What kind of ink do you prefer in your pens?
I had been a Gel guy for a long while, but actually got tired of it recently and switched to regular P900 type ballpen inserts.
I really like gel pens in that they produce a nice, dark, bold line. What I have come to hate about them is how picky they are about writing surface. They never want to write on the paper type in my checkbook ledger, for instance. Also I often find myself having to jot a note on whatever piece of scrap paper I have in my vehicle. I was keeping G2 pens in the cars, but again, half the time they would skip or not write at all on some kinds of paper.
While the P900 inserts (what do they call that kind of ink anyway?) have a slightly "duller" ink, it writes on most all paper with no smearing. The Gel also smeared a lot, at least for left-handed me.
Anyway, right now I'm using these inserts:
