Loved the quick and efficient delivery. At under 300, I feel Gold Leaf 801 stainless steel fine nib is a good entry level pen before going for the big league.This is my second Jinhao product after x51.It doesn't write but glides! Stark contrast to the experience with Parker Vector GT which gives a scratchy feedback. I kind of have got used to it though!Tried out on multiple surfaces and satisfied with the results. Worked without any hitches. The grip section is kind of sandpaper finish which makes it easy to grip the pen. The weight is also just about right for me or may be tad heavy for those used to plastic body pen.Ink convertor is also of good quality. Have used Jinhao (brown) ink.A tad disappointed with the NIB. Thought it would be ultra sharp as it's 0.7 mm but really can't make out much difference from x51 which is a medium nib.Overall experience is satisfactory. Thank you Jinhao for the good product. 🙏

Nice

The design is sleek and attractive. Has some weight but bearable. The flaw it has is, the ink flow is not smooth. I bought it as it was Amazon's choice but it turned out to be a wrong choice. The ball inside the refill tube to break the surface tension of ink was unable to do so. I had to tighten the pump every time a substantial amount of air space was created after some writing. If you are going to buy a fountain pen, buy good one. This is cheap and not up to the mark.EDIT: The ball inside the piston converter is non-metallic, thus not able to successfully break the surface tension of ink, hence bad flow. Parker Vector Stainless Steel GT has a metallic ball inside the converter, but it has medium nib, not fine like Baoer and has too much of a flow. Yet to find a fountain pen with fine smooth nib and apt flow, neither too much nor too less.

My first impressive was that it looks like a copy of Parker Vector.Heavier than my Parker vector, but still well balanced. Nib is medium, not fine and has no scratchy feel to it. Doesn't bleed nor does the ink feathers on paper. Inflow is steady. Metal body but surprisingly not slippery. When writing with it, it feels like an old pen, like you have been writing with it for years.Slim pens are my style so I'm happy with the way it looks. I bought it for 226, which was the exact price I was willing to pay for this.Edit on Feb 18, 2021.After having this pen for a year, I'm disappointed. While the writing is smooth and everything, the black part that connects the nib to the pen's body and cracked at two places, and they leak ink. I haven't dropped the pen even once inthis whole year. It might not be an issue for someone who grips the pen at an inch or two away from the nib, but if you get any closer to the nib, the ink will stain ur fingers.I'm convinced that the pen I got was a fake. A good qlty fake.

This is such a waste. The pen feels and writes ok but what is the point of buying this if it can't be used after 4 or 5 times using it? First of all, the Penn's cap broke and I couldn't close it properly. That was my first disappointment. Second, this Penn's converter is useless. I used Parker Quink ink in this pen and I own 8 fountain pens, with various types of converters and cartridges, nibs etc. This one is the worst fountain pen I ever used in my life. I have a hero pen that I have been using for past 14 years which I bought for 50Rs at that time. This is such a disappointing buy.If you are looking for a cheap but good quality pen for regular writing, try camlin trinity or elegante. Don't waste your money on this one.

The nib is pretty smooth, a bit less than my Baoer 79 Starwalker (it is an absolute beauty). Nib size 'F' doesn't skip at all. The grip might annoy some as it is made of stainless steel it tends to slip added the pen itself it so sleek and lightweight that many of you won't enjoy. But if you have no such condition and you want to have a nice lightweight elegant fountain pen, it serves the purpose well. I am more into heavy weight pen, yet I enjoy writing with this one as well.**The sound of the shut down of the cup is so satisfying.**

The pen is just like wonder!I know its a copy of parker but it even surpassed the quality of the parker pen 😂It just works like wondersSmooth to write wothHas a fine nibTotally worth my money 💰Buy of u wish to !!
