- JINHAO 35 Series Fountain Pen (Matte Black, Fine Nib 0.5mm)

Once you write with this pen, it is difficult to like any other pen. I recently bought a Kaweco which is 5 times costlier than this, but if I would have known this pen by then, I would not have bought the Kaweco. Because this pen is just amazing. Flow of ink is sufficient and not too much to leave a smudge. I got one with a fine nib and it really is fine. The pen has a balanced weight because of its metal body, but never feels too heavy on hand for longer writing sessions. It does come with the converter so worry free filling of ink unlike the costlier German versions where we need to get the converted separately. Writing is smooth, doesn't need any pressure on the nib. Makes the writing more effortless. Within this price this aesthetics, nib, flow of ink and over all quality is just perfect. If you are planning, please go ahead with this, there is no regret absolutely.

Arrived on time. Quality of the make is good. There's some issue with the flow of the ink. On day one there's stop in ink flow three times. It writes smoothly otherwise. Overall the quality and smoothness is better than parker, which I used previously

I really wanted to like this fountain pen—the design is sleek and looks great on my desk. It feels decent in hand at first, though after writing for a few minutes, I noticed finger fatigue setting in. It’s not terrible, but it’s not comfortable for extended use. Now, the real issue: the nib is terrible. It dries out incredibly quickly, sometimes mid-sentence. I constantly have to flick or shake the pen to get the ink flowing again, which is incredibly frustrating. Writing should be smooth and effortless, not a battle with your pen every few words. Nothing kills the joy of using a fountain pen faster than a nib that just won’t cooperate. For the price, I expected something reliable and enjoyable—not a constant hassle. My advice? Save yourself the trouble. Skip this one and just get a basic Parker. You’ll spend the same amount, but you’ll actually want to use it.

It is very smooth from it u can write for too long it takes little pressure to write it has fine nip so u can write on small area also it is all in black colour so it looks classic.

Awesome smooth pen Just use a right dark ink and u will love it

Nib and converter is good. The body side comes off when trying to open the pen cap. Hence 3 out of 5 stars, they should have put in threads to lock the body, not allow it to come off when you want just the cap to come off. Writes very well and good for etch marking. So I will use it as my sketch tool. Have better pens from JinHao (20, x159)

Good quality pen at decent price. It has smooth flow and reasonably good nib. Purchasing for the second time as earlier one got lost. Although, the black skin (paint) wear off; flow gets slower when writing fast giving faded ink.

Very good quality and write.
