Pilot G-2, Obviously. #5.
Definitely 5, so much better than 99% of other pens.
- 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.
Pilot G2 if I must, but the real answer is a Lamy Safari.
The day I first gripped a #5, had there been clickbait thumbnails back then, mine would have read:
This Changes EVERYTHING!
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
These are all terrible

#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

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

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.
- Uniball.
1 and 2 look good but looks are deceiving. 5 and 7 all the way.
I like 1 because it's thin and not a roller type. You only have to imagine writing and you're doing it. Rollers can be ok, and 5 is a decent example, but 1 used with a ruler for precise drawing, nothing beats that.
I would've agreed with you 13 years ago, but something changed with the pilot G2s. They went from S tier to B at best. Ironically, I've replaced them with 2 now. The Pilot Precision's have been my favorite for quite awhile now personally
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
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.

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
Poor ignorant fools not knowing the F-701 and F-402 hack.
Enjoy your writing in poverty and discomfort, you will never know glory because you sought comfort in convenience and thrift instead of greatness at all costs.
No zebra? Guess I’m never writing again.
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.
Sharpie pens are the best!
Jetstream 0.5. Probably 5 is the closest. I still have a box of 2 floating around.
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
4, those pens are so smooth
