The first time I ordered this pen, the AliExpress vendor sent it loosely wrapped in a paper envelope, so someone just used the pointy end of the pen itself to poke a hole and remove it before the envelope was delivered—or so I infer. Full refund and I reordered the pen elsewhere at a slightly lower price. It arrived yesterday and I do like the sculptural shape and interesting texture. I wrote about it on Reddit so I won’t go on here except to mention that the small Banju branded nib (EF) was surprisingly smooth and gives that little bit of bounce, something short of semi-flex but providing a pleasant feel and a tiny bit of flare, depending on pressure. Major con is the smooth under-sized section, although gripping it at the thread didn’t bother me for the short while I have tested it. It also comes in textured green, a smooth matte silver, and smooth matte black. (Credit my dog’s blanket for background in photos 2-4 lol)

Pens From N9 And A Company Called Ban-Ju
basterma posted a topic in China, Korea and Others (Far East, Asia)
Here are some links from WeChat about pens from two companies off the beaten track for many. These posts appeared today along with others from Lamy and Online Pens in the build up to the 11/11 shopping festival. I have bought pens from both companies and I have inked the N9 pens, but not the Banju Shark. https://mp.weixin.qq.com/s/5PH8nDD9qhWpExRsceNBXQ https://mp.weixin.qq.com/s/rQXB0a0rn26ATcYCEx7LpA
