Rotring Tikky 3-in-1 Mechanical Pencil/Ballpoint Pen/Highlighting Pen, 0.7 mm, White Barrel - Blue and Red Ink

I am now on my 3rd or 4th one of these. Obviously would not keep buying them if they were not good. They are well made and last well considering they are cheaper than the other nice alternatives.You can expect that eventually the small rubber cover for the retraction button will wear. I have also found the nib for the pencil eventually starts working loose and needs to be done up as tight as possible.Otherwise it is 2 pens and a pencil in one, it is effective, well made, nice to hold, not too heavy and writes on paper. What more do you need. I have not found a cheaper and as well made equivalent even after 10 years of using.

I have used Rotting products for many years, so when I saw this I thought it would be value for money as usual. Yes, it works well, and is comfortable in use. However, I have had this since the beginning of December, and already it is cracked by the red ring on the barrel. This is NOT what I have come to expect from this company. Why oh why did they not make it with a metal barrel? I would gladly have paid any increased cost if they had. Now it held together with sellotape, which takes away any pleasure in using it.

I do love a gadget and I do love quality design, and here Rotring has produced one of my all time favourite pens. I have always used Rotring for their calligraphy pens and fine art pens. I love their mechanical pencils too. Rotring have always had a reputation for classy engineering and reliability. In this Tikky 3, you have all of these traits in abundance. 3 in 1 pen! The most practical solution I have ever come across. I use black for main written notes and highlight with red when i am marking. I also use a pencil for writing in text books and on music. The ingenious engineering design is so impressive. I have some of the best pens by some of the most renown brands, but my everyday go to pen is this Tikky 3. I loved it so much I bought my kids and wife one too!

I had to research on YouTube but a couple of searches later I had solved the mystery of the puzzle pen , the instructions are hidden on the packaging and not clear unless you have microscopic vision :) fantastic pen and great value for money

Ok but not quite as good as expected

I really like this - very comfortable to write with : both to hold and the flow of ink.I bought some blue refills as i don't use red, and changed the red refill to blue. I'm frequently needing to use both, so this does the job - great

I had tried to locate this pen for several months so was delighted to find it on Amazon. The first concern was that I couldn't find out out how to switch through the 3 functions. The supplied information made no sense at all. Then I found that after the lead wore down I could find no way to replace it. The pen was cast aside, unused until fairly recently. Tried again, unable to select another function, the pencil function totally useless, the selection process (clicking on the button at the end of the pen) did nothing and the refused to move when depressed. I am telling this sorry story as a warning to anyone who thinks they might like to own such a veratile tool,

This pen is slightly magical, it comes without any instructions on how to use it. "Instructions for a pen?" you ask incredulously. It takes a little working out how to get the writing implement you require. I wont spoil the fun though, once you work it out you'll have hours of fun watching your friends exasperate themselves trying to find the secret. (Well I did anyway)Incidently this is a great multi function pen/pencil and I would definitely recommend to others, I have but one gripe and that is with the eraser. The eraser can only be used by removing a metal cover on the top of the pen, unfortunately when you have the pencil deployed you cannot remove the metal cover, so you have to retract the pencil, pull the top off of the eraser and erase away. I have tried using the pencil without the eraser cover on, but found it difficult to extend further lead when needed. Bit of a design flaw from an otherwise excellent pen. Which is why it only gets 4 stars instead of 5.

I am a Practicing Architect, and as a professional, I would recommend this product highly. Also to add the delivery and packaging of the product were great.

voldoet aan de vewachting van het produckt.

Realmente es un producto bien pensado ya que dispone de las 3 opciones más utilizadas: bolígrafo negro, rojo y lápiz. Además añade una pequeña goma en el cabezal. Cuesta un poco saber cómo hacer salir la mina que quieres, la verdad. Muchas veces hay que repetir el proceso hasta que logras dar con el truco.

ティッキーシャープペンシルのテイストを継承し、3in1が欲しかったファンにはぴったりのペンです。難点は、ペンの色やボールペンからシャープペンに変えるときに押すボタンが少し押しにくい。デザイン上、ボタンの上にラバーで覆われているので、ボタンを押すのに少し指に力がいるのと、上からきちっと押さないとボタンが押すことができない。もう少し、楽にボタンを押すことができれば、最高なのですが、残念です。

Very good and essential product for anyone who uses a pencil and pen with 2 color ink. Refills are easily available in any city market. You have to get used to the selection mechanism otherwise you may get a red refill out while you selected the black one. Very rugged and solidly built.
