My favourite pen - my absolute favourite - was a gloss black Cross Edge. Funky “pull to open” thing, I had been given a blue one branded with a company who did some work for me.
Cross don’t make that pen in gloss black anymore, they’ve cheaped out and the matte black is terrible, I tried it for a while and was heartbroken.
I refused to upgrade to the same old same old Mont Blanc you will see in literally every London office so got something a little different - a very vintage Sheaffer. This little saying from No Country For Old Men lives next to it on a brass tray on my WFH desk - I think I just realised I like brass.
