I had a two Parker pens at school.. The majority of the time a Parker Vector style.. slim and easy to write with. I did also have a Parker 45 at some point but I had a number of vector pens throughout the years.

Now I find pilot hi-techpoint 0.5mm pens easier to scrawl and draw with too. Paradoxically I find fountain pen the wife got me more of an occasion writing pen.. it feels too alien and slow.

So many people had parkers in school As you said the vector style ones were hugely popular back in them days (mid 90s). I had quite a few of them, i also had non parker based pens (the ones with the smaller cartridges that had the ballbearings.


God knows how many shirts i ruined having ink pen flights flicking ink everywhere :D

I love it. I mainly use it for taking notes and sketching the odd graph. It feels really premium and that it'll last for years and years.
Yeah I love the mechanical click when you turn the pencil to release to nib.

I use it mainly for drawing but overall very impresse.
