You have missed fountain pens. I found I wrote better when I used one, but it was compulsory at school until I was about 14. At that point, I immediately switched to a ball point pen, mostly to rebel and feel older.
I switched back once I was more mature.
Dip pens were obsoleted in the late 19th century.

Note all the "back to school" offers, and the cheap £4 pen. https://www.whsmith.co.uk/stationery/pens/fountain-pens/sta00028/?p=1 https://www.whsmith.co.uk/stationery/pens/fountain-pens/sta0... (The same might apply in India, in which case there are literally millions of children with fountain pens.)
