Actually i like the looks of jinhao 156 but i dont prefer medium nibs that it comes with. I am planning to buy pens fron kanwrite. So i was wondering if any of their fine nib or flex nib would fit into it.

 

I think jinhao 156 has #5 nib. Please correct me if i am wrong.

 

Regards.

Just received their #5.5 size nibs in ef. Nibs are more like fine size. But they are pretty smooth. Very nice nibs.

Hi, where did you order the nibs from, and how much did it cost?

Thanks, (or) Hope that helped,

I ordered it with their pens. Nibs were very cheap. You can contact via email which is mentioned in their website kanpurwriters.com

Did you have to buy a box of 100 nibs?

I was wondering if anybody was going to propose buying some and dividing the box between persons who've expressed an interest.

But we'd have to see what sizes we are interested in.

I have encountered the issue with the differing radius of the Kanwrite 35mm x 6.3 mm nib which is so near to being a #6.

Either Kanwrite or Ambitious, whoever does a closer match for a #6, and maybe a 28 x 6 mm to substitute for dodgy Wality nibs.

I think one could order even a single piece. But if you order more courier charge gets divided. Or else you could order some of their pens. Have been using desire and saloon. Both are nice writers. You could order separate nib units also to easily replce nib + feed. In certain pens kanwrite nib won't fit but when inserted with kanwrite feed it fits perfectly.

I have ordered a Desire from Kanwrite and a bunch of different nibs.

I was just there for the nibs but I saw the desire also came in a red/white/blue marble & I had to have it. The colours of our national flag you see.

 

When I have received the parcel from Kanwrite I will post about my findings. I ordered their EF nib and a Flex F as well as the usual F in the 35mm (#6) size.

They also do a nib for the Hero 616. I don't know how you'd open up a 616 to get at the nib.

      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
