Love the looks of that Jinhao 100.  Do not recall seeing that one.  Must have missed it

One of these.  They're Luoshi, and retractible.

 No Helen you do not miss it , its not a Jinhao original , its a store specialty , before Jinhao had their own pattern acrylic variant ( only solid colour back then ) one of the first and that batch AFAIK only count something like 200 units

They dry out too fast in my climate. And not worth the shipping to give them away to somewhere more congenial. Bin.

I don't know how to read Kanji. If anyone whom does can tell me what the pens say I would appriciate it.

If anyone cares, the knife is a Higo no Kami 10.

 I use Yandex to translate text in pictures a bunch. Take a clear photo of the characters on the pen, upload, and it shows you the same image with translation where the characters are.

Today I am trying my Moonman 80 lake blue for the first time. I’ve inked it with Diamine Earl Grey but it feels a little dry on regular notebook paper. It’s great on my glossy planner.

Wasn?t George Harrison who sang I Me Mine? I reckon it is not Chinese and off topic.

It says, 'Don't use me as a knife rest!'   😜

Jinhao 82, but I swapped the nib with a medium/bold #5 nib I've been keeping around (Scrikss, a Turkish fountain pen company). Works nicely.

 

 

I'm also using Majohn T5, but I swapped the nib with a Jinhao #6 nib, because that moonman nib was too dry. Loving the pen as it is now!
