Looking for a heavy pen

Tomorrow I will go and look if there are some hefty/heavy pens to write. Do you know any heavy duty pen models?

Fountain? Rollerball? Ball Point?
Looking at a custom? they tend to be on the heavier side.

Lots of good options out there. Metal will be the heaviest option.
I've got a few Cross ball points that are nice and heavy.
They aren't expensive either.

Go to an office supply store and you'll find plenty.

You'll likely find that the expensive pens are lighter on average.
As I suggest to most people, find something you can get refills for easily.
It's a pain trying to track down refills for an oddball pen.

I'll echo the Cross suggestion. I have a Cross Revere ballpoint that's plenty heavy. Great price points as well.

You know, one of the best ball point pens I had was a Parker Jotter. I had the all metal version and it was nice and heavy. Best thing was so many local stores had the pen and refills and the pen only cost about 10 bucks. Not a high end pen, but so many clients would comment on mine. Also, at 10 bucks, if you loose it, it's not that big a deal!

I for one, love Montblanc Pens and I have a Rollerball "Starwalker" pen (engraved with my name and been with me over seven [7] years...around $275-$300 range), which I enjoy immensely because of it's weight, large diameter and ease of writing and beleive that all persons regardless of gender...deserve 'the finer thngs' too.

I have a Waterman roller ball that has a nice weight to it. Just thought I'd mention it even though you said you wanted a ball point.

This pen in particular had my interest:



It is a Waterman Perspective and costs 99 euro. It was quite heavy at the tip, just wonder if it can be more heavier.

One of the first 'fine' pens I had the pleasure of owning was a Waterman Carene ballpoint. It is the twisty type, which is worth noting. Anyway, the pen is made of a nearly solid couple pieces of lacquered brass, which makes the thing VERY heavy. It's easily the heaviest pen I own. I also enjoy the smooth feel of the Waterman ballpoint refills. I'd give it a strong recommendation.

It's available on ebay, Amazon or a number of other sellers. The prices seem to vary by which color you choose. If color isn't particularly important, there seem to be a couple models available for around $60 to $70 US.

I have 4 of the Cross Townsend and love them. They tend to be on the heavier side. The RB is a little heavier than the bp.

Google "tactical pen" or "Self defence pen".

There are a bunch of manufactures making pens out of solid aluminium or titanium, with the intention for you to carry it as a self defence weapon, as well as a pen. They look pretty hefty.

Yep...I've got an Expert II roller ball that I've had for about 12 years. Love it. Nicely weighted and puuurdy

I love my Townsend ball point. It's the perfect size and weight for me.

Parker makes a nice ballpoint that is heavy in classic black and chrome. I bought one for under $20.00 at Officemax and it takes Gel ink. writes very well (I use this when a fountain pen wont work... think carbon copies).

To write with, I like light pens
For other purposes, get a Surefire Pen/Hinderer Pen/Elishewitz pen
HEAVY!

Another vote for the Cross Townsend. I have had mine for several years and it has been a great investment.

I love my ACME rollerball. I have one of the bullet shaped ones. Great heft to it. Metal body, enameled outer layer.

If I weren't afraid of losing it (it was the last gift my mother ever bought me), it might never leave my side.

+1 on the Rotring stuff. They make really heavy pens. Post pics of what you get!
