Hero 616 review

[cellmatrix]

Since this thread was revived anyway, I will chime in and say that I recently discovered the hero 616 and rather like it a lot. Its got a nice fine nib, a decent wet flow, and its a smooth writer. This $2 pen is an amazing value, and the writing experience is excellent.

I just ordered 10 of these for $6 on ebay. I look forward to trying something like a Parker 51...and having spares I guess. Can't beat the price and I love the utilitarian vintage look. Already can't wait to try them!

I have a Hero 616 Small , a Hero 616 Jumbo , a Hero 616 Jumbo (golden cap) and a Hero 616-2 (2014) . Do i miss something in Hero 616 family ? Ideas for other pens, in the Hero 616 family !!!!

Get the 616A in those bright young color

Or one of those custom crafted barrel ; I ha two wooden barrel for my 616 small and needless to say it instantly put the pen up a tier or two in the aesthentics and certainly look expensive ; luxury and quite fashionable. The most expensive one I know of is actually a custom crafted solid Titanium version of the 616. Its way overkill shall I say it

This is a good pen, I have been leaving them in public places Johnny Appleseed fashion to promote fountain pen usage.
