uni Jetstream 4&1 Metal Edition, 0.5mm Ballpoint Pen (Black, Red, Blue, Green) and 0.5mm Mechanical Pencil, Gun Metallic (MSXE52000A05.43)

The media could not be loaded. The material is a lightweight plastic, not metal. It doesn’t have a nice, heavy weight that I’d like, but some people prefer featherweight so to each their own.As for the use of the pens, switching out different colors is very seamless and the inks write just as smoothly.Since it didn’t come with any instructions, I had to look up a few things like how to replace the pencil lead and how to dispense the pencil lead. After watching a video reviewing this pen, it showed that you have to depress the clip repeatedly in order for the pencil lead to come out.I have included a video in how to use for your reference. Enjoy!

I just got this pen and I already have to review it! It's that good. I love how fine the tip is and how rich the color is. One thing I do have to say that I'm a bit disappointed on is the body. This product markets itself as a metal edition so I expect it to have some weight, but it is just plastic with a metallic color for the body. With that being said, I don't think the price correlates with how it advertises itself. Another pro i'd like to mention that I didn't think was important was the spacing of each ink/tab area. I got another pen around the same time and the spacing between each ink/tab was poorly made, but I believe this item was thought out.

The grip is the only part that’s metal. The rest of it is plastic. Also the refills drain quickly. A lot faster than it’s BIC cousin. At first it was skipping on smoother paper but after writing for a bit on printer paper at work, it now writes on the smooth paper. All in all I’m happy with this pen. I just wish I knew the top half is all plastic.

This pen is very versatile. I am able to choose between 4 different color pen inks (black, blue, green, and red) AND a mechanical pencil with a small eraser option. The material of the pen does not feel cheap or feel like it will break easily. It is smooth and offers a larger grip which I prefer and has ridges as opposed to a rubber grip. Due to the material, the weight of the pen is heavier than those old white and blue multi color pens. It has some weight to it but isn’t too overbearing.The pen tips are fine and offer a clean thin line. The ink doesn’t bleed or smudge when writing.I’ve had this pen for almost half a year and use it a lot for work. It hasn’t run out of ink yet. I bought ink refills but haven’t had the need to replace it.The only con is that the pen is sensitive meaning when I’m writing and I accidentally touch one of the other pen click mechanisms, it can retract the pen tip that I’m currently using. It only happens once in a while but the pros of this outweighs the only problem I’ve experienced so far. It is very easy to use and the quality is exceptional for the price.

This is my new favorite pen of all. The design and comfort are remarkable, especially when writing a lot of notes at work and at school. The pen is not heavy, does not cause too much strain, and writing is way smoother, allowing me to write faster in cursive. This pen also does not bleed, and as a left-handed person myself, I will never have to worry about getting ink marks at the edge of my palm. Thinking of having this as a give away to my colleagues in the future. Highly recommend!

I'm really not happy about the plastic body. I bought this because it was specifically described as "metal".The pens and pencil are great. They work well, write really and precisely. They click well and the eraser does the job.But you can't use this as a self defense tool bear the body would break. And I expect that it will be the thing to fail first, especially with the intense use I put things though!I guess you get what you pay for.

They are almost exactly like the Pure Malt version, except these pens don't have the wood finger grips. This pen and it's campanion pens are unique. The internal pencil and eraser is what's make them unique. These pens are the ONLY pen you need to have. I won't pick up anything else to write with! BIC has made a four color ink pen for a long time. However, it looks like a toy and doesn't have a pencil built in. No self-respecting business person would get caught carrying the BIC pen. The uni Jetstream will be a pen anyone would be proud to carry and show off. One more point, it's called the "metal edition", only the finger grip is made of metal. The upper half is made of plastic! I think some of the users who gave the pen low marks are kind of "cry babies." Most didn't shop very well and paid way to much for the pen to begin with. If you paid more than $16 to $17 for the pen, you paid to much! I've purchased DOZENS of these pens AND the "sister" pen, the "Pure Malt" version for as little as $15 to $16 each! For THOSE prices the pens are a GREAT buy! They do EVERYTHING you'd expect a pen to do, has a pencil and eraser built in and it looks great in your pocket and in your hand! AND, if you leave the pen laying around, when you come back to use it again, it will be gone! See if that happens with a BIC pen or some other single feature pen! Those pens you can't give away! I give these pens to my clients, friends and certain acquaintances, along with my business card. At first they all say they've seen pens like it before, I quickly tell them, "No you haven't!" I show them the wood grip, on the Pure Malt version, the four ink colors, THEN the pencil and eraser. THEN, they admit they've never seen a pen like it before! Just like I told them to begin with! Different colors of the same pen are available from Japan's Amazon store. However, shop carefully. For some reason the shipping charges are outrageous. Sometimes 3 to 4 times the price of ONE pen. NOT a good deal. I've found some vendors charging shipping charges about equal to the price of one pen and the price of the pen is a $1 or $2 LESS than the prices I find from USA sources. So I buy 10 to 12 at a time from Japan. The shipping is typically the same if you buy one pen or 10 pens. When you average the total cost against the number of pens received, I end up paying the $15 to $16 per pen!

Like this pen a lot! Wish there was a version without the green ink so it would be a little more compact. All pens work well, pencil also works well and no issues with jamming or function. Will buy again.
