The Lamy Tipo Rollerball Pen - White. Lamy rollerballs are a good alternative to fountain pens or ballpoint pens. Combine the best of the two classic categories: Our rollerball pens are as easy to operate as ballpoint pens. And they have a similarly beautiful type face to the fountain pen. Ready for use instantly. When the clip is pressed to extend the rollerball tip, the clip itself retracts into a slot in the shaft, meaning that it can no longer be used to clip the pen onto a pocket. When the top of the clip is pressed, however, the rollerball tip disappears inside the body and the clip returns to its original position. The LAMY tipo can once again be clipped onto a pocket without any risk of stains.
