Ask HN: Favourite Pen
6 points by helij 2 months ago | 9 commentsWhich pen do you find really smooth for writing notes. I remember a few years ago I had a pen that was really smooth and also made my writing semi-decent. Whatever I try these days is different. Don't want to say not good. Before venturing into buying a dozen different pens to test I welcome any suggestions.

the refill costs more than the original pen
- mrtomservo 2 months agoI love my 0.7mm Zebra Sarasa Clips (dark blue). I buy the refills to put in other pens. The ink dries nearly instantly. Not fancy, but a great workhorse pen.
- Lyngbakr 2 months agoI like fineliners for everyday use and opt for Sakura Pigma Micron #05s. They're quite reasonably priced and are very enjoyable to write with!
- 90s_dev 2 months agoI got a nice wooden Wordsworth fountain pen off Amazon last year. It was fun for a bit.
