Retro 51 Tornado™ Stealth - Black Rollerball

Absolutely love this pen. If you are picky about your pens this is the one for you. Comes in so many color options, I plan on buying my wife, son, & daughter in-law one each for their upcoming birthdays. The pen writes very nicely and evenly.

Writes smooth. Fits in hand nicely. Doesn't come open in pocket, no worries of leaking.

For me, this pen has the perfect weight/balance. Really like how the ink flows smoothly. I liked the pen so much, that I bought a different model and it works just as beautifully.

I absolutely adore this pen. I use it frequently throughout my day, and have no complaints. The ink is awesome, and very bold. The weight is on the heavy side, which I prefer. I bought this pen a second time to replace my first one, only because I lost it and spent like 3 weeks until I got tired of missing it.Absolutely recommend it, I would definitely go with one of the normal models that are on the lower end; unless you want to spend the extra amount for uniqueness.

Many colors of pens, can buy ink pen refills. They are great pens. I've gifted many pens to my family and friends. Some pens are more expensive than others depending on the outside of the pen. The ink inside of the pens and refill ink is all the same. The outside of the pens are different prices based on how the outside looks, how long the pen has been sold, etc. etc.

The black finish wore off after around a month of pocket carry. I didn't realize it is a twist pen until I got it. I got used to the twist-action easily though. The large textured knob makes it easy to deploy. It has a nice weight to it. The clip works very smoothly with any clothing. It doesn't snag but it holds the pen in place well. It would be perfect if the grip section was thicker and the coating more durable.

If you are looking for a nice light edc pen and prefer a rollerball, look no further, stop reading this review and hit that order button. This pen is so sleek and light, you will forget that you have it in your pocket. This carries very nicely and the pocket clip is nice and sturdy. I thought that I would not like the twist deployment of the pen, but that knurling on the knob is nice and smooth and the texture is not overly aggressive. I have carried it several times now and it is holding up pretty nicely.

I am a huge fan of the Retro 1951 brand of pens due to their classic look and feel coupled with their elegance and large catalog of color options and designs. These pens make this a very suitable gift option as well as personal use. Also I have discovered there are three refill options available first with the original Schmidt refills but the Parker standard pen refills and Fisher space pen refills also work with these pens.Buy one today and you will not regret the purchase.
