I have a nice all black Goulet #6 nib that I like a lot. For the past few years it's been living in a Jinhao 159. The jinhao 159 wasn't that lovely to begin with, and, as expected, the "enamel" is starting to chip off, so I think it's time to find a new home for my nib. I'd like something that's a b...

Hello, I have a question that I do not think has been answered yet (at least not that my extensive googling and patrolling of this forum can find). I have a Jinhao 159 that I'm slowly turning into a flex-nibbed pen. I bought a Noodler's #6 flex nib a while ago, and while it DOES fit, albeit with s...

Hi guys! Hope y'all doing well. It was that day again where this 15 year-old teen felt bored writing with a characterless Jinhao 159. So I just pulled out my pen customizing stuff and ground a stub.

Kansas Pen posted a topic in China, Korea and Others (Far East, Asia)
The Tall Dark Stranger turned his horse toward Texas Street as he rode into Abilene Town. He'd signed on as a drover with the cowboys bringing their cattle up to the rail head in Abilene Town, Kansas - The Heartland. It was a hard dusty ride up the famous Chisholm Trail from Wichita. Yet he showed n... -
So, recently I was cycling through pens and gave my 159 another go. It worked for me for the past week but today the ink spilled out of the top of the cap and into my leather case. Luckily, I cleaned it up and wrapped it in a cloth for the rest of the day I was at uni. Anyways, my solution was to pu...

The clip of my Jinhao 159 is a lot more tight-sprung than I'd ideally like it to be. To slip it into my shirt pocket takes a wee effort and while that's still manageable, to take it out therefrom seemingly threatens to rip a tear in the pocket.
