Pilot Dr. Grip Center of Gravity Retractable Ball Point Pen (36181)

The Dr. Grip family has a writing instrument perfect for everyone.
The Invention of Dr. Grip Writing Instruments

Based on a common need for a more comfortable writing instrument, Pilot set out to give people the writing solution they were looking for. In 1995, Pilot launched Dr. Grip, a pen and mechanical pencil collection designed to provide superior writing comfort and be the solution to that demand. By 1996, the entire Dr. Grip line earned the Ease-of-Use Commendation by the Arthritis Foundation. More recently in 2012, a three-month study conducted by the Georgia Tech Research Institute found Dr. Grip Center of Gravity (COG) surpassed key competitors in overall comfort ratings for users both with and without arthritis. In the study, Dr. Grip COG was proven to be almost 2X more comfortable than key competitor brands*.

Dr. Grip is Offered in an Array of Point Types and Barrel Colors

Dr. Grip's classic line has been enhanced over the years with the introduction of a wide variety of barrel colors and styles. The collection includes both fashion-forward and professional styles for a variety of writing needs and occasions. Dr. Grip is available in barrel colors that range from fun neon colors, to sophisticated metallic hues, to professional blue, black, and silver. In addition, Dr. Grip is offered in a variety of point types including Medium 1.0 mm ball point ink, Fine 0.7 mm gel ink, and #2 HB mechanical pencil lead. Every Dr. Grip pen and mechanical pencil is retractable and refillable for continued use and lasting value.

Introducing the Dr. Grip 4+1 Multi-function Writing Instrument

The newest addition to the Dr. Grip Collection is a writing instrument that serves as both pen and pencil. In fact, the Dr. Grip 4+1 is 5 different writing options in one! Designed for getting complex jobs done with incredible precision, the Dr. Grip 4+1 has retractable Black, Blue, Red and Green advanced ink, as well as Mechanical Pencil lead. Dr. Grip 4+1 is perfect for anyone who needs--or just simply enjoys--different writing options for editing, organizing, and more. Dr. Grip is the ultimate all-in-one writing instrument.

I am a big pen snob and I really love this pen. It writes very smooth. There has been no build up of ink gunk on the tip like you get with so many cheap pens. The over all feel of the pen is very satisfying. I like this pen so much, that I bought two more of them after I tested out the first one for a while. The pen goes great with my new JP notebook, which you can find here https://amzn.to/3XpoMNK

My hand therapist recommended these pens and she was right!! If you have any kind of hand pain or grip issues they are worth having. Even if you do not have issues, you will love this pen. I liked it so much, I bought a second one just in case I misplaced one:)

I have been using this Pen for over a yeart now and I am extremely impressed with its performance. Here are a few reasons why I love this pen:Comfortable Grip: The most notable feature of this pen is its unique center of gravity design. The weight distribution makes it incredibly comfortable to hold and write with for extended periods. The rubberized grip provides additional comfort and control.Smooth Writing Experience: The pen writes very smoothly, thanks to its high-quality ink and precision tip. The ink flows consistently without any skipping or smudging.Refillable and Retractable: The fact that this pen is refillable is a major plus for me. It's environmentally friendly and cost-effective. The retractable mechanism is sturdy and protects the tip when not in use.Durable Construction: The pen is made of durable materials and feels well-constructed. I haven't experienced any issues with it breaking or malfunctioning.Overall, this Pen is an exceptional writing instrument that combines comfort, performance, and durability. I highly recommend it to anyone who writes a lot and finds their hands hurting.

I have several of these ink pens. I love the fact that they are so easy to use. The grip is not combersome at all. The pen writes very smoothly and you don't have to press hard to get it to work.

I've used this pen for about nine years now (putting in refills along the way). It's my favorite pen for everyday writing -- notetaking, listmaking, journal writing, etc. It writes very smoothly and is very comfortable in my hand. Hope it's never discontinued.

I used Dr Grip pens years ago and happens to see one in a store. The price was so much lower on Amazon. I love the feel in my hand and it glides across the page smoothly and effortlessly. It is heavy and a nice weight. It is a must for people like me with psoriatic arthritis. My hands tend to ache after writing for extended periods of time. This helps alleviate the stiffness and pain.

Love the weight of the pen and how nice it feels when holding it. I have a Dr Grip pen which I have been using as my daily pen for the last couple of years and was curious about this model. The PILOT Dr. Grip Center of Gravity pen itself is almost the same size as my other Dr Grip (and other G2 pens, buuuuut... the refills are not interchangeable at all! (see attached pic with regular G2 as reference)For me that was a deal killer... until I used it for a couple of days and realized how comfortable this pen is! I wish there was a way I could use my regular G2 refills in this pen (I have around 20 refills, and I think I'll have to find what to do with them now!), plus I don't know how long will this new cartridge size will last, since it has about 25% less than the original G2.So in short, great pen, easy on my hand, very soft grip; too bad about the ink cartridge!Would recommend it, though.

I bought this pen because I kept getting an achy thumb joint at work. It has done the trick and my thumb no longer hurts after writing all day. Don't know how it works apart from being heavier at the writing end but I can recommend it.
