Anyone Tried Or Used Jinhao 950 Classic

[Albinoni]

I was looking at this Jinhao pen on Ebay today and quite like it and its going for a steal !!!!, the Jinhao 950 Classic

 

Just wonder if anyone here has ever used one or owned one.

 

Thanks

Umm, yes. Not me I may add, just a bit down the forum listing there's this thread: https://www.fountainpennetwork.com/forum/index.php/topic/260671-jinhao-950-porcelain-horse-dragon/

 

The nib used is the same as on the Jinhao Century Mk2 pen, and I made my Century pen feel really nice. So, from that point of view the pen could be very nice.

 

Regards,

Although I'm a complete fountain pen newbie, I just bought this pen and am enjoying using it very much.I found it for $5.15 on Amazon, and it took about five weeks for it to reach me from China, with free shipping. Amazon offered me faster shipping for $55, but I decided to be patient instead.

This is the noblest!

 

Every now and then I pull the trigger on something that looks Chinese as hell just to be a little ostentatious about the fact that I spent no more than $10 on my extreme noblest fountain pen. I'll have one of these before the Winter is over with, I'm sure.

I had bought this pen earlier for the lure of porcelain barrel. The nib is very smooth medium point. But I felt this is more of a showpiece pen rather than a practical regular use pen. The section is slippery and the pen is quite heavy for comfort use. So it has gone back to the showcase!

I'm missing my Dragon porcelain 950 - but I'd say that it natively was the best writing Chinese pen that I've found yet - certainly the best of the Jinhao line, with the x750 following along. Inked it up in DeAtramentis Atlantic Blue. Great handling pen.

 

The four porcelain models are pretty easy to find and - well, I'm going to replace the lost one with a new Dragon if I don't find it in a couple of weeks. There are other models out there, but they're a lot more difficult to find. Check eBay, AliExpress and Banggood for what you can find and good luck!
