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.

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.

Pen is really well made and writes as well as other Sarasa 0.4mm pens from Zebra, if not better. The ink does last longer than I thought it would, been using the same black ink for a couple weeks now, used daily although not real heavy note taking at my work, and still working fine. Only note I can make is that the bottom piece, the part that unscrews, is a slightly different shade of grey, which kind of bothers me, and the threading is plastic. Overall a good pen, but if looking at a Sharbo, the LT3 is FAR better than this in my opinion, just got my LT3 in silver today and it's much better made.
