7, because they don't feel special. I never have to fret about my brain wanting to save them for special occasions.
3's grip looks the most comfy

This one right here by zebra: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01N6VIUPS
By far my favorite pen
Jtskywalker@lemm.ee 1 week ago
I prefer the F-701 personally but yeah, any Zebra pen over the ones in the op
Wetstew@lemmy.world 1 week ago
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.
Doomsider@lemmy.world 1 week ago
Sharpie pens are the best!
Delphia@lemmy.world 1 week ago
Give me a clicky pen or give me death!

7, easy spitball shooter

It’s 2 for me, always so reliable and write very clean

I once bought a pack of maybe 40 number 7 in all 4 colors, I am basically committed for life.
But these fuckers dry out if you don’t use them for a long time, I had to throw away a bunch. I tried receiving some by soaking them in Isopropyl alcohol, it worked for some but not all.

I’m lamenting the fact that this scenario means I’ve lost all my fountain pens, but I’d go with #5 in a .38

When I was a server, I only used Number 3, but it has to be the 0.5 size. 0.7 still smears too much.
Kichae@lemmy.ca 1 week ago
Probably 2, 6, or 7. I’ve always loved the V5/V7, but the liquid ink is messy, a bic is a classic for a reason, and the PaperMate flair has been my go-to felt-tip for a long time now. Though, the ultra-fine version is much better for writing than the medium one.
EvilBit@lemmy.world 1 week ago
If 6 is the Papermate felt tip, then that one. I like the static tip. Otherwise, probably the upstart Sharpie.

The Japanese uni-ball pens are sweet, don’t think they are on this.
Fredthefishlord@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 week ago
Pretty sure both 1 and 2 are jp and good
CherryBullets@lemmy.ca 1 week ago
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.

0 I don’t hand write
umbrella@lemmy.ml 1 week ago
cant go wrong with the BIC pen. #1 is not as good but very satisfying to use.
temporal_spider@lemm.ee 5 days ago
- 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.

Where is my Sakura 03 micron??? 🥲
Nalivai@lemmy.world 1 week ago
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

7 all day. Bic for life
SkyezOpen@lemmy.world 1 week ago
I love Bic but those particular ones have never done well for me.
Lucidlethargy@sh.itjust.works 1 week ago
All of these suck.
A7thStone@lemmy.world 1 week ago
What, no papermate inkjoy? Cheaper than G2s and they fit better in your hand, unless you are gripping it with clubs.
carpelbridgesyndrome@sh.itjust.works 1 week ago
I have an entire note taking program calibrated around the ink colors of 5. I kinda dug myself that grave though. They are at least decent pens.
Kolanaki@pawb.social 1 week ago
The good ol’ BIC G2. Phat fucking lines, I’ve never had one clog, they’re comfortable to hold and fun to take apart and put back together again while you pretend it’s a gun.
kat_angstrom@lemmy.world 1 week ago
Another vote for 5, 0.7
Like those Zebra Sarasas, the blue ones are perfect
5in1k@lemm.ee 1 week ago
Pilot G-Knock 1.0. G2 barring that.
TheOakTree@lemm.ee 1 week ago
The real solution is to find a parker compatible chassis that has the right shape, feel, and weight for your preferences. Then simply buy parker refills of your choice. Energel .5 is pretty great :)
PillBugTheGreat@lemmy.world 1 week ago
#5, but you tear off the clip. EVERY TIME.
Peppycito@sh.itjust.works 1 week ago
I do that with sharpies so I can get them in and out of my back pocket easily.
capt_wolf@lemmy.world 1 week ago
Uniball Signo 207
Writes easy and the ink is bold and dries fast. Comfortable enough for having to write 7 pages of client notes every night, even with my arthritic hands.
JaymesRS@literature.cafe 1 week ago
This is the true answer. The 207/207+ ink is the greatest. The sharpie pens are close though, especially with the weight of the metal barrel.
