Pilot Dr. Grip 4+1, 4 Color 0.7 mm Ballpoint Multi Pen & 0.5 mm Mechanical Pencil - Black Body (BKHDF1SFN-B)

An excellent pen, if you only want to carry one pen this will do it all. I like the pencil and rubber for crosswords and the Pilot ballpoints rank with the best writing first time with no smudges

Great

The pens writes beautifully but it broke within a month for me. the clip that activates the pencil mechanism is the weak point.

The Pilot Dr. Grip 4+1 Multi Pen is hands-down one of the best writing instruments I’ve ever used. It perfectly combines practicality, comfort, and quality in one sleek design. The four ballpoint ink colors (black, blue, red, and green) glide smoothly with no skipping or blotting, and the built-in 0.5 mm mechanical pencil is a brilliant touch for quick notes or precision work. Switching between colors and pencil mode is effortless — just a click and you’re ready to go. The Dr. Grip barrel truly lives up to its reputation for comfort. It has a well-balanced, slightly weighted feel that reduces hand fatigue during long writing or note-taking sessions. The black body gives it a professional, understated look that fits right in at the office or in a classroom. I also love how refillable and sustainable it is — you can replace each ink cartridge and even the pencil lead, making it a long-term investment rather than a disposable pen. If you’re someone who writes often and values convenience without compromising on performance, the Pilot Dr. Grip 4+1 is worth every penny.

Good

I was looking for a pen that had enough colors to prove useful at my engineering job. I currently work in Aerospace across various projects, which often involves me having to write down various multi-faceted notes. I had fallen in love with the Pilot G2 0.7, 0.5, and 0.3mm pens, and I used them extensively during my years in college as they are amazing for note taking, sketching, etc. When I first got them, I was surprised just how smooth, reliable, and easy they were to use, and I immediately bought as big of a box as I could for each of those sizes. After trying this pen, I feel like I cannot to back to any other form of writing ever again. The action of this pen is incredibly flawless and smooth. Literally, my first reaction to trying out this pen was "WOW oh my god!!!". The best part is, while all 4 colored ink pens are incredibly smooth-feeling, the lead pencil is also, somehow, just as (if not even more) smooth as the rest! I have never had a mechanical pencil write as if it were a high-tolerance ballpoint... Just wow! An amazing pen and definitely a MUST HAVE!
