        To be fair, I have only inked half of them and I use them as guinea pigs for nib swaps. So I don’t really know :D

        They’re pretty smooth writers out of the box. I used to hate Jinhao because all the pens I got had dud nibs, but they’ve improved vastly in QC. The five Jinhao 82s I got all wrote nicely when I inked them.

      I ordered one since I was curious about the Sailor Pro Gear Slim when it was a lot cheaper. I’ll see how it feels in the hand since so many pens are uncomfortably heavy (Pilot Metropolitan) or wide (TWSBI Eco).

      Replying again after my order arrived. It’s heavy in the hand, but feels good for short scribbles. It’s a good shape for my small hands and four-finger grip. I’ll have to test it for a longer time to be sure, though. Ink capacity with the built-in converter looks very small, so be warned.
