Made in Japan, OHTO’s Dude rollerball pen features an aluminum barrel with a stainless steel pocket clip, chrome-plated brass fittings, and a plastic grip. And while the barrel is hexagonal, it tapers into a cylinder near the end, allowing the cap to be firmly posted Read More
I haven't tried the "Dude" yet, but I have tried the "Words." Both are sold at my local shop for $19.99/ea and $23.99/ea respectively. This groupbuy is an example of a hidden gem on MassDrop.
Well I just received mine and it turns out that these pens are useless to me. I just tried to install a Pilot G-2 0.7mm refill and it would not fit.
Does anyone want to buy these off of me? I have a black one and a blue one,
The second clip came off my second rollerball from this drop yesterday. While the rest of the pen has held up well, it's disappointing that a wimpy clip is used on an otherwise sturdy pen. I would not recommend these until they redesign the clip for actual use.

choiceweb0pen0Clips definitely the weak point of these otherwise very nice pens. Same happened to mine within days. Shame.

Mine just arrived today in Indonesia. Think DHL tied them to a whale and waited for it to migrate, but shipping anything to Indonesia normally costs a fortune, so can't complain. Good looking pens with well crafted lines. Look more expensive than they are, until you pick one up and the lightweight construction is apparent. I do like the way they feel in the hand and write, though this is a subjective thing. Clips to look a little delicate so will have to be careful not to fiddle with them. Oddly, of the two pens, the cap on one was a firm fit, but the other one was quite tight. Perhaps a shift in tolerances between colours or production runs.

On another less positive note, has anyone had an issue with the clip? I had one come off my black Dude pen and so far it hasn't not stayed in. I was flexing it a bit with my finger, so it might be something I did, but it's a little of a bummer to have the clip come off already.
I mainly joined this drop because I like the style and availibility of using different refills, but a week in, I'm impressed with the included OHTO rollerball. It writes smoothly with just a hint of feedback. When they run out, I will have to think twice about if I should use a G2, Energel, or OHTO refill.
