## Questions & Answers

**Q: Hi, Can you get refills for these ? if so where ? thank you.**
A: Yes you can get them from Amazon, call up the pen and black refills will appear next to it

**Q: How do I open the pen to replace the refill in please ?**
A: Hi. The secret is knowing the refill is a pushfit. Unscrew and remove the cap at the lower end of the pen to reveal the end of the refill. Grasp this firmly and pull. This will probably need more force than you first expected, but it will slide out. Now just push in the new refill and replace the cap.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Top quality.

Great China graph pencil

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A nifty pen for the money

A comfortable pen which writes nicely. A great colour which gives a funky appearance. Nifty that you can write upside down and on wet paper. I bought this after a recommendation and glad that I did.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Compact, stylish, well built but expensive to run.
*by R***. on 10 August 2025*

I love these pens but they're not cheap to run. The refills are very short and don't last very long. I love them because they are short and comfortable in the hand. Short helps because I use a weatherproof clipboard which has a clear plastic cover which is hinged at the top so space inside is tightest at the top and gets better as you get lower. These pens pressurise the ink refill by the action of clicking the end of the pen which also retracts and puts the nib out for use. If you write a lot you sometimes find it starts to fade out because it's lost pressure. So you then have to click a few times. Great for a fidget. Another reason I love them, a great big clip with a lot of depth adjustment so it's very easy to clip to boards, clothing, wads of paper etc. My fav is the transparent one but I lost it. I then bought several all black ones because they were half price. I also bought a bright yellow one to stand out more but it's rubberised feel is great to hold but gets dirty easily. I use my hands a lot at work and they get grubby. My pen is now very grubby too. The photo showing the refill is a used one. A new one would have ink almost to the small white swab near the back. This ink is not as black as some other makes but the line is nice and fine and works a lot better than the average biro on damp or greasy paper. Being pressurised too means being able to write easily vertically or upside down. We'll built and designed, has a small lanyard hole too. Only negative on build quality is the nib cap. Easily unscrews to change ink refill but the thread is tiny and you could easily cross-thread and damage it. You'll pay at least £5 for three refills so bear that in mind. You could buy a lot of pens with far bigger refills for that. Well done if you got to the end. 😉
