Favorite Pen?

[Jose Negrete]

I recently got a Rotring 600 and it's very similar to my favorite pen, the Ohto Flat C which is long discontinued. I'm curious to see what you all prefer for note-taking or sketching.

Just a good old Paper Mate Flair pen does me fine. It was my go to pen when I was a broke architecture student for notes and sketching. Now I don't feel the need to use anything else.

I like the rotring 600, it is a great mechanical pencil. They make an 800 model with retractable tip but I don't think it's worth the price.

 

At the moment my favorite mechanical pencil is the Uni Kuru Toga. It has a mechanism that transfers tip pressure to a mechanism that rotates the lead as you go. It works surprisingly well at keeping the tip of the lead more consistent and sharp.

 

Check out JetPens website. Just a quick glance shows that Ohto still makes mechanical pencils, although not that particular model.

My favorite pen is Sakura pigma micron. One of the reasons why I love using these architect pens is that it does not bleed. Aside from the smooth flow, the black inks are well-saturated.

The Ohto MF-20K3B is my favorite for a couple years now. It's as slim as the flat c in my original post and holds 2x D1 refills and a 0.5mm lead pencil.

I nearly just went and bought one of those Ohto pens, then I saw Rotring have one very similar, and my answer to the original question would have been my Rotring 600 lava pen(cil)... Hmm. They both look nice.

I actually wanted to get one of those rotring to compare but jetpens has been sold out of it.
