I've only had this pencil..., April 14, 2011
I've only had this pencil for a few days,
but I am already absolutely in love with it!
At fifteen dollars, and perhaps having a previous reviewer's comment in mind,
I thought this pencil would look and feel cheap in person.
However, what I experienced is that the pencil feels great
and vastly more expensive than the asking price.
Moreover, I think it has plenty of weight to it.
I must admit that when I received it, I kept checking the label disbelievingly
to see if they sent me the 600 or 800 by mistake because the material feels like
metal.
In terms of design, the rotring series is unparalleled.

For being the little..., February 4, 2011
For being the little brother to the Rotring 600, this pencil leaves nothing to
be desired. Everything is identical with the exception of the weight, and even
still it's not a huge difference. The pencil gives off this aura of fine german
engineering, it's just plastic instead of metal. They may have used a cheaper
material but they didn't skimp on the fitting. No rattling, no bending, 100%
solid feel while writing. And I just love the very visible tip of the Rotrings.
This is probably one of the best pencils available in terms of quality and
engineering.

This is a fantastic value...., January 14, 2012
This is a fantastic value. I have the Rotring 600, and I actually prefer the
500. It is lighter, yes, but I find the plastic barrel more comfortable in the
hand. This is a solid pencil and I highly recommend it.

I bought this pen on a recommendation and I must say the more I use it the more
I am pleased with this purchase. It sits well in the hand, consistently draws
and writes well on all surfaces and is weighted well for long writing and/or
drawing sessions.
If it came in another colour, I'd buy another.
