What pens do all y'all prefer writing with

[Extona]

So, title says all, what pen do you all write with? And why do you prefer it.

I personally always preferred fountain pens and after losing a gazillion of ballpoints, I went back to fountain pens.
 
These are the ones I currently own, from left to right; Lamy Safari, Pilot Kaküno, Montoverde Rodeo

 
Showing the nib of the Kaküno, a japanese EF nib. Which is smaller then EU/USA EF nibs. So basically extra-extra-extra fine.

Comparison of the nibs on the pens (courtesy of the Goulet Company).

The price range is, very affordable, as a fountain pen that is decent goes as cheap as 6$ for a Jinhao, or 15$ for a Pilot/Lamy.
But the thing that truly makes it cheap, is the ability to refill your own ink from a pot, which in the long run is cheaper than most ballpoint pens, with a way better experience, atleast in my opinion it is a better experience, because ballpoints tend to dry out on me.

So, what is your preferred writing instrument?

That is not Sinterklaas enough, now if they had this as a suit with Amerigo (Or the new stead, Ozosnel, which means "oh very fast") instead of Rudolf, perhaps.

Could do one with Zwarte Piet holding up Sinterklaas.

Speaking of pens: new year =new pens. I actually just bought a new set of Crayola Markers. They look something like this (although I got them at a different store).

I love writing with the Fisher Space Pen, all sorts of types available but it's the smoothest write I've ever used.

Pilot G2.  Black, blue, and red.  They do real good to mark up prints.
