  • Finally, it's my review of the stainless steel Parker Jotter ( amzn.to/2E5n7q4 ) pen. This is sometimes known as the "Jotter Core."
    If you are considering buying, you might want to check out the metal set ( amzn.to/2pIjlJj ). There are fancier Jotters too, like the Bond Street ( amzn.to/2OKthAd ) and gold trim ( amzn.to/2OKG2uA ).
    Keep in mind that anything Anniversary or Special Edition ( amzn.to/2OKtnb3 ) will likely have a plastic lower!

    Allot of people, don't realize that this pen is a James Bond pen. In the movie GoldenEye Q-Branch supplies Bond with a Parker Jotter pen that is a C4 grenade: three clicks arms the four-second fuse, another three disarms it. A classic pen, still widely available.

    My grandfather always used a Jotter. He had a collection dating back to the very first ones with the ribbed, nylon barrel and the inverted, non arrow clip.

    Picked one of these up quite some time ago. Didn't like it at first but found myself using it more and more. As you point out in the title of your video, it's a solid EDC. Thanks for the video.

    Parker recently released a Jotter XL version. It's supposed to be 7% larger than the standard jotter. This might be better
    for those who find the standard jotter a bit too thin to write with comfortably. Hoping to try one soon.

      ok. that is weird because on parker site there is not such a thing :)) probably they are made without parker s permission. who knows. if u buy one just look on the cap where does it say is made ? if is not France than probably they are some Chinese or indian replica which are not quality and will never buy that. ty anyway . i will email Parker to see if they are really going to produce those.

    • @acmramon
      @acmramon 5 лет назад +1

      i measure the size of a normal jotter and is 12.8cm and 0.9cm compared to 13cm and 1cm. so i think those are not XL size lol. probably fake indian made lol

    It's the best pen Parker makes. I have one in my pocket as I type this comment. The problem with Parker is they don't keep replacement parts for any length of time for their pens, especially their higher end ones. That is why I own and use Montblanc, Waterman, and Pelikan whenever I have something to say at a more personal level.

    It is what it is. I use my Matted Metal Jotter as an EDC everyday clipped into my Staples 3x5 sidebound notebook (clip is great) and it's perfect for jotting or quick writing. It fits into the notebook perfectly. I see BBC reporters with a Parker Jotter in their hand on field reporting on TV.
    Longer writing is where its lacking, but it's a jotter and not trying to fool anyone lol. It tapers too much for me for sit down longer writing sessions.
    They do have ones with stripes parallel to the body, but those are very slick and so much so that it feels like a different pen to me. I haven't tried your all metal Jotter because I'm afraid it'd be too slick for me.

    you know that I have one like yours, who is also Hindu; mine has a very nice grid on the cover, at the time there were two types: with the grid like mine and with filled squares, which is like the negative version. I like this pen because it is very representative, it doesn't leave you in a bad way with anyone, besides it is made of stainless steel; I like this material because of the way I carry the pens: I wear a T-shirt a lot, I hang the pen around my neck... and of course the body of the pen comes into contact with my skin. Well, chrome-coated pens based on brass, like the cross century classic, the chrome coating comes off and the brass irritates my skin, which has even caused me problems with my girlfriend. That's why I prefer stainless steel pens like parker and lamy (the lamy logo, which is my favourite)

    I keep reading reviews about people getting counterfeit parker pens. What's your opinion about where to get the authentic thing?

    • @acmramon
      @acmramon 5 лет назад +1

      made in France . the factory moved in France

    • @CarthagoMike
      @CarthagoMike 4 года назад

      Your best bet, if you want to make sure the pen you get is authentic, is to go to your local pen or utensil store.
      They buy pens directly from the factory, and thus the chances of counterfit are really low.
      Another option, especially when you buy online, is the second-hand market. Fakes and counterfits are almost always sold as brand new, so if you buy a good condition second hand one, you have a high chance of it being the real deal.

    how can you tell its genuine? how many grams does it weight (with the refill) ? lately i am looking for this model and a lot of people say that those on amazon are fake . also if you look closely, the pen in the first link you put in the video description ( stainless steel with chrome trim clip) is different from what you are showing in the video (look at the shape of the arrow tail drawn engraved at the clip)

      mosh mohem the clip design of almost all the Parker pens including the Jotter, changed in 2016. There was a redesign in order to 'refresh' the timeless value of the most iconic writing instruments such as the Parker. Now if you'll notice in terms of durability it is more functional and from what I've heard from friends who owns the post 2016 variations, it appears that there is no longer the danger of breaking it as it was with the old style...
