This might sound stupid but I really like mechanical pencils. Does anyone have any good pencils to recommend? I don't care about the price.

If you want a refillable one, I love the Pilot Dr. Grip pencils. The one I'm currently using, I've had for almost 10 years. They're very durable and the built-in gel grip prevents writer's cramp.

Not stupid at all, my little brother is obsessed too so I happen to know something about this lol. If you want top-tier, try the Uni Kuru Toga (rotating lead for even wear) or the Pentel GraphGear 1000 (amazing grip and weight). OR if you’re into luxury, the rOtring 600 is a beast. What’s your current go-to?

I didn't answer your question but I am currently just using the Pentel Twist-Erase 0.7

These are the pencils I have used since middle school and I will stand by them haha. They really are the best ones in my opinion.

Pentel twist erase. Deloitte used to have these; then I switched firms and they do not splurge on office supplies. I miss that perk.

Edit: use the advanced models for latin writing. The standard pencils are designed primarily for japanese writing
