Cross Edge Matte Black Lacquer Gel Rollerball Pen, Medium Point, Black Ink | Elegant Accessory for Smooth Writing, Capless Slide-Open and Snap-Shut Design, Ergonomic Shape, Comfortable Grip, Gift-Ready

I've been buying, using and gifting Cross pens since1960. This Cross Edge Rollerball gel pen did not disappoint on any level. Function, appearance and quality are 5-Star; your hand will love the grip, feel, and weight of it. Color options are many. And all are beautiful. Refills for this pen are long lasting, and your writing will never look better.

This is the only pen I use, and the only pen I buy as gifts. Most other reviews cover almost all the positives, there is one feature this pen has that not only don't other people mention, but isn't in the description or advertisement by Cross here on Amazon. Namely, that the pocket clip is spring/hinged loaded, and by pushing on the top part of the clip, the bottom opens up almost like an alligator clip. This means that it's beyond easy to secure it in a pocket, organizer, or like I do, in between the buttons of my button down shirt.I've left this pen at home by accident from time to time, and have used another Cross pen that day (one that doesn't have this clip), or other "nice" pens, and it's then that I realized how much I just have to have that hinged pocket clip. It's a game changer, ESPECIALLY if you're someone who uses his pen a lot at intervals throughout the day, and find yourself putting it away for a few minutes before needing it againI can't believe more high end pens don't do this, or that Cross hasn't incorporated this into other pens in their line.As far as the pen itself, it's been covered pretty well by others. It writes great, it is customizable with ink and tip, and it looks fantastic.Pro tip though. If you get this pen and hand it to someone else to use while it's closed, I guarantee that person will twist the hell out of it trying to open it not realizing it's a pull open pen. The pen has held up under multiple people doing this, including a few times they really tried cranking on it, but continuous "abuse" like this will loosen up the open mechanism a bit, making it a little shaky and not as solid.Side note....this pen is on the medium/large size, which is perfect for me as I have big hands and long fingers, but I could see this being a bit large to hold comfortably for those with smaller hands.All in all, this is the best pen I've ever used

The Cross Edge Gel Ink Pen is where modern style meets smooth, high-performance writing. Its unique slide-open mechanism sets it apart—one fluid motion, and you’re ready to write. It’s satisfying, stylish, and just plain cool.What really stands out is the gel ink. It glides across the page with rich, consistent lines that don’t skip or smear. Whether you're jotting down notes or signing something important, it feels smooth and effortless every time. The ink dries quickly, making it great for left-handed users too.The build quality is what you'd expect from Cross: solid, weighty, and balanced in the hand. It has just enough heft to feel premium without being bulky. Plus, the soft-touch grip ensures comfort even during longer writing sessions.If you're looking for a pen that combines performance with a bold, futuristic design, the Cross Edge is a fantastic choice. It’s not just a pen—it’s a statement.

Returned it was an ok pen but pricy.

Was impressed with the reviews and ordered one. Looks and feels like a much pricier product, this is no cheap Cross. It's finish, shiny metal parts, the weight, moving parts, etc is simply first class. It feels like a pen designed by Audi for customers of its cars! Writes brilliantly, the ink flow and smoothness is right up there with the best. It does however have a peculiar aberration, I'm not sure if I should call it a problem. The pen has been designed so that the pen's pocket clip latches on to the breast pocket (mens shirt) with a good one and a half inches of the pen protruding out of the top of the pocket. It looks strange and disrupts the smooth flow of a work shirt, not really the sort of thing for an executive or management level staff. But women and men who carry the pen in a bag or who wear a jacket to work may have no issue with that. Still, for me, that takes away one star.I find it strange that no one has written of this before and I will try to upload pictures with the Cross and my regular Sheaffer pen in my pocket.The opening and closing mechanism, while unusual, is very intuitive and I've became accustomed to it. It was initially tight, but has now loosened up, yet it takes a bit more effort to get the tip fully extended. Still, once extended, the tip stays true and doesn't collapse on writing no matter what the pressure.All in all, a keeper.

Very smooth, effortless writing. Feels great in my hand. Excellent tip retract-action. .

Love this pen and the opening slid is great.

I am weird about pens. Like, to an embarrassing degree. I like a nice pen. I will die on the hill that having a good, quality pen is important. One of my earliest "fancy" pens was a Cross pen I received as a 10th birthday present. I still think about that pen. So, I wanted to relive some of that joy with this pen. I used an Amazon GC to help me buy the pen. It's beautiful. The color is as striking in real life as it is online. The weight and girth are perfect for journaling. The ink is smooth and doesn't smudge. I am probably going to buy another one of these, but in a different barrel color. I hope this one lasts, as I have seen a couple of reviews where a person's pen broke. Fingers crossed that doesn't happen to mine. If you are also weird about pens, you should get this pen.

Ürün kutusu, kalitesi çok iyi. Teslim süresi oldukça iyi.

Der Cross Edge Rollerball ist ein wirklich schönes Schreibgerät, das durch seine dickere Form besser in der Hand liegt als die meisten anderen Stifte.Besonders hervorzuheben ist der innovative Ausfahrmechanismus: Man zieht an der oberen Hälfte des Stiftes, damit die Mine herauskommt, und drückt sie wieder zurück, um sie einzufahren. Dieses ungewöhnliche System ist nicht nur praktisch, sondern macht auch Spaß.Die Tinte ist dokumentenecht, und durch die Gelmine ist das Schreiben mit weniger Druck leichter und angenehmer. Die Qualität überzeugt auf ganzer Linie, und es macht Spaß, ihn zu benutzen. Ich habe mittlerweile fünf dieser Stifte gekauft, und alle Familienmitglieder, die einen bekommen haben, nutzen sie sehr gerne.Einziger Wermutstropfen:Blaue und schwarze Minen sind problemlos erhältlich, aber die angeblich verfügbaren roten und lila Minen sind leider nirgends lieferbar.Fazit: Dieser Stift ist definitiv die volle Punktzahl wert. Er ist nicht nur ein Hingucker, sondern auch ein sehr funktionales und hochwertiges Schreibgerät, das ich uneingeschränkt empfehlen kann.

Excellent ball point pen with signature Cross durability and quality. I would definitely recommend it for anyone looking for excellent value for money in a pen of high quality and looks to impress.

プレゼント用に購入しましたが、送り先の方からも重宝されていると聞いております。

Cross - my Nana bought me my first one aged 13 when I started secondary school. I'm 58 and I still buy Cross. My daughter just started University and I bought her her first Cross which she loves. This one is good but a little too thick for writing for long periods. I work in a hospital and have to write notes. The gel flows but I find myself needing to re adjust my hold often. This is a plastic body so different to the original metal. An elegant pen.
