Carried with me, a Pentel Kerry. At home, a Skilcraft U.S. Government Scripto clone. Although it has been mostly a fountain pen day.

Yes, for many Visconti collections there are fountains, rollers, ballpoints and mechanical pencils too

 

The twist system is very good

 

I hope to buy a HS mechanical pencil for me in future

Got this recently for 15 dollars, but its a Cross Townsend with a TOSHIBA logo on it. Its funny, I wasnt expecting the logo on it, but as a child I used to play games on an old TOSHIBA tv, so it holds some nostalgia for me. Regardless, very high quality writer.

I did my crossword (I just have crossword books, don't get a newspaper) with this old Parker 0.9 mm pencil, which I assume is a 45.

 

Yes, I know, you do your crosswords in ink.

Rymans HB pencil.

 

Came in a pack of 12 for £1.50 odd (half price the week I bought them)

 

They are rather good - sharpen to a long point and quite durable.

 

Sadly, they only come in HB - it would be nice to see a B or 2B

The Blackwing Natural. There are a good many pencils that write just as good or better than the Blackwings in my experience, but I do enjoy the look of them, especially now that they made a natural version standard. Though the pencil originally came with a grey eraser, I replaced the one I am using with their green variety, a solid forest green that gives it a nice pop against the unpainted cedar wood...

My newspaper has two crosswords. The Daily Commuter version can be done in pen, but I would use pencil with the New York Times crossword.
