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.
Anyone saying anything but #7 is delulu. There’s a reason Bic won pens
#2. 100%
Show me the fucking feather
#5 carried me through three degrees.
Give me that smooth 5
As a shorthand writer I approve of this comment.
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.
The Japanese uni-ball pens are sweet,
don’t think they are on thisNvm it’s #1 or close enoughPretty sure both 1 and 2 are jp and good
I was using whatever pens I could get before I found the JP pens. Now when I see one, I have to get it. The writing feels as though it glides like a brush over the paper.
Besides that, not sure why people say they explode on them, mine are indestructable. I write and draw with a very heavy hand and they stay rock solid. Pretty good pick for heavy handed people.
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.

Definitely 5, so much better than 99% of other pens.
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
3, it’s the easiest to activate and handle
Uni Mitsubishi .38 I want it too feel like I’m stabbing the paper when I write
Does it also come in 9mm? I feel like .38 is a bit underpowered.
No, but they do have a 30/30 version
