Open Nib Wing Sung 601A with 18K gold nib?
donnweinberg posted a topic in China, Korea and Others (Far East, Asia)
Maybe someone can provide some clarity here. A seller (Eleconline) from China on eBay is selling what is referred to as "Wing Sung 601A, Brushed Resin Fountain Pen, EF/F/M, 18k Gold Nib Writing," for $159.79, but a bit less per pen if one purchases more than one. Below are two photos from that pen...

WING SUNG FOUNTAIN PEN MODEL IDENTIFICATION
samba posted a topic in China, Korea and Others (Far East, Asia)
Hi All, I have 2 vintage Wing Sung fountain pens in my collection (photos attached). They are a smooth writer and in excellent shape. But there is no model number engraved on the cap lips. I know one of these models is the Wing Sung 612 (the golden cap, teal blue barrel pen), but in my pen the...

Dan Carmell posted a topic in China, Korea and Others (Far East, Asia)
My favorite vendor alerted me to a new pen offered today, the 632. It’s an ebonite piston-filler with a #8 18K nib. Offered in gold or white-plated trim, the white-plated pens sport an 18K nib, also plated in a white precious metal, a first for this series. Nibs are offered in EF, F, M, an...

Hello, I have been a long-time follower here, but this is going to be my first post. So, I would appreciate your comments and suggestions. Recently Wing Sung came up with 3013, a new vacuum filler pen. I purchased mine from Bobby’s store on AliExpress. First, I want to thank Bobby for his good qua...

I received this pen earlier this week and really like it, although I haven’t inked it yet. But there’s good and bad news about the cap. The good news is that’s it’s quite beautiful. The engraving is very good and the gp clip lines up properly with the pattern, which is one of my favorite patterns. A...

From the album: Size and shape comparisons
I didn't have a loose PenBBS nib handy at the time the photo was taken, but eyeballing one inside a transparent nib housing, its length is in-between that of the HongDian and the Moonman.© A Smug Dill

I dropped my Metro and bent the nib. I have heard I could replace it with a Wing Sung 698 nib and should use an F. There appear to be soft and hard. Will either work? I don’t like the idea of buying another pen just to use for parts if I can just replace the parts.

Battle Of The Wing Sung Piston Fillers
DasKaltblut posted a topic in China, Korea and Others (Far East, Asia)
I realized today that I have a decent collection of Wing Sung piston fillers (698 gold, medium, fine, 3008 fine and 618 fine) and decided to compare them side by side and in writing. A few observations: the gold nib 698 is quite scratchy compare to the steel nibbed 698s. The rest of the nibs were si... -

During a recent browsing on aliexpress I accidentally found (https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32970462644.html) what looks to be a Wing Sung's version of Lamy Safari clone. This is not a Wing Sung 6359 (which is Al-Star's clone), but a completely plastic pen with a metal clip, and it has some interes...

Exploded view of a fully disassembled Pali 013 / Wing Sung 3013
A Smug Dill posted a gallery image in FPN Image Albums
From the album: Chinese pens
The Pali 013 (shown) is essentially the same as the Wing Sung 3013. It can be fully disassembled as shown for cleaning and tinkering, if the user is so inclined. The nib can be replaced with a Pilot steel nib from a Prera, MR, 78G, Kakuno, Penmanship or Plumix pen.© A Smug Dill

I've been into the hobby for 3 or so years and have amassed a moderate collection of pens. Yet, a single issue continues to bother me and I can't tell if this is just symptomatic of fountain pens in general or if I've simple been buying duds. Without fail, it seems that my pens' ink flow will weaken...

When I first saw this pen on FPN, I thought it looked pretty well. Most demonstrators do when they’re filled with nice ink. The cost of the pen is rather low, so I ordered one. After using it for a while, I’m ready to share my thoughts on it. Brand It’s here that my head starts tu hurt....

I have Wing Sung 590 and I accidentally broken the feed. I glued it and it looked ok, then I filled my pen but get a lot of skipping. So I thought that I blocked channels with glue and I deepen the channel with scalpel, then tried to write. The result was even worse. Then I thought that may be I mad...

Wing Sung Vacuum Filler Pens - Guess At What Price?

Don't know if you guys have noticed this.

Partially Identifyable Older Chinese, Japanese, Korean And Hong Kong Pens
Uther Pendragon posted a topic in China, Korea and Others (Far East, Asia)
Hello All, I need some help from some of our Oriental pen manufacturer gurus. I recently acquired a NOS fountain pen from one of my contacts in China. Unfortunately, sometimes the language barrier gets in the way. I bought a beautiful aerometric fountain pen circa 1997. Its a Chinese/Hong Ko... -
I like Frank Underwater's name for this filling mechanism so that's what I'm using. This has been my go-to pen for about a month now. The Wing Sung 601 is a high-quality writing instrument. I recommend it highly. Having said that, my first impressions were less favorable. This is a pen t...

Three New Chinese Piston Filler Pens
dcwaites posted a topic in China, Korea and Others (Far East, Asia)
This last year saw the arrival on the market of a number of new piston filling fountain pen from mainland China. Two of the pens have the Wing Sung name, the 698 and the 3003, and the third I am going to discuss is the Caliarts Ego. Two others that I know of are by Lanbitou and PenBBS. I now have on... -
latest variant spotting double jewel ( as last version ) but with gold plated appointment and fancy finished gold plated cap, and a new 14K nib

It seems there is no review of this new Chinese pen so I try my best. Wing Sung 6359 is one of the new pens produced by the revived Wing Sung company - its production started in 2017. It is yet another Lamy-inspired Chinese pen and the inspiration by Lamy AL-star was fairly exhaustive in this case...

It appears that there are two major versions of the pen. One appears to have a diaphragm filler like a Parker Vacumatic. Then there's what looks like a short stroke piston-fill variant. Were there problems with the vacumatic filler? I fancied one of the vac-fill 601's. My choice is not assisted by t...
