I like Uniball Signo for my pocket and hotel pens for leaving in the airplane pen holder.

Ok awesome recommendation! I’m buying this, it will be the second pen I ever bought.

Used to have a space pen in the ATR days! Only pen that would write thru my sweat as it dripped onto the manual weight and balance sheet. Looks like they still cost more than one hour of FO regional turbo prop pay...

Rite in the Rain has a similar product with an all weather pressurized cartridge. I used it as a grunt. Worked ok. Lost it of course. I just use my company’s credit card advertising pen or hotel pens at this point though. Reading the comments of this pen, it appears to be the same as fisher space pen with different branding and proprietary ink, for whatever that’s worth. https://www.amazon.com/Rite-Rain-Weatherproof-Black-Clicker/dp/B000QBPZKS

Titanium machined pen. Had a cross pen until i found out they sold out and are now made overseas. While that’s fine, it isn’t the proud American pen with a long US made history it once was.

Pens and sunglasses I don’t lose.

Is there actually such thing as an $800 pen? That’s crazy!
