Writes awesome though, almost as good as the all metal ones Staedtler used to make 10 years ago.

The design is amazing and the cool metal feel of the body automatically made this pencil my favorite

Got it because I don't like plastics because metal is awesome

The all metal is wonderful, but if you like a little lighter, or more of a forward weighting, then the metal action with plastic body is the solution, which they also make in this same style.

Positives for me on the r0tring 600:- nice metal feel- balanced weight that makes it comfortable to holdNegatives:- expensive- no rotating mechanism to keep

This is expected, since the tip is non-retractable metal.

Full metal body, cool dark black matte finish and red accents gives you the professional characteristics.

But the Rotring takes it a step further making this portion of the pencil knurled metal (same as the grip employs) and tops it like a cherry with its iconic red ring "logo"

It is solid metal and looks pretty intimidating on an xray scan.

I found the tip of the pencil bends way too easy and when it fell on the ground from waist level, the top metal piece dented and the paint chipped away.

Very nice, comfortable despite being all metal.

this pencil is great, it is solid metal and writes nicely

The weight is perfect, feeling more like a nice, full-metal pen than a pencil, and the weight allows me to lighten up on my pressure while still delivering a legible line

Great solid metal construction!

but I write small and love a
