    LOL! I like 0.9mm gels quite a bit. They can get a bit messy if you have to write a lot though. I have a red 0.7mm Sarasa SE on my company dogtag that I love though. Probably my favorite type of gel pen ever.

    It would depend on the application.. for filling in courier dockets, carbon paper, labels it would be 1.0. For taking notes and such, 0.7mm.

    I prefer .5mm and am disgusted that isnt an option to vote.

    Thought this thread was about pencils

    Loco and Puff's are comparing sizes. One is really small, and the other is only slightly larger.

    The preferance for 1mm could only be to cover up an unsteady hand. Smaller than .7 however tends to be scratchy and not very smooth.

    .7 of course.

    You gotta be a swede if you use 1.0.
