A pen quesion

I have a few Cartier and ST Dupont pens that I use for work. What do people recommend for a cheap disposable ballpoint for around the house? I am thinking something from Amazon.

Life is too short to write with a cheap pen. Plus you’ll wish you had a better hand experience.

Get a Waterman and choose the ballpoint refill you wish. Less waste as well.

Parker Jotters are great and cheap. There's a reason they're still the default 'better-than-Bic' after so many years.



The Caran d'ache colour series are lovely too, and being metal, have a more premium feel.



There's also the Fisher Space Pen - I love the history and though they're expensive, I tend to carry one in my pocket.




Long out of production (and not very ergonomic) but my all-time favourite ballpoint is the Aurora Thesi. I keep one on my desk.
