Rotring 600 back at Rotring store


Rotring 600 is one of the most amazing drafting pencils available. It was made by the German company Rotring during the 80ies and 90ies until they stopped making it.

You could still during these years after the 90'ies get a Rotring 600, either on the eBay or through Japan where the pencil was still availble (but it was not 100% same internally).

Now the pencil with the sharp look is back in Rotring shop again, very nice. It is however not the original German version but the Japanese version, however the text on the pen is changed to German style (mechanical font and Rotring logo).

I actually ordered a black Rotring 600 to replace mine from 1991 and a silver Rotring 800.

You should too!

Expect to find a link to a proper review of the Rotring 600 and detailed comparison with the German made original classic from 1991.
