Here’s a list of pens I’d recommend to any budget-minded pen enthusiast.
Some of these pens are not necessarily beginner friendly. (Beginners should start with a Pilot Metropolitan or Plumix, Lamy Safari/Vista, or TWSBI Eco, in that order.)
- Daiso’s Little $1.50 Marvel
- Jinhao 991
- Kaweco Sport
- Lamy Vista
- Penton F10 Demonstrator
- Pilot Plumix
- Pilot’s sub-$15 Wonder Duo (aka the Metropolitan and the Kaküno)
- TWSBI ECO
- Wing Sung 618
