What Chinese Pens Are You Using Today?

Today's couleur du jour was green:

Jinhao 159 Green, Medium (stock nib) with Thornton's Green.

My Leedemore bamboo pen. Filled with Noodlers Bay State Blue ink. I believe "Leedemore" is just a marketing name but don't know who the actual maker is. Maybe others more knowledgeable about Chinese pens can offer a theory?

Baoer 517 in orange - it is a tiny bit too much M and relatively wet for a Baoer.

Yes, you absolutely need the red. I have all the colors and usually have at least two in use daily.

Today I am using a sturdy Jinhao 159 black with gold trims. It's a very nice writer, with a smooth and juicy medium nib.

 

An overall good pen for the money.

 

Regards.

I have 2 black with chrome trim. I'll soon get one with the gold-plated furniture. They look nice too.

Still fiddling with the LingMo Lorelei - F. Nib. Did a bit of smoothing, and now the nib writes more like I would prefer. I like the color - reminds me of amber. Like the Hero 616, it is a lightweight pen, though the Lorelei has a wider diameter. My 616 nib writes more like a medium, and the Lorelei writes a fine. Filing system: Aerometric. Have used it the past few days to write some conference notes and to work on a word puzzle (as well as working with my HuaHong Oyster)

That yellow LingMo is very attractive. Wonder how it will hold up. It's shape looks a lot like that of the Jinhao 992 (I guess they're both an hommage to the Sailor Procolor). I suppose LingMo belongs to Jinhao (?).

I do not believe that LingMo belongs to Jinhao. Over the next couple of months I plan on putting the Lorelei to work to see just how well it will hold up. There is another review on the Loreli you might find interesting:

I like the looks of your Hero 6155! It that a fine or medium nib? Where did you locate this one?
