This thread is great. I’m not a pen fanatic, but I have been using Pilot Jotters on and off and on since I was in school, decades ago. There is just a balance to its weight, and the feel in my hand that’s just right. A few of you have mentioned not liking pens so much, and I know this is a mech pencil forum
, but I can’t use pencils. It’s a silly thing, but the friction of the graphite against the paper drives me up a wall. Kind of like fingernails on a chalkboard. I had a few classes where we had to use pencils, and that just about drove me nuts. I imagine that I just don’t know enough, and there must be some combination of the pencil itself, the “lead” or graphite, and the paper that minimizes that. Anyway. Oh yeah, one more, when I was a little older kid, my dad got me a Space Pen, but I didn’t have it too long before I lost it. But it’s the Parker Jotter that I always fall back to. ![]()
