What Chinese Pens Are You Using Today? 2018 + 2019


RMN

Recommended Posts

My brown Live In You Future arrived today. I cycled water in and out through the feed several times an d filled it with the included black ink. It wrote right off and is smooth with enough feedback. It’s a Schmidt fine. It sort of looks like a baby Antique Marble Edison Collier. The section is really narrow. So far I can’t find any fit and finish problems. But I’ve only had the pen for 2 hours so I’ve only looked for glaring problems

Wing Sung 765 Steel Flighter ... the economic priced variant of this model , and consequently lighter build, less adored, but also lighter in weight which made it vastly more usable for some. I had Hero 234 Carbon black in it

A Jinhao 911 I got yesterday. My first new pen for nearly a year, so I thought I'd splash out & go for a really high end one - the 911. ;)

 

Hmm. I was hoping it'd be as good as the now unavailable J321 ( https://www.fountainpennetwork.com/forum/topic/141747-jinhao-321-review/?p=1405059 ). I don't think it is. But not too bad. Had to fiddle with the nib & it seems to dry out fast. Just wish it was not a Fine, otherwise it'd be quite nice to use regularly.

 

Regards,

 

Richard.

Hi Richard, Oneill here , I hope that I have mentioned this before but if not,Jinhao /Baoer convertors are not washed out when manufactured so there always is a small quantity of Manufacturers Oil left in them A extra Good Flush is my way of getting them to work I e, Rinse after flushing, with Clean Water.

Gui-Guan 300 Nickel Grey .. EF nib, positive feedback and leaning to the dry side, don't expect any line variation, full metallic construction, my own mix of green ( don't quite recall the actual ink used )

Jinhao x750 as a daily driver, and I also go between Baoer 388 and Jinhao 991. All of their nibs are aligned a bit for my taste (no grinding, I don't have the tools, but smoothing and making wetter with loupe and fingernail trick).

I use a bunch of Chinese pens every day, but a couple of days ago I inked up my Yiren 270 again. Great writer for an EF nib.

Jinhao 159, I like the size of this. Gold and sliver trim ones, smooth and writes amazingly well.

Jinhao x750, fits in the inside pocket of my cut perfectly. Not to big

Shaffer, unknown model but has italic nib to put a nice address on the letter I'll send.

Pilot MR, I prefer the Jinhao over this, it's a touch small....scratchy on a Med Nib as well.....

For work: A Delike Alpha that now has a Jinhao nib (from the J500). Inked with Diamine Majestic Blue.

Today I have a new arrival in the shape of the Wing Sung 601A (a 601 with a wrap around nib) and it is AWSOME :D :thumbup: .

Ink is Diamione Red Dragon.

No pics as camera batteries charging.

Im being using jinhao 992 for about 3 months now and i just really enjoying the smoothness of the nib. I love the design which homage of Sailor 1911, its looks pretty in transparent blue and fancy ring in the cap says "jinhao" and in the barrel that keeps feed have that jinhao's logo. For now, it never had any crack or any issue so i just hope this pen still become one of my daily writer!
