        With a .07 ball. I don’t tolerate .05 or .1 heretics in my G2 superiority worldview.

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

        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.

      Pretty sure both 1 and 2 are jp and good

  • DicJacobus@lemmy.world ⁨11⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

    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

  • BoxOfFeet@lemmy.world ⁨10⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

    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.

    Pilot G-2, Obviously. #5.

  • frezik@midwest.social ⁨18⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

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

  • BlueLineBae@midwest.social ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

    My husband works at an architecture firm. They exclusively use #2 in 3 different colors. My husband has gotten in the habit of putting a few in his pocket during the day while he works and emptying his pockets when he gets home. We have WAY TOO MANY PENS!!! I’ve been bagging them up and giving them away!! They are nice pens tho… very good for drafting/drawing/etc. I just don’t need 300 of them. Beware that the blue ones tend to explode the most.

    source
    • GoodLuckToFriends@lemmy.today ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

      Oh my god, the explosions with the black ones are horrible, because you don’t realize until you start to grip and the ink just coats your fingers. I love them, but the horror will live forever in my mind.

      source
    • skulblaka@sh.itjust.works ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

      I had a pen like that when I was very young, had to be maybe in the 5th grade. It exploded on me because I chewed on the end of it while thinking. Parts of my homework desk remained blue until I graduated high school, I’m lucky my teeth didn’t also.

    Where the fuck are the Zebra pens

  • socsa@piefed.social ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

    5 is the objectively correct answer here.

    source
    • Coyote_sly@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

      Yeah, no contest at all.

      source
    • LifeInMultipleChoice@lemmy.dbzer0.com ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

      It’s probably the choice I would have to go with, but when I was working with full boxes a lot, I started caring more about which pens were sturdy sharp enough to stab through tape and drag through it 50 times an hour and not end up looking at the end of your pen and find out the tip ripped off. Switching to a box knife over and over slows you down a lot and I needed the pen to cross out and document what was missing from the orders. Pens with caps are a pain for that as well, waste time.

      I probably should have tried to find something like this: atechgo.com/…/multitool-pen-9-in-1-box-cutter?var…

      • LifeOfChance@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

        Damn that pen is actually super handy. My only issue I’d have is i really like having a fine tip pen I use a Pilot G2 07 black pen

      Does it also come in 9mm? I feel like .38 is a bit underpowered.

    not pictured, but uniball eye micro was my goat for high school and college. I had to do british standardized exams in high school which required black pen (not pencil). these guys write super smoothly and create really nice lines, but they take a sec or two to dry so you gotta be careful not to smudge.

      I assumed 1 was this one! Still the goat, still have 3 on my person at any given time.

    None of these pieces of shit.

    Probably would stick with my Pilot S95 Elite, or if I wanted something a little less flashy, my Lamy Vista.

    1. The Bic Pilot G2 in 1mm writes like butter. Glorious. $4.95 for a 4 pack.

      The price and quality are so hard to beat.

    If 5 is the G2, then 5.
