionnel sérieux, robuste et esthétiquement irréprochable. Pour ceux qui exigent la rigueur d'un instrument de mesure dans un stylo du quotidien."

I wish Uni made a 3-in-1 version of the Kuru Toga, but the Rotring 600 3-in-1 is the next best thing. It has that very reassuring weight and heft like a Rotring pencil should, a slight rattle can be heard from the cartridges if you knock it about but nothing to worry about. The mechanism is held in place with a friction fit, which is a little bit of a worry long term. Already I've had to squeeze/ovalise the internal silver portion that keeps the mechanism in the body, to increase the friction and ensure it doesn't start pushing itself apart if you are particularly heavy with the pen. The two pen slots take standard D1 cartridge refills so you can swap the supplied cartridges (red and black were in the pen, and a blue cartridge was supplied in the box). The Rotring pen cartridges are good quality, much better than the green D1 cartridges I also bought.
