- 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.
Give me that smooth 5
As a shorthand writer I approve of this comment.
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.
A Lemmy of culture I see. Love the Visconti.
Edit : Just noticed the stealth VP over on the right.
Thanks, I think it’s one of my best looking pens. The VP isn’t a VP, it’s a MoonMan A1. I’m not sure if it’s made by Majohn or not, but it is super similar to their A1 and A2 if it’s not. Writes well, good seal. For under $30. Highly recommend.
A 0.38 tip size of No.5
Pilot g2 is the way to go
Was a committed G2 guy for YEARS (ultra fine all the way). But I’m a lefty, so ink smears were still a problem (though the G2 is better than most on that front). Then I learned about the Sarasa Dry pens from Zebra. The ink dries INSTANTLY, and writes like a G2. But they’re hard to find so I always stock up when I see them.
Show me the fucking feather
#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

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.
I used 5 once and I ended up buying a pack of 10 as they were so good to write with.
Anyone saying anything but #7 is delulu. There’s a reason Bic won pens
- Uniball.
