I went to Daiso with my friend a few days ago and bought this strange fountain pen that looks like a copy of the Scribe Sword fountain pen except instead of the silver the barrel and cap are a grey that is metallic-ish and glittery. It is like the other Daiso fountain pens(the grey one) that is sold at Goulet pens. It is branded Rosso Bianco which I googled and found that the Rosso Bianco fountain pens (not my model) were rebranded Jinhaos. Can you help finding the origin of both mine and the Scribe sword. By the way, my fountain pen from daiso was 5 bucks but the Scribe Sword fountain pen was around 34 bucks on amazon (yay).

I sanded mine down so that the metal shows. on the cap rings, I sanded off a layer of stainless steel to reveal a copper layer and after filing that, there is a brass layer. when will this metal layer thing end?!?!

Probably there. A good plating job often has intermediate layers between the base metal and the final plating metal for compatibility. In fact, it sounds like the maker did a better job than Waterman often does.

I reviewed a Daiso Rosso Bianco for ¥500 about three or four weeks ago on the review forum, which was basically a Jinhao x750. Is that not it?

It is branded Rosso Bianco except it looks like a scribe sword fountain pen (search it up).

I think it is a rebranded Baoer 3035 pen.

Really? They do those too? Mine (branded Rosso Bianco as I said), which is the only remotely similar one in the Japanese Daiso, is definitely a Jinhao x750, not the Baoer 3035 or Scribe Sword.

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..

      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
