military adviser to the Afghan Army. So far, I am thoroughly impressed with the
solid construction quality and ease of use. I love the smooth operation of the
twist and can feel when it is in place. It came with no instructions on how to
set it up, but only took me about 2 minutes to figure it out. I store it in my
blouse and just set it between the pen and pen options to avoid ink spots or
damage. I love the ultra-thin ink and pencil options. Additionally, the black
ink I purchased has lasted a satisfactory time and I have yet to have to replace
it. I did run out of the pencil lead, but was able to easily manually load the
lead from a refill I got from JetPen. My pens run out of ink rather then loosing
them. So I imagine with the quality of the pen, I shoudl have it for a long
time. *Wish the clip wasn't made of plastic either, but I am being cautious with
it nonetheless. I love the color as well. JetPen got my pen to me in Afghanistan
about nine days after I placed the order. That is impressive. Highly
recommended.

I have a PILE (10+) of multi-pens, and this one takes the prize. It's not too
fat (most are), there is an array of colors for the pens (the Bordeaux is very
yummy) and for pencil lead sizes. It's solid - like a good tool should be. The
pens don't rattle when you shake it, all that you hear is the pencil lead
moving. The surface is smooth, but not slick. If you're one of those who rotate
your pens and pencils between phrases, this one is really nice, as it rotates
without getting unbalanced, and has a nice hefty, solid feel that lands in the
right spot after the rotation. I got the Khaki hoping it would be more brown
than green, but it is mostly a green color. I would recommend this to anyone who
wants a mult-ipen but is tired of the usual too-fat plastic pens.

This review is from Zebra Sharbo X LT3 Pen Body Component - Silver
To add to my previous review. I recently discovered that the grips from the
cheap Bic mechanical pencils fit this pen perfectly, and don't look too out of
place, which adds to the comfort greatly, in my opinion, making this an even
better pen. Also, and far more importantly, the Pilot Hi-Tec Slims refills (in
0.3mm and 0.4mm) fit all Sharbo pens, and they write BEAUTIFULLY, better than
Hi-Tec pens or Coleto pens. Not only is this the best multi-pen in my opinion,
but arguably the best pen, period.

This review is from Zebra Sharbo X LT3 Pen Body Component - Silver
Got this pen today, had the ST3 in silver prior to this, and am liking it alot
more than the ST3. The build quality is much better, metal threading, smoother
changing of inks, etc. If looking at a Sharbo, I highly recommend the LT3 body,
perfect size for my taste and better quality than ST3. The ink was another
concern of mine, but been using the same black ink for a couple weeks now and it
isn't showing signs of giving out. I use the pen daily, albeit not as much as
when I was in school, but still gets used daily. The pen is well worth it in my
opinion, if you're looking for a good multi pen, I don't think you can beat
these.

This review is from Zebra Sharbo X LT3 Pen Body Component - Gray
Hands down THE BEST multi pen out there. If you have some money burning a hole
in your pocket, GET THIS PEN!!!
Only negative is the price. Refills tend to go quickly during periods of
sustained writing (like making study notes for final exams...) but ink quality
it top notch. I absolutely love this pen - and so did the jerk-off who took it
of my table when I went to the bathroom....
