#3 for writing.
i love my kuru toga, but i don't really write much anymore. i do still like doing sketches in my sketchbook, and i'm biased towards mechanical pencils, so it's a #1 for me.
I mean most of these look pretty uncomfortable, 8 looks the most comfortable.
Only Faber-Castell for me
I cant use pencil. I have a bad habit of pressing down hard when writing and I just keep breaking the tip. So I always use pen. Get dat bic boi
Hey made it easy with this one. 8 with the largest diameter lead I can fit in it.
Despite not having tried any of them I guess I'll pick #1 since it's the most robust looking one.
Currently I use one from Bic which works well enough.

Pencils are terrible, pens are the superior writing implement.
Already made up my mind and got a rotring 600. Plan to use it till the brass erodes
I never really got to use good mechanical pencils so I don't know much except... Not 7.
Number 3. I already did two degrees with it.
2 although 6 is also pretty good from my experience.
6, cause it’s a gel pen. For a pencil, not really bothered by these options…probably 2.

either kuru toga, or a zebra one I had for a long time before an exchange student gave me the kuru togas
#7, it doesn't push up when you press on it.
