    My father has some weird obsession with pens and he collects them to some extent. For me, if it puts ink on the page I'm pretty much good with it, but these are often my go-to:

    The Pentel Energel 1.0 is my pen around here.....its a FAT writing pen with a great glide to it. I got in the habit of buying pens with lids because back when I was retail I'd have to hand over my pen to people to fill forms out and they'd always take my pens.....so I'd give them the pen and keep the top so they couldn't put it in their pockets.

    I'm with LF. I like a gel pen because it somehow makes my sloppy handwriting look a bit better.

    I like fine black.

    She likes medium blue.

    You have to have some red ones, to show off the mistakes "she" makes. LOL

    Retail price now - about $12.00, but worth it !

    Wife has two large containers in her office of pens that are separated by color, blue and black from when she was teaching. Whenever I need a new pen I go in her office and take one. I would imagine there are enough pens to last my lifetime in those two containers.

    My favorite ink pen has to have a special feel to the grip. I go through a lot of pens and can't really say just what brand it would be, but once in a while I will find one that fits my hand and actually causes my writing to improve immensely!


    When I was in the retail greenhouse business, I would tape fake flowers to the ends of pens and have a cup full on the sales desk for customer use. Those pens always were returned to the cup!

    Another vote for the Pentel Energel "Classic Grip" now no longer sold at Staples. I have two of them. I recently needed a refill and had to search for them, but bought a near lifetime supply in both black and blue. The pen has a fat, cushioned grip that's shaped to be held in one way, and the gel ink simply glides along the page. I can't find a picture of them and I'm not going to try to take one because they don't sell them any more anyway.

    The cheap free bics I get from the feed store, pretty much only place I write checks these days...

    I bought a Papermate pen when I went to college. It has a brown barrel and chrome top. There is nothing special about it other than sentimental feelings toward it. I had it lost for several years, and recently found it in my reloading room under some paperwork, It took several days to get the smile off my face.

    When I was doing team/individual photos for my son's youth soccer league I'd start the day with a dozen Bic pens at the order station.

    By the end of the day I'd still have about a dozen pens, but usually two-thirds of them weren't the pens I started with ;)

    Sadly, the only cursive writing I do is my signature or a brief note on a holiday card.

    Everything else is block printing

    As an experiment I sent myself two identical birthday cards one addressed in cursive letters, one in block print.

    Block print took 4 days to come back. Cursive address took 11 days ! ... someone at the USPS actually had to read.

    I had to stop signing books in cursive because I messed up so many and it was either embarrassing or I had to toss the book because it was no longer saleable. Had to start using block print over my signature, which is apparently the only thing I can legibly do anymore.

    I am left handed and many pens drag due to the way I hold my pen. About 15 years ago my secretary gave me a

    Uniball Jetstream to try. No drag, no smudge etc. As I had to sign or initial documents several times a day, this was the first pen that really worked for me.

    Every year two boxes of these were purchased for my use. (Folks used to swipe them once in a while) Since I retired, I buy them as I need them.

    I love my Zebra F-402 BP 0.7mm tip. Very comfortable to use, very fine line. Makes my writing better!

    I told my son-in-law about this pen, how much I liked it. Mark laughed. Said he agreed with me as he has been using this pen for several years!

    I have a coupe I was given as gifts for reaching some points along the way where I use to work xx amount of years was one of them I do not recall the other "milestones " I think they were cross brand pens in fancy boxes I gave them to my wife but they may be still squirreled away in a drawer or a safe

    almost forgot I do have one of the self defense model aluminum pens that is suppose to be a self defense tool if needed . If I get close enough to ask for a signature I will be up the creek any way LOL
