I made the same post on [email protected]

I'm looking for a high quality pen. I currently have a rotring 600, twsbi ballpoint, and trcpc bolt action pen. I would like to try more high quality machined pens. I exclusively use parker iso g2 refills so that is a requirement.

I think the pen I see the most on EDC posts is Tactile Turn. I don't own one but I've wanted to try the Side Click Short for a while. Let's say that if I could get any pen right now, I'd like to try that one.

The second one I think of is the Refyne EP1. It's more affordable and also seems well made.

The third and most expensive one I can think of is the Grismo The Saga. It's very expensive but something something tolerances.

I currently own an Everyman Grafton Mini Twist and for the most part I really like it. The only thing I don't like about it is how slippery is. It's actually strange how smooth it is. I was on their website a few days ago and noticed they have a new Super Matte version that is coated instead of anodized and supposedly has a rougher texture.

There are a lot of other pens available but those are the ones that catch my eye.

Edit: Because the original Grafton is so slippery I couldn't recommend it. I would try the Matte version though.
