Re: Pens

The pilot retractable fine point. The retractable pens are the only practical styles. This pen has a nice fine point, darker black ink than most retractables and does not smear, blob, or skip. I have found them only at Walmart.

I like the Zebra's with the little skinny point. I have a long name so I need to maximize my signing space

Re: Pens

A pen is something I have a hard time holding on to. I buy inexpensive gel gliders, clickers, only because I go through lots of them.
Seems like I have a half-dozen in my pocket, or none at all!

I prefer the PhD multi pen. It has black and red ink and a pencil. They cost about 10 bucks, but this way I have everything I need all the time. The ink doesn't glob up either. Love it.

I am passionate about the Zebra F-301. It writes fine for small spaces and is not too expensive so I don't grieve when I lose it. You can buy them at Wal-Mart, K-Mart and other cheap dept stores.

Re: Pens

fat padded ones. I have arthritis in my hand and I can't hang on to the skinny ones.

Agreed, the Zebra F-301 is the best pen. I only use the zebra now. It has fine point, the ink always flows smoothly, no smudges, metal clip so I don't break it (which always happens with the plastic ones), retractable so no caps to keep track of, refillable, it is available in several colors. Awesome.

Re: Pens

My bossman gave me some really great ones. I'll see if I can find a source and let you know.
