no one in here tried uniball laknock?
0.7 and 1.0 gives nice writing experience. doesn't spread ink around or to underneath paper. ink doesn't jam (once? in last 5 years..) doesn't get damaged on light/few falls (on heavier falls the retractable action could get damaged).
overall lasts long for the price tag (the one I am using now is close to 1 year old, still writing well)
