Cross Mens Gentlemans At008214 Century Satin Chrome Ballpoint Slimline Gift Pen

It really is, especially for the price. It's beautiful, sleek, and sits well in the hand. The grip texture works almost flawlessly (perspiring hands tend to slip on anything, though). The nib comes out smoothly, and writes very well for a ballpoint - no smudging, for instance. I've had one of these for almost several years now, and it still works, despite being left largely untouched next to a notebook full of old stories and ideas. It worked fine throughout my GCSEs and A Levels, and the ink has never frozen/hardened up, regardless of the aforementioned neglect. The only downside is that those with larger hands might have some trouble gripping it, and even those who don't may experience higher levels of cramp than normal. Other than that, there's really nothing wrong with this, at least from my experience.

I've always had a thing for pens - ever since I got a set of Parker pens for my 11th birthday. This Cross is just beautiful! It writes smoothly and evenly with no scratching etc. on the paper. The machining on the barrel is clean & sharply done - and works superbly as a "grip" area on what is otherwise a slim, sleek piece of carefully crafted metal ............ yes, I'm an engineer, I work for an aerospace/defence CNC machining company and I'm the only person I know who would get "that" worked up about a pen!! I already own a "wide barrel" Cross ballpoint and this one makes a perfect partner. In my opinion, this pen is worth every single penny!

Very capable metal bodied ball-pen for those who like a slim design.

This is a nice sleek and stylish pen. I'm not a fan of big chunky pens so this was a good alternative to them. It writes well and fits snuggly in the hand. Not cheap though!

Bought my eldest daughter the gold cross pen now bought my youngest a silver cross i think the presentation box and quality and price is amazing and a lovely keep sake forever,very happy.

I keep this in my handbag and get lots of comments when I use it. It writes very smoothly, is easy to hold and looks stylish. Might be a bit small in large or masculine hands but just right for my small mitts

Top quality pen, it is a ballpoint i.e. not free flowing ink however that was what I wanted. I was in need of a good quality pen for work that would be cheap to buy replacements ink for and hopefully last for years, Looks more expensive that it is. No regrets, so pleased I purchased a real treat. Also comes in a very smart presentation box so would be great for a gift.

Always use Cross pens, this one was great value and the cartridges last for ages. The shiney silver pens are a bit slippy when writing but the matt finish and etched grip make this perfect.

Stylo fin, élégant, et surtout précis, j'entends par la que là mine ne bouge pas dans le corps du stylo, ce qui rend l'utilisation du stylo très agréable.

Excellent in looks, very sleek pen. Pen has black medium nib, writes smooth. For big hands, it might be a bit slim.

Good presentation and support day to day function

Quando frequentavo la scuola, ne avevo una con l’indicazione del paese di fabbricazione: Made in USA.

Poco que comentar, la calidad Cross insuperable, siempre he utilizado bolígrafos y lapiceros Cross. Sobre todo, varios modelos de bolígrafos. Aunque también he usado Parker. Pero me siento más comodo con Cross. Es más ahora regresé al modelo clásico de Cross que empecé a utilizar hace muchos años. Amazon prefecto
