Question
In filling out a checking account transaction ledger, I require a very fine lined pen that will withstand writing pressure without breaking down. Do you have a solution?  Thank you.

Answer
The selection of writing instruments at Office Depot or OfficeMaxx is extensive. I'm sure you'll be able to find what you need there.

I have Pilot Rolling Ball extra fine that seems likely to work. I don't use it for checkbooks, but I do have a pretty heavy hand. They hold up so far.

Hope this helps.
