However the plastic broke after a couple of days of use.

The plastic cracks where one piece of the pen screws in to the other piece, so the back shoots off the pen while you're using it

The ink itself is great, but the pen barrel is made of cheap plastic and breaks easily

The plastic around the threads is not sturdy and will fracture which leaves you with a projectile weapon shooting needle point cartridges

Great writing pens, horrible cheap plastic barrel that cracks and randomly shoots the metal end off

but the plastic so incredibly cheap

Have always loved these pens but now they are made of cheap plastic and the barrel cracks within just a few days of use.

These pens from Amazon seem to be made of much cheaper, flimsy plastic.

The barrel is a cheaper plastic that doesn't last long, but it's a small price to pay for such a great pen.

I believe this is due to a weakness in the pen's design in the hard plastic where the pen attaches to the grip, at the little strip of silver around the pen with the company "Pentel" name printed there

The pen feels very flimsy, like the plastic might break at any moment.

Probably won't be buying any more of these due to the plastic cracking issue
