Zebra Multi Function Sarasa 4＋S Black/Red/Blue/Green Ink 0.5mm Ballpoint Pen, 0.5mm Mechanical Pencil, Black Body

This is an excellent pen if you like the smoothest gel pens but want to carry a multi-pen with a pencil built in. The only drawback is that you need to change the refill pretty often, so order black refills in advance.

Great and corncern seller who reply to queries promptly. Pen design is sleek and nice. Ink quality is good too. Very smooth when writing. Highly recommended!

I've had several of these pens, but they seem to have succumbed to the same monster that steals socks in dryers. In some ways it is like a good pair of socks: it is easy to use; it does its job well everyday; good quality means I'm not frustrated when using it. This, and other type, Zebra pens have been good quality with reliable easy to use mechanisms. The inks (gel and ballpoint) apply smoothly, with good coverage. Smearing has not been a problem. The colors are very good, and Zebra has a broad range to select from. Having four pens and a pencil in one pen means the pen has to be fatter, but Zebra has done a good job in keeping it manageable. It has a rubberized surface that makes gripping the pen comfortable. There's not much room left over, so the eraser for the pencil is small, but it erases well. The little plastic cap over the eraser goes on and off easily, thought it is easy to lose. Zebra has an opportunity to make the pen even better. They could make the cap function as a stylus! Back to the good design - the pen clip is hinged, so it remains snug without being annoyingly tight; and it doesn't get slack or break off. The clip opening is high enough so that the pen doesn't ride too high in a shirt pocket. Overall the pen is pretty much perfect in it's class, and the price is reasonable. I'll keep buying this pen. (If some superior design should eventually come along, I suspect it might be made by Zebra.)

Pocket savvy…literally!!! buy it without any second thoughts.

The ink in these pens writes extremely clean! All 4 colours plus the pencil are excellent. The only reason I did not give it a 5/5 is because the ink doesn't last really long. I have ordered ten refills each for the 2 colours that I use most, so this should not be a significant impediment. (I also ordered another 6 pens, just in case!) When I find something I like, I stock up!
