Description
Don’t be misled by its playful appearance — the Penco Bullet Ballpoint Pen Light is a seriously well-designed writing tool. Made in Japan, this compact little number is crafted for those who need a pen that slips neatly into any pocket or pencil case, without compromising on performance. With oil-based black ink and a satisfyingly smooth glide, it’s always ready to jot, doodle, or dash off that grocery list you’ve forgotten thrice. The sturdy ABS resin body comes in 12 cheerful colours — mix and match lids, if you fancy being a bit of a maverick. Also available as a mechanical pencil.
What Makes It Work So Well
• Truly Pocket-Sized: Measuring just 9.3 cm closed, it fits into even the slimmest of spaces without a fuss.
• Built to Travel: Ultra-light at 8g, and made from tough ABS resin — it’s ready to roam.
• Refillable Reliability: Uses standard D1 refills, so you’re never caught inkless.

Questions
Hightide Penco Bullet Ballpoint Pen Light Orange
I usually enjoy your products but this one was truly disappointing. The ballpoint scrapes just to get the ink to show and it does flow at all no matter what usual hacks I try.

Hightide Penco Bullet Ballpoint Pen Light Black
Nice and light weight. Fits beautifully into a pocket. Ideal for a bag or to be used without worrying you are going to damage it. It’s brilliant to write with when used with the cap. Without it, the pen feels too small. Only gets 4 stars, as these could be price slightly cheaper, as the quality difference between these and the very well weighted more premium brass versions is huge.

Hightide Penco Bullet Ballpoint Pen Light Red
Sounds daft but the outer casing colour wasn’t red, more burgundy. Was a present for my great nephew who loves red. Thankfully ordered the orange too - nearer a bright red.
Also for myself ordered the mint green, very disappointed totally different from pic quite a dull dirty version. 😣

Hightide Penco Bullet Ballpoint Pen Light Blue
Fab little pen. Very small and light but great to hold in the hand and writes very little. Pretty colours too recommend.

Hightide Penco Bullet Ballpoint Pen Light Khaki
This pen is small but is a joy to write with, it is well-balanced and the nib doesn't clog just glides across the paper. I highly recommend it and will be purchasing refills when it runs out.
