You can just google it.

Here is a link to an image of one I found on google:

I like fountain pens and all, but I always tare the paper when using them.

Strangely enough, I can use my fountain pen, which is a dip style.

Essays etc - Fountain pen every time, since I seem to be able to write a lot more neatly with it
Notes - Couldn't do without my gel pen. Does anybody else here use GTD (Getting Things Done - David Allen book)? I find a gel pen is very useful for the famous Hipster PDA.

where neatness is imperative, i'll sometimes use a pencil to write out whatever it is that needs writing, and only when i'm happy with it will it get a 'top coat' with a pen. then the pencil can be erased.

though mostly i'll just use whatever happens to be handy at the time.

but if someone else needs to read it

I've favored mechanical pencils for a small eternity now, since like others have already said. They're precise and always sharp. I personally favor HB graphite for taking notes. Oh and I've had mine since the ninth grade and it still works like charm.

I need a new ribbon for it, but my prefered writing impliment is my typewriter, simply for its old school feel, and the satisfying crunch of the keys. It looks cool on cassette labels etc.
