I love it! I am one of those guys that just likes nice pens. I had been looking for either a waterman or a cross pen set, and couldn't find a Waterman for under $35 anywhere. Then, I found this.

I wasnt planning on getting the knife, but it's a great add-in. I still can't believe it. Very cool. Have taken pen everywhere.

It is a black pen with silver on top and ends with the nice Waterman logo/letter at the top. I love it.

This is a birthday present for my husband to use at work. He is an Engineer for a well known radio manufacturer. I wanted him to have a classy pen to use when he was working. He is very pleased with the high quality of the pen and the small Swiss Army knife is an added bonus.

I had never bought a higher quality pen, wondering why anyone would pay more than a couple of dollars for one.
I wondered UNTIL I held and used this Waterman. The weight and ballance of this pen feels right while writing~ A smooth writing mature instrument.

I likes pens and am willing to spend much money and time for a nice pen. Thinking that $20 was still worthy if it's really a nice pen, I ordered this gift for myself.

However, when I got this Waterman Hemisphere pen in black, I was very disappointed. Yes, this pen does look nice and feels nice when holding it (it's rather heavy). However, in terms of smoothness, the most important characteristic of a pen, it's NO better (if not worse) than those cheap $1/dozen Bic or Papermate ballpoint stick pens! In this price, I had expected it to perform much better. This reminds me of a review at Bic Roundstick pens, "Are they still better than those expensive pens?"

Therefore, if you want to get a nice looking gift, then this one is not a bad choice; but if you want to get a nice writing pen for yourself, this one definitely is not worthy it.

They are great, bought some for gifts, then had to buy one for me.

The gift set is very stylish and chic but the knife is very small. Therefore I would recommand the gift set for woman which appreciate small things for full purses. :)
