OLIGHT O'Pen Mini 2 Ballpoint Pen, Switch between Replaceable Black Ink and Alloy-Enhanced Pencil by Reverse S-Shaped Bolt-Action for Everyday Carry, Office Use, Outdoor Work(Black)

I carry this pen as my EDC in a small EDC pouch I use as a wallet. I really like it! I think it looks really smart in the green colour with the cutouts. The bolt action is satisfying to use and although the pencil takes a little bit of practice to get out without looking it all feels very nice. With the size of my hands personally, I have to think about holding the nib away from my hand while using the bolt action to get out the pen nib otherwise it draws on my hand, but the action itself is very satisfying with the spring loaded mechanism.The writing experience is really fantastic. Even with larger hands I am still able to use this pen as normal: it sits both in my thumb and forefingers at the nib, and the fleshy bit between my thumb and first finger nicely: a shorter pen would be unsupported at the end which wouldn't feel great. The refills it comes with from O'Light write really smoothly and nicely, with a really attractive line of ink left. I always preferred writing with fountain pens but this is by far the best ballpoint I've ever used. I also like that it uses standard refills and they are tiny (I carry one within my EDC pouch for when it runs out with essentially no weight or size penalty). I can't comment too much on the longevity as I'm still on my original refill but I've written a few words with it every day for a month or two: obviously wouldn't last so long with regular essay writing.The pencil is valuable but less perfect. I only used it for a few pages in my notebook before it shattered and I do not think I pressed too hard or anything. The line is faint (perhaps not as faint as a true "everlasting" pencil) but relatively crisp. I'm not sure if it gets blunter over time and therefore less crisp, as mine shattered: perhaps shipping damage? A single refill is provided in the box but otherwise you need proprietary refills from O'Light. This is a bit of a downside and the biggest downside for me however I have not knocked a star off as I feel this isn't too bad as they shouldn't be required too often, and when I ordered the refills (from their website only, not Amazon) I was able to get a small keychain torch for free, so if this sort of value continues when ordering refills it's not so bad.

I think it is very well designed. It is just the right size in the hand and it is also very light weight. This makes it a comfortable pen to use throughout the day.I found the pen writes smoothly and consistently. The pencil is very usable and clear to see on the page. It is also quite durable, which means you won't be constantly replacing it.The thing I love most about the pen is the satisfying bolt action. I find myself using it like a little fidget toy when I'm not writing.The pen comes with 2 pencil tip replacements included.Overall, this pen is great value and I am likely going to get an additional one.

I recently purchased the pen as a backup I normally use a fountain pen due to arthritis in both hands. What a great little pen to carry in a notebook the only thing I would say wouldn’t be a good buy if you have larger hands I wear a large glove and this is just on the line as far as size is. The pencil is a great choice xtra as well

Excellent pen with a really beautiful build and the perfect size for EDC. It was a surprise when the pencil came out the top, however given the girth of the pencil, it’s an excellent choice and means no compromise compared to trying to have them come down out the same aperture. The metal body feels really nice and I purchased this as a present which worked well as it was packaged with a premium feel and was a unique talking point thereafter. Great price for the quality

The OLIGHT O'Pen Mini 2 is easily one of the best EDC pens I’ve owned. It’s compact, incredibly well-built, and the aluminum alloy body feels solid without being heavy. The bolt-action mechanism is smooth and satisfying to use, and the ink flows cleanly with no smudging or skips.I actually lost my first one and didn’t hesitate to buy another—that’s how much I liked it. It's perfect for work, pockets, or clipped to a notepad, and it looks sharp too. Great everyday pen with a tactical edge. Highly recommended.

Great compact pen for notebooks etc, the pencil is great for quick sketching for notes too.

We've all seen this pen on social media right? It can't only be me that searched Amazon immediately after seeing it right?Small, well built and an all round awesome pen. Writes fluid without smudging, I also find myself using the pencil aspect quite frequently for diagrams at work.It's also a great fidget.

Great small pen, good to write with despite small size. Very nice, quality pen!
