bruh I have an exam in two hours and this is how good at procrastinating I have become. jeez phaha

When a lefty recommends a pen you listen.

For anyone interested... you can replace the hybrid ink refill in the Uni Jetstream Alpha Gel Grip with either a Pentel Energel or Zebra Sarasa gel refill. No modification necessary!

I am a third year law student and I am just now finding this channel ☹️ The pilot G2 .7mm & .5mm have been my go to for almost three years now.

Uniball Vision .5 are a super Value in a 12 pack. They last about 60 pages of 8x11 spiral notebook paper. Before I discovered the Zebra Vintage, I used the vision pen for 14 years straight.

"Sailor Profit Black Luster" fountain pen is made for law school students, to be used at Bar exam. That pen has center of gravity front-heavy, so possible to write for many hours without being tired. The predecessor of that pen was "Sailor Profit FL". "FL" means "for lawyer".

Seeing the writing side to side like that I think I'm finally sold on gel inks.

You should do a list of your top 5 favorite pens you own or your favorite of all time

Also, for those who wish to highlight their written text, I suggest using an oil-based or hybrid ink. These particular inks hold up well to highlighters as they are less likely, if at all, to smear.

I prefer the Parker Jotter Fine Point Black ink. Parker also has a Rollerball Refill if you like Gel type pens.

Would you modify in any way your picks at this date and are any fountain pens capable of reaching the same experience of writing as the ones you listed in this video?

Nice video. I use the alpha gel all the time.

Great video!!!!

What was the pen that you mentioned was too heavy in the beginning?

Can you please list the mm tip on each pen that you mentioned in the video

I love pens that are skip free, waterproof and doesn't bleed through the paper.

What works best for me during long writing sessions is a smooth ink, a weightier pen (metal body - no more than 25 grams), and a decent grip size (no smaller than 9 mm, no larger than 11). If the ink is smooth and the pen body is light, I find that my hand/wrist runs quickly across the paper, which makes writing errors more likely to occur. If the grip is too small, my fingers cramp up after some time. I've found 3 inks that work best for me: (1) Pentel Energel gel - 0.7 mm tip, (2) Zebra Sarasa gel - 0.7 mm tip, and (3) Zebra Surari hybrid - 1.0 mm tip. Of all the pens in my collection, the ones that work well for longer writing sessions that provide balance are (1) Zebra Sarasa Grand and (2) Zebra Surari 300. The one smooth ink and plastic body that feels the most comfortable for me is the Papermate Inkjoy gel pen, both the capped and retractable versions.

Any ballpoints for angled writers, as in I write at an extremely accuse angle.

Can you do best fountain pens for note taking

👍 Not a student anymore, but still like to watch vids on (fountain, gel, ballpoint,...) pens. Likewise fragrances and watches. I like Uni-ball Jetstream and Lamy ballpoints (Logo) very smooth.

Thanks

What about Bic pens?!?!

Hmmm it’s weird that I’m interested in these pens I find it quite odd

Have you used schneider haptify pen? I cant find a decent review. And india had a serious lack of ergonomic ballpens

Why would someone prefer gel over traditional ink?

Is Pilot G2 a good option for making essays, examens, notes?

No fountain pen for longer writing session?

0:26 what pen is that ?

A fountain pen

What about a classic bic pen ?

i'd be very curious what the longest lasting gel pens/refills are. For those who do a lot of writing, running out of ink all the time is ridiculous. i realize pens are a hobby for some people, but for others, the idea of having to establish a budget for ink and pens is absurd.

gel pens best for note taking, ballpoint best for tests. rollerballs and fountain pens i cant really find a good use for them. the liquid ink really doesnt work.

I hate gel pens!

Bic crystal writes better than all of them, and its cheaper
