And it confirm my thoughts (That the 149 is not a lot longer than the 146 but that the difference is mainly in the girth) and i didn't thought the difference of lenght was so short between the 142 and the 144...

I saw the Jinhao MSG series:

 

(l - r) 159 with beef

 

156 with pork

 

154 with chicken

 

152 with tofu

I didn't want to be a pig about it so I ordered the beef and chicken with wonton soup and steamed rice.

what I would like to see is a line up of:

114, 142, 144, 145, 146 (old) 146 (new), 147 and 149

that would be a complete set, wouldn't it??

Enjoy your pens

Have a nice day

I do not have all of the variations, but this might give you an idea. Left to right: 114, 142, 144, 145, 146 (early 80's), 146 (modern), 147.

When I purchased my 147 Traveler, I was expecting it to be the same size as my newish 146. However, to my surprise, it is noticeably larger in all dimensions, a very nice substantial sized and writing pen. I do note that it was billed as a 'fine', by my knowledgeable seller, but to my eye it closer to a medium. Not complaining, just saying.

Once again I am confirmed in my belief that I do not need a 149, this is big enough. I agree with a previous poster, it would be nice to see a comparison photo of the full family of pens, maybe grouped by era.

 

PS- Looking at orfew's photo, maybe my 146 is a NOS pen from the '80s, not a modern one.

Pens are like watches , once you start a collection, you can hardly go back. And pens like all fine luxury items do improve with time

      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..
    • A Smug Dill
      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
    • adamselene
      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
