Daiso Brushed Steel Fp And Daiso Notebook W/ Red Leatherette Cover, In Pictures

[Bookman]

$5 Fountain Pen and $1.50 Notebook with Red

Leatherette Cover I Bought at Daiso Yesterday

The box

Brushed steel

It comes with a standard international cartridge. Mine had

black ink. I substituted the converter that had

come with my Nemosine Singularity and

filled it with Waterman Bleu Sérénité.

The brand name looks like Rocco Bianco …

… but I believe it's Rosso Bianco

The cap snaps on to close and slides on to post. Both are secure operations. The clip

is a winner. Perfectly-performing, it is hefty yet elegant and understated.

The step between the barrel and the section is minor, but it's there.

The nib looks like a #6 F-M. It's handsome. But it's round—very round. The ink line reminds me of what I

see from a gel pen. I find it rather boring, no offense to Mr. Bianco, wherever he might be. But it

seems to be absolutely dependable. But then again I haven't given it enough time to learn

whether the nib dries out prematurely and how long it takes. But then again,

it only cost $5 and you don't have any wait or shipping cost.

Standard generic plastic feed, of course

The paper's smoothness is somewhere between smoothish and roughish.

Slight feathering with Waterman Bleu Sérénité and a #6 round F-M nib.

Slight show-through, no bleed-through

That's definitely a Jinhao X750 with custom branding and maybe a custom/different nib (not just differently marked).

 

If you should choose, a Jowo or Nemosine nib will be easy to fit.

 

They're great pens!

Believe it or not, I prefer the FPR flex nib. In fact I see another three-pack in my immediate future.

I've yet to try them. I did modify a Konrad nib to fit a Jinhao but I don't think I would really recommend it.

Here's one of my FPR flex nibs on my Jinhao x450.

Nice! Does it have good reliable flow? The Konrad frankenpen does not, at least with the ink I was using.

I've used #6 FPR flex nibs on four different pens: Edison Collier, Conklin Duragraph, Nemosine Singularity, and Jinhao x450, using a generic #6 plastic feed with each one. And I have had no ink-flow problems whatever with any of them.
