Andibro Handcrafted Wooden Fountain PenShort Paragraph (85mm) Pocket Mini Travel Fountain Pen Fancy Pens with 15 Pcs 2.6mm Black Ink Cartridges for Journaling Office School Supplies (Brown)

This little fountain pen is so impressive for the price. For 8 dollars I really didn't know what to expect but the reviews were fairly positive so I decided to take a chance and I was really taken by surprise. The pen showed up with everything in the picture. There were 10 replacement cartridges and also another inside the pen when you open it. The ink cartridge was easy to install. It didn't write immediately so I shook the pen a couple times a little too hard and splattered ink all over the wall so don't do that. Gentle tap was probably enough. Even after that mishap on my part, it wrote without pouring out onto the paper. It makes cute little paper to metal scraping noise when you write. Doesn't catch and dispenses ink fairly evenly. The ink doesn't dry immediately but takes good 10 seconds or so and is completely dry. The pen is the size of a finger and super portable. It does have a little weight to it and with the cap screwed onto the back, fits my hand just enough so that i can use it. I have to wonder about people eith bigger hands though.. the metal bits as well as the wood feels pretty sturdy as well. I had it in my bag all day and it didn't leak. I also left it tip down overnight and it didn't leak. Maybe because my expectation was so low but im almost proud of this little thing. If you're looking for something easy that you can just grab and use with your scheduler or journal but don't want to be concerned about it being knocked around or getting lost, this is the one. Update a couple of weeks later-: Ok. Noticing that the nib constantly has smudges on the front side. I no longer feel safe that this will not leak in my pocket becasue of this. Another minor thing to note is that the spiral screw etching for the cap is right where you would grip the pen and since this is made out of metal, it hurts after a while because its sharp. Id say for the quality pay 3-5 dollars more and get a jinhao. Those have far superior writing experience for a few more bucks although it won't be as small.

Incredible value for the price! This pen writes well, looks great, is high quality (the brass is solid, not plated pot metal), and doesn't leak-- what's not to love? It's not the most comfortable fountain pen I've ever written with, but still beats a ballpoint all hollow. And the size is PERFECT for EDC in my pocket. (Yes, even the pockets of women's jeans can fit this pen, believe it or not!) The included ink feathers a bit more than the bottled ink I already had on hand, so I just picked up a cheap syringe and now I use it to refill a cartridge.

With the first ink cartridge I had to twist to pucture. That may have caused it to leak. Second try I Plug it straight into pipe tip, maybe it seals cartridge hole if not twisted on. Not leaking now. Nice little pen!

I loved this pen so much that I immediately purchased six more! I'm one of those people who worries about a great product disappearing forever, so I made sure to stock up just in case. This is a fantastic everyday carry fountain pen. The strong, solid metal cap gives it a durable feel, and I love how the pen unscrews open and then screws onto the back, extending into a full-length, well-balanced writing tool. The combination of brass and wood grain makes it look stunning, and it writes just as beautifully as it looks. If you're looking for a high-quality, great ink flow, easy to use, pocket-friendly fountain pen that’s built to last, look no further! I highly recommend this to anyone—whether you're new to fountain pens or a longtime enthusiast, this one is worth every penny.

I would have expected to pay this price for just the fountain pen cartridges. Given that, I had expected the included pen to be trash. It isn't. The pen is made of brass hardware (possibly brass plated), real wood (looks like zebrawood, but not sure), and a two-tone iridium nib. Just the nib would have cost me the price of this entire package. The cap threads on nicely, and the pen has some heft to it--not heavy because it's tiny, but it feels well built. The pen writes smoothly, with just a touch of scratch from the nib. This is pretty insignificant, and does not detract from my writing or enjoyment. The cap posts on the end of the pen, which gives a good weight and balance to it, and a comfortable size for writing. My only "complaint" (for a $6 dollar pen that writes well and is solidly built), is that the feed is a bit stubborn. Ink had to be coaxed through it the first time by gently squeezing the installed cartridge. If the pen is stored vertically for days with the nib pointing up, this needs to be repeated, as the ink apparently runs down the feed and leaves the nib dry. It does NOT drip ink if stored nib-down. Don't get me wrong; this isn't on-par with a "premium" fountain pen costing $100 or more. But it's much closer to this than I'd expect, and I don't know that I would pay the difference. As a gift or a curiosity, or a knockaround pen that you don't have to fret over losing, this pen is absolutely a winner.

It feels decent and writes smoothly for the most part. The major downside is it leaks like a sive. Leaves a huge mess on your hands when you open it due to ink pooling up in it when you are not using it.

Luckily for me I did not need the pen, but one ordering and expecting the complete package might have to deal with this. The ink is perfect. The pen, not so good as it never showed up.

I love this little pocket Fountain Pen. I paid $7.99 for this pen and it comes with 10 extra ink cartridges. I has a fine nib and writes great. Look at the photo I took to see the size compaired to the Hongdian M2 Black Forest Mini Fountain Pen, Long Blade Nib, and my great Cross Fountain Pen that writes with a nice fat juicy medium line.
