Best Pens for Moleskines

There’s lots of discussion amongst Moleskine fans about which pens are best for use on Moleskine paper. Here’s the most exhaustive list of pen reviews I’ve found, at a blog called Sandscribbler. The author’s favorites:

  1. Uni-ball Signo RT 0.38
    The best Moleskine pen that I’ve found so far.
  2. Pilot G-2 05 and the
    Uni-ball Signo 207 Micro 0.5
    Very nice alternative pens, if a .38 feels too “scratchy” to you. You can’t go wrong with either one.
  3. Uni-ball Signo 207
    The tip on this pen is a bit wide for me for everyday use, but I love using this pen when writing my signature.

I picked up a Pilot G-2 05 and a Uniball Signo 207 Micro. Of the two, I personally prefer the Uniball by far. I found that the Pilot would often skip in my Moleskine, unless I was pressing down harder than I usually do when writing. But I don’t think either of these pens beats my longtime favorite, the Uniball Onyx Micro.

  1. I’m a big fan of the Signo 207. It fits well in the hand and it writes very smoothly. I’m also a fan of the Zebra G-301. I really like the stainless steel look and feel. They both are my pens of choice while using the Moleskine.
