A plain pen can still feel good to use

I don't need a pen to have a long list of features to enjoy it. The way the barrel feels in my hand and how the ink goes down can be enough to make a simple everyday pen worth choosing, especially when I'm trying to keep stationery spending reasonable.

A full page is a better test than the first few lines. New-pen novelty can carry you for a bit; if it still feels good halfway down, that's the useful part.
