I like both pens. I think if the 365 was made by any other brand and it was sold for £30 it still would be good value. But to be honest they do write similarly.

 

You have written a good round up.

Very nice comparison, and seeing the line width (and smooth writing) makes me more interested in buying the 356. Thanks for posting this comparison.

I just ordered one in the blue color off of Ebay for $5. I look forward to using it and reporting back. Worst case if the pen is no good I can use it for a toothpick.

Nice comparison.

 

A pic of the pens will be a great addition to this review.

I bought my Kaigelu 356 from a Chinese dealer on Ebay for $6 which included shipping. I have had it about a month now. I am well pleased. I have the blue one and I like the color and finish. It is a very smooth writer, actually better then my Hero 704. It is a bit on the thin side but even with my big hand it's okay. The clip is an arrow and it has no detail. I would of liked it to be like the Parker arrow. But those are two very minor points "complaints" This is a great pen for the money. And as already stated by another it would still be a great deal at 5 times the price I paid.
