I think it really depends on the person. Some people might love the pen, but still manage to lose it. Others might not really appreciate a high quality pen. Pens are overall great for most people as a gift though. Great video, thanks!
You left off the Eco, Caran d'Ache, and Rotring, which are also offered via Amazon.com, from your list above. The Eco, Grand, 2000, and Aero all get my vote! Thanks for the video.
The Pilot S20 pen and the pencil are excellent choices, and I have both in the red tone wood. The S10 drafting pencils are also very nice, and it would be cool to gift someone all five sizes. That Pilot Automac is also available in an all metal satin chrome finish that looks exquisite. I would also suggest any of the Retro 51 rollerballs, as they have so many quirky, and also more subdued variations. I have five now, and my latest is an exclusive from Goldspot Pens that is a gorgeous blue fade lacquer finish. I really enjoy the fit and finish and the smooth writing refills.
I would of bet that you would of had the Messograf pen. It's made in Germany. It's a pen and a caliper together. I bought one around 2 years ago and it didn't last 6 months . The caliper part broke but the pen still operates.
Absolutely love the Muji FP and the Lamy 2000 rb. Didnt even know those existed. WIll be looking them up. Thanks for the video, New follower here. Hello from Alamo Texas.
Do you plan to make the same video topic but for mechanical pencils? That Pilot Automac is an exceptional mechanical pencils. I got mine for 12 bucks new.
favourite reviewer! liked and subscribed. i'm trying to find a pen that i think you reviewed that uses the clip to click out the point--maybe in the 35 dollar range. any ideas?
New to your channel and too lazy to see if you've already done this but would consider doing a video on executive style pens? I have a Ohto Liberty rollerball and I absolutely love it.
I own a Liberty as well. I don't write with it much but agree it's a pretty decent pen. Some others: Pilot Timeline, Pilot G2 Limited, Uni Jetstream Prime, Pentel Philograpy, Pentel Alloy, Zebra Sarasa Grand, Lamy 2000, Lamy Swift, Lamy Aion, Retro 51, Kaweco Dia2, Parker Jotter, Metropolitan (rollerball and fountain). Of course there are others, but these are ones that quickly come to mind. Sal has posted reviews on the majority of the ones mentioned.
Can you upload center of gravity for each pens that you review next time? It would be much helpful to me if you do that. Thanks for your great videos anyway. I do enjoying it!!
It's just a moleskine notebook without lines. Pretty common, you can either order one here or go to your local Barnes&Noble. www.jennibick.com/products/moleskine-soft-cover-notebook-black
If i gift someone a pilot v5/7/10 for Christmas, i honestly believe he should rightfully stab me in the eye with that needle-tip. Loved everything else though, excellent video like always :)
Love the vids! Have you ever checked out the Machines Era pen? It's similar to the embassy pen you showed, but much lighter and also affordable. It's a pretty simple but very well designed pen. It's one of my favorites. You should check it out.

Gonna gift a few of these pens to myself!
How bout this. I gift you some you gift me some

Instablaster.
The Sarasa clip is really nice. It comes in a variety of colors and will take almost any gel refill.

Thank you, Sal. I want the Procyon FP and the Best Made BP...and maybe the Diplomat FP.

Hm, nothing is coming to mind. Maybe the Lamy swift?
@@unsharpen i think it was a frixion lx premium after more studying....
How about LAMY Pico?
Thank you for a very informative video. Is there a chance you could get a pilot pop'lol in for a review?

How is this best communicated? Who does this well already? Seems hard to measure
@@unsharpen I think you can just put a pen on your index finger, and balancing it out. That would be enough for me and other viewers.
Hi sal, could you check if the refills for the Acro Drive fit in the f-701? I noticed the dimensions were similar.
Zebra sarasa grand is a good shout!
Could you update this list?
Hey Sal, what was the notepad you used in this video?
1:52 what kind of notepad is that?
It's just a moleskine notebook without lines. Pretty common, you can either order one here or go to your local Barnes&Noble. www.jennibick.com/products/moleskine-soft-cover-notebook-black
Yeah, I know it doesn't look like a notebook in the vid, but you can take the paper out of the notebook.
i got myself and my sister new old stock 90s parker jotter and Vector
I loved the vector back then. So cool
