660 Piston Filler

The pen came the other day , and I really wanted to play with this pen before some others .

So here we go :

 

660 Piston Filler - I think this is just the Ebay seller giving the pen a description (?) It is an unbranded piston filler .

Piston - Love the piston lock - The piston seems to draw ink really well .

NIB - Is it a .3 something ? Writes moist , cants 45 deg left ok but dries up quickly canting 45 deg right .

Applying pressure to the NIB does not affect ink flow very much . Ink seems to flow well , there was no burping .

For a $3 USD pen I can only say that I am reasonably impressed so far . ( Will it continue to impress )

Back in 24 hours :

Yes, the pen is a great value for money! I ordered two at $1.60 @ USD and am very pleased.

Mine has a Jinhao 599 clip but overall the same. The plastic is extremely brittle, but the nib and feed unit are decent for the price.

The clip kinda looks like on the first Caliarts Ego.

I think the pen is sold by several vendors under different descriptions ..

And to set them apart they use different caps / clips .
