Rhodia scRipt 3-in-1 Multipen Some pens are built for a single purpose. The Rhodia scRipt Multipen is built for how you actually write, annotate, draft, and think. This is a 3-in-1 writing instrument in the truest sense. A single barrel houses two 0.5mm ballpoint tips (black and red) and a 0.5mm mechanical pencil, each selected with a gentle twist of the barrel. No clicking through modes, no fumbling with separate tools. You rotate, you write. Design and ConstructionThe barrel is machined from brushed aluminium in a classic hexagonal profile, the same cross-section found on traditional pencils and precision instruments. It sits naturally between the fingers, neither too light to feel insubstantial nor heavy enough to fatigue the hand during extended use. The surface finish is tactile without being aggressive, and the whole pen has a quiet, considered quality that is consistent with the Rhodia brand's long-standing reputation for practical elegance. A pocket clip runs the length of the barrel, engraved with the Rhodia logo. It holds securely in a shirt pocket or notebook cover, and the engraveable surface makes this an appealing choice if you're looking for a personalised gift. Writing PerformanceThe 0.5mm black and red ballpoints are high-precision tips that track cleanly across paper. The line is fluid and consistent, with enough feedback to feel grounded without dragging. The red ballpoint is particularly useful for annotation, marking proofs, or any workflow that relies on colour differentiation at a glance. The 0.5mm mechanical pencil rounds out the set for sketching, drafting, or any situation where ink isn't appropriate. The graphite lead is fine enough for detailed work and precise enough for margin notes. Both ballpoint refills use the standard D1 format, widely available and straightforward to replace. Specifications Body material: brushed aluminium, hexagonal profile Length: 127mm Diameter: 10mm Weight: 20g Tips: 0.5mm black ballpoint, 0.5mm red ballpoint, 0.5mm mechanical pencil Refills: D1-style ballpoint refills (widely compatible) Mechanism: twist-to-select tip Clip: engraved Rhodia logo Packaging: cardboard box with display window A Note on the BrandRhodia has been producing quality stationery since 1934. The brand is French in origin and remains closely associated with their iconic orange notebooks, but their writing instruments carry the same values: functional, well-made, and designed to last. The scRipt line sits at the considered end of their range. Pairing SuggestionThe scRipt Multipen pairs naturally with any Rhodia notebook, particularly the Rhodiarama or the No. 16 A5 pad. If you're annotating with red and drafting in pencil, having paper that handles both ink and graphite well makes a real difference. Comes packaged in a cardboard box with a window display, ready to gift.
