lol i tot anyone will hand pain after write alot?
i dun think there will be any pen that will solve this problem..
unless someone invents the "egronomics pen"..
i think write 3 pages using watever pen oso will hand pain lah
esp now we too used to typing.
PENis.
buy those with rubber padding...
anyway, u cannot blame the pen if its the wrist/ finger muscle pain or spasm...
after 3 pages, whose hand wouldnt hurt!
it could be your grip that is causing you problems. A lot of people hold their pens/pencils the wrong way or use too much pressure.
One of the sites that may help. You can do more research on it if you like.
lol my hand always cramp up after an exam. write too much, too fast. now everyone's always typing, so not so used to writing =P
I like to use, Pilot G-tech C4. ![]()

Are you writing with your shoulder muscles or your fingers? If the method is wrong your hand will hurt easily.
I think G2 is just alright bah cos the ink is rather good ... ... if not can try other variants of G2 like Pilot G2 EX, Popular G6 (uses G2 ink but it hurts for me after writing for some time), Pilot G-Tecmatic (the ink is pretty good, and can fit in a G2 refill), Pilot Hi-Tecpoint V5/V7 Grip the retractable one (can fit G2 refill). Generally I have 20+ G2s (Mix of G2s and pens that can be fitted with G2 refills) because I find it rather smooth and doesn't hurt as much as other pens ... ...

i right, but when writing my left hand will like hold the paper in place mah, so smudge loh ![]()
then use any ball point pen lah...
I heard uni got a series of pen called JetStream, some people say the ink is ballpoint type one but some people say it is gel type... I purchased one from popular and tried it out, the ink turn out to be something like a ballpoint pen but as I unscrew the cap, I notice the ink cartrige iks something like a gel ink cartrige... This type of pen good or not?

Terribly rough for me, but grip wise not bad. Ink is ballpoint but costs rather expensive for normal pen loh ... ...
ironically enough, those china-made pens, 50 cents per pen that kind.. are seemingly the best pens to use.
also includes free pens from banks, etc.
i once had a singapura finance pen, damn smooth. later found out that the tip was 1.0mm ![]()
those free pens that cafe cartel gives with student meals also quite nice to write with, consistent and thick ink.
