Pilot V Pen Disposable Fountain Pen - Black, Box of 12

> hand fatigue

Try a fountain pen. Seriously. Many people press far too hard with ballpoints; with a fountain pen, you can't -- you'll bend the nib and smudge.

Some adults won't have written with one since school; younger ones, never. But they exist for goods solid ergonomic reasons.

After you get used to them you write better, too.

There are good disposable fountain pens now, and I've been using them for a decade and a half. I like the Pilot V-Pen.

Costs about £5, lasts many months of heavy use -- much more than any cartridge pen as the whole barrel is full of ink -- and I have never ever had one leak in my bag or pocket.

Highly recommended.
