Jinhao X750

The full set of Jinhao X750 - if you know of any other finish, please let me know (mail or comment)

The full set of Jinhao X750 pens.

Nice pen with a lot of unusual finishes. The typical single pen colors like blue, green, red are missing. If you want e.g. a ferrari-red, you need to look at the X450.
Only silver-trim pens are available, the nib is monotone silver-colored but you can easily exchange it for other nibs. Jinhao bicolor nibs are sold cheaply on Ebay and Aliexpress.

Cap and barrel close with a click. It closes well, so there is a bit of force necessary to reopen it. This might throw some ink into the cap if you open/close it often. Also, it has a tendency to unscrew itself (barrel/feed section).

This is my experimentation pen for other nibs and inks. I especially like the "leather" finish as shown below.

I hope that Jinhao brings out more colors and finishes, I will buy them all.

My Scriptorium Pens

Since 2017, Renee Meeks from Scriptorium Pens is providing me with custom-made pens.  It was always a pleasure to discuss with Renee how the pens should look and I am very grateful to her for her advice and for making such beautiful pens available to me.
