What is your opinion of the quality of this item? I've had this pen for over four years. It writes well, and has never given me any trouble. Even though I own more expensive pens, this is the one I seem to use every day. Not your everyday pen design, but interesting. It fills, it writes, it never seems to skip or clog. This pen has got to be one of the great all time pen bargains. I think my other answers show that I love the pen.
