Here is a beautiful $1,000 pen. If you’ve ever asked the guy your flying with to borrow his pen for the sign in sheet and you have no attention to detail. He was squirming because that pen means a lot to him!

I tied one of those cheap bic white barrel pens to my kneeboard about 10 years ago. Thing still writes. Can’t kill it.
I like the Zebra stainless barrel pens. Very durable, cheap, refillable, narrow—fit in pen/pencil pockets (huge for flight suits and jackets).

Any pen lovers out there? Not looking to spend $800 on a Montblanc. Needs to be small and able to write in the logbook well with triple pages.
