Pentel Clicroller Collection

 
Posted by Picasa
Here we have my collection of Pentel Clicrollers. I have always liked these pens and they all write well but Pentel no longer makes the refills. Most are from the 80s and early 90s. On the left is the cheapest of the bunch the RC5, next is the navy blue RC16, and the chrome and black RC20. Then we have three RC26s, two in black and one in white. The Olympic RC30 is next and three black and gold RC36s. They all use the metal CFL6 refill or the plastic CFL51 refill. You can still find them on EBay. There may be more models out there so we will continue to look. Add them all to your collection.

I have added "The best songs from the 50s and early 60s" and moved "Top Five Pens" and "Top Five Scripto Pencils" to the bottom of the blog. I will update as we go along.

  1. I have two of the above pens with many more that are just memories now. Where does one find refills for them or is there a reasonable substitute?

    1. I have the same question. I did find 5 old refills CFL 6 on ebay, but I would also like to know if there is a substitute.

    2. Cross makes a slim gel 8910-1 refill that works for me.

  2. I do not think so. The CFL6 is the only refill I know of and it is not made anymore. Checking it seems all of the ones I have are dry.

  6. You are one of the lucky ones. I have zero refills and Pentel does not make them anymore.

  8. I have several RC20's in my desk and can't use. What a shame. Was a great pen.
