    Depends on what I'm writing. If I am writing on something that I am likely to make a mistake then I would use a pencil, but if not, I would rather a pen.

    Parker all steel pens in black gel only. They are a cheaper pen ($7) but I love them and have never had a better pen, including the other pens I have had costing up to $80 bucks. I found them at walmart and office depot. I have around 20 of them.

    i prefer neither. i do all my writing on the pc. If i have to choose - i choose pencil. Easier to rub out, and it won't leak in my f$K!ng pocket. I have ruined so many jeans/shirts from damned pens... :P

    I agree with EinsteinsKid -- for everyday use erasable pen is the way to go. I complete crossword puzzles with the erasable pen because I have those after 40 eyes that can't see close anymore. But, for more serious or solemn occasions I prefer a fountain pen.

    For casual drawing, pencil.
    For formal writing and signatures, pen.
    For martial arts calligraphy, sable hair brushes...
    For actual self defense as an actual classical martial arts weapon, a fine stainless steel pen that is "kubotan" sized.
