My everyday pens + If I had to choose one

I carry a single pen in my pocket. But I need more than one pen in my life. These are the pens that surround me in my bag, my pouches, my office, and at home. I consider them my everyday pens.

Have an all metal Parker from 60+ years ago. Metal is thicker than current ones. Think they were called T-Ball Jotter back then.
If I could only have 1 pen think it would have to be my metal Jotter. Believe there is a Fisher refill for the Jotter is one needed wet, grease writing.

[@AboutThings_byTarif]

That is just great! The oldest pen I have is 40 years old 🙂. I absolutely love the Jotter and I have an all metal one but it is indeed very light so I can imagine how a thicker walled one would be a lot better for the writing experience.

[@calebrunne]

I really like your video, interesting options and well described. I am going to check out the parker jotter. Thanks. Subbed

[@AboutThings_byTarif]

Thanks a lot. The Jotter is a great and easy buy. There's also an all metal option if you want it to be way fancier and a bit heavier.
Also, thank you so so much for watching all the videos and taking the time to comment on all of them! This is the best part of having the channel for me so I appreciate it.

I have 2 pens. My fountain pen is a black Diamond 580 ALR, and it's mated with a Uniball Power Tank and a Lami Safari pencil. I've found that's all I need.

[@AboutThings_byTarif]

Sounds great and definitely enough. Didn't know Lamy made a Safari pencil. I guess I'll go check that out 🙂

[@angelus_solus]

@@AboutThings_byTarif I go mine from Jet Pens.

[@AboutThings_byTarif]

Thank you sir.

[@El_myth]

Heck yeah another pen guy

[@AboutThings_byTarif]

You bet. What do you carry on you?

[@sol-shegol]

Really liked the video! 👏
What a beautiful set of pens and pencils!
I only can’t accept two things: 1 - edc mechanical pencil without retractable tip and 2 - NOT fountain version of Safari 🤯

[@AboutThings_byTarif]

Than you so much and thanks for commenting.
I agree with number 1. That's why the Caran d'Ache is perfect. I should've mentioned that the tip is retractable. I don't carry the Rotring in my pocket of course.
As for the Lamy, I know what you mean 🙂feels a bit wrong. But I really tried with the fountain pen but we just didn't click.

I twink all Parker style refills should be clear so we can check ink level. Old Inoxchrom reffils used to be clear. Best regards from Brasil.

[@AboutThings_byTarif]

Definitely agree. I LOVED Inoxcrom pens growing up but they have since disappeared from my world.
Much love to Brasil 🙂

[@mariojr377]

@@AboutThings_byTarif thank you very much 😃

For me Sheaffer Sentinel has a better gripp than jotter (thin). It is possible to adapt Parker refill in the Sentinel.

[@AboutThings_byTarif]

I've had limited experience with Sheaffers and they were all substantial fountain pens so never thought of them as a jotter style brand. Will see if I could get my hands on it.

[@mariojr377]

@@AboutThings_byTarif the Sheaffer Sentinel is very similar to the Jotter and it costs like a Jotter, I love it.

[@foxtrot596]

I can’t believe you have so little subs! ❤

[@AboutThings_byTarif]

Haha. Yeah, I just started three days ago and have four videos. That's a huge compliment though and I'm really flattered. Thanks for subscribing!

An EDC pen review without the ridiculously overpriced Big Idea design pens. I love it for that alone. I basically have the same three pen set-up in ballpoint and fountain. An office pen with the Pilot Metropolitan and Retro Tornado, an all around pen with the Lamy Al-Star and the Rotring 600, and a pocket pen with the Kaweco Sport and Space Pen bullet.

[@AboutThings_byTarif]

I know! Part of my point was that you don't need a $100 titanium pen to have a great EDC pen experience. That sounds like a great collection you got there. I've been wanting to try the Koweco Sport for some time now, will probably go for the ballpoint at some point later this year.
