Hi! Just ordered a couple of Jinhao x159 for me and my wife. Hopefully they will be delivered next week 🤞

Anyone got experience with these pens?

    I’ve got two! I love how chonky the pen is. It writes quite well out of the box. It just felt a bit dry for me, but I love wet pens so that’s probably a me thing. I just tuned the nib to write wetter.

    People say it’s a copy of the MB 149. I’ve never tried a Montblanc, since it’s out of my price range, but I’m quite glad to have a cheaper alternative because the thickness of the Jinhao x159 is perfect for my death grip haha.

      I have a 159 and the x159. I’ve also held a montblanc 149. 😂 I would say it is a copy, but obviously the nib is no where near the same. It is still a good and fun pen to write with. I hope you enjoy it!
