I’ll take the good ole #2 pencil. Just enough tech and no more.
- If necessary, 2.
2 although 6 is also pretty good from my experience.
Graphgear 1000, without a doubt. Such a great pencil, and I love that it is weighted. It feels so much more natural writing/drawing, at least to me, with the Graphgear.
They’re all wrong. I don’t see a Blackwing up there.
The fact that Rotring, Staedtler, Faber-Castell, and K&E mechanical pencils are missing is deeply troubling.
I also have an emotional thing for the Pentel P200 series, and the Pentel Techniclick in black has been my absolute personal favourite for light-duty scribbling and note-taking/math since the 90s.

Ticonderoga #2, an absolute classic.
# 2 (lol), but only if I can provide my own type of pencil. Runner up gg1k.
Do I get to choose my lead size?
Yes
3 with .9mm lead

What is it like to hold? I have a few nice mechanical pencils but wouldn’t mind to get something a bit less expensive for when I travel to the office (my everyday is a YOL but I don’t like taking it out… ADHD, outside, and nice things do not mix well).
I have 3 of them, one of which is metal and cost me more than I’d like for a pencil but holy hell is it nice to write with.
- I like the Zebra.Got them at Dollar Tree or one of the Dollar stores.
I am a simple man. I see Ticonderoga, I choose Ticonderoga. I like ships and I cannot lie
A pen.
I used number 5 throughout high school and university and they always served me well. Sometimes I thought about trying the fancier ones with gel grips, but old reliable BIC was always there for me. I trusted the BIC. In a world of uncertainty, the BIC will never let you down (or run around and desert you)
