As long as it Just Writes(TM) I don't care. I want to pick it up, and I want to write. I don't want to try writing only to find it's dried up and I have to scribble on some other bit of paper before it comes back to life. Now OK if I've left the lid off then that's my bad, but if I haven't then it should just flipping work.

Graphgear 1000, without a doubt. Such a great pencil, and I love that it is weighted. It feels so much more natural writing/drawing, at least to me, with the Graphgear.
Number 2 is the only one that can write effectively on wood. I may not build a lot, but when I have tried to use a mechanical pencil for marking wood, it was a total fail.
- If necessary, 2.
Wtf is this shit? No Rotring. No Alvin. No Koh-i-Noor. I guess I have to take the GraphGear, but it's under duress.
i love my kuru toga, but i don't really write much anymore. i do still like doing sketches in my sketchbook, and i'm biased towards mechanical pencils, so it's a #1 for me.
They're all wrong. I don't see a Blackwing up there.

We’ve taken way too many things that don’t need to be plastic and made them plastic
+1
never fails
made them plastic
#1 is all metal. Retractable tip. Bought one after Adam Savage reviewed them.
#2 is definitely the best long-term option, but it's really nice not to have to constantly sharpen while you're doing some intricate work.
After 25 years of writing Japanese and trying many cheap and expensive options...
「Zebra Clip-on multi」
is my forever pencil (+pens).
No pencils. Let the record stand, cross off mistakes with a single strikethrough like a gentleman.
Just gimme the damn wood pencil, #2

A pen.
I'm a Pentel man but the one pictured doesn't look very comfy. I'd want something closer to #6.
Pentel used to be my pencil of choice, too. You'd probably want something more like the e-Sharp. The one pictured is really more of a precision work one. Drafting, art. Less for long-form writing.
Rotring rapid pro 0.7mm
What's your opinion on the rotring tikky? I'm personally a big fan of the 0.5 tikky
Tikky II got me through my entire education.
Yeah, that one, it's quite good.

Who writes with a pencil? Drawing.... Okay... But writing is what fountain pens are for.
Better not make an error with a pen when you're doing/writing down math.
Only Faber-Castell for me
Number 3. I already did two degrees with it.
Number 1.

Same. I press too hard to use mechanical pencils
I just like being able to use a duller point sometimes when I'm drawing.
i also enjoy being able to do some shading if i wanted to draw something
I never really got to use good mechanical pencils so I don't know much except... Not 7.
#3 for the always-sharp tip, but #4 is a close contender for the protection against snapping lead. (I own both of these pencils.)
