7. I don't know why, I've just been using them my whole life, and they're comfortable for me. The platonic ideal of Pen. Especially the blue medium.

Pilot G-2, Obviously. #5.

Give me that smooth 5

Definitely 5, so much better than 99% of other pens.

Pilot G2 if I must, but the real answer is a Lamy Safari.

These are all terrible

7

If I HAVE to use a ballpoint, it's going to have to be a rollerball. Like the Uniball. But really, I'd take just about any fountain pen over any of them.

Show me the fucking feather

A 0.38 tip size of No.5

#5 carried me through three degrees.

I dont see any on here I would swear by.

I have taken a liking to the Pilot B2Ps, they are made of recycled water bottles, I liked them simply for the fact that they're the one type of pen we have in abundance at the office that no one else bothers to steal for some reason.

I like the Staples TRU RED series too.

what the hell is wrong with me, a year ago I'd be obsessing over some video game or hobby and now im discussing my pen model preferences, I think I've crossed the proto-boomer threshold

Where the fuck are the Zebra pens

7

5

I would pick 3 but I don't think its ball point and I have trouble controlling the strength when I press down on the paper.

Anyone saying anything but #7 is delulu. There's a reason Bic won pens

1. Uniball.

I write a lot (I am professor) and pilot g-2 (#5) is the way to go. Don't be fooled by sharpie's grip, I just finished a box of that model in red ink and g-2 is way better.

Uni Mitsubishi .38 I want it too feel like I'm stabbing the paper when I write

5, but black.

3, it's the easiest to activate and handle

Those special pens I learned to write with at school

5 has the ink i use, the g2 whatever. But I use it in the fat Dr. Grip pen, cause of my old hands.

3

anyone voting G2 hasn't used one recently, or hasn't used literally any other pens in that time. I think the G2 is the absolute worst one on the list. At least the bic doesn't pretend to be able to write very well.

The real question: Is that Pilot G7 a 0.10 or a 0.07? Very different pens. 0.7 ftw

2 or 3.

I use to love G2's, but they fell off. I found a sharpie pen a while back and was shocked by how well it wrote, it's now my goto.

This one right here by zebra: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01N6VIUPS

By far my favorite pen

#2. 100%

I have several boxes of Uniball Eco. The ink dries fast enough lefties can write without smearing. Also it looks sleek and professional.

The Japanese uni-ball pens are sweet, ~~don't think they are on this~~ Nvm it's #1 or close enough

cant go wrong with the BIC pen. #1 is not as good but very satisfying to use, strong contender.

Give me a clicky pen or give me death!

Where is my Sakura 03 micron??? 🥲

1 is already very similar to my pen of choice, and 2 used to be my pen of choice. So depending on how they feel, one of them.

3 or 5 was always my goto. That being said, I didn't have to write anything by hand in the last 15 years, and I'm pretty much forgot how it's done
