BEST FEATURE: THE JINHAO 100 FUDE NIB IS THE MOST AFFORDABLE CHOICE FOR USING SPECIALTY SHIMMER SHEENING PEARLING INKS!!! This pen WILL showcase beautiful inks SPECTACULARLY as long as you're using fountain pen quality paper along with the pen after you've filled it with your glittery multi-colored high sheen pearlescent inks that you'd NOT want to waste using in a pen that won't perform or showcase these inks well. So it's crucial to use the pen with Rhodia, Tomoe River, Clairfontaine, or Japanese Maruman paper/notebooks that are designed for fountain pens & high quality sheen/shimmer/pearling inks. The coating on these papers showcase what the inks can do without any feathering of the ink while writing/drawing. The pen performs like silk on them, & these papers GSM (thickness) ensures the ink won't ghost or bleed through to the back side or next page. Nor will it soak up alot of your ink & waste it. See my video review & pictures of the Fude pen in action with specialty ink on specialty paper. I'm using Japanese Maruman paper along with specialty ink from the Wearingeul Yun Dong Ju Literature series collection. The ink is titled "A Star Spattered Hill". It has high sheen with 3 color gradients in yellow, orange, & gold, & it has gold shimmer added that sparkles beautifully. It's a $25 ink, 30ml bottle. J. Herbin (amoung other brands) also makes amazing specialty inks this Fude pen would showcase beautifully. The pen is an affordable option to showcase all high end inks perfectly, & the fude nib won't use too much ink. It won't give too much saturation on the page. Since these inks are more expensive, you don't want to waste them with too high of ink output from the pen either, which can also blob ink on the page & ruin your writing. This pen has not blobbed ink after 2 months regular usage to test it out/review. Flex nibs are more prone to that, which is why a Fude nib is a great option. The pen started immediately upon initial use after filling it. No issues getting the ink flow into the feed & nib. The pens screw cap closes securely (with no air holes) when pen is not in use. So, it won't dry out the ink inside between uses. No hard starts with glitter fountain pen ink inside the converter & feed either!! With specialty inks, after the pen has sat awhile unused, you want to gently tilt the pen up & down 10x or so before writing in order to mix the inks colors, sheening additive, & glitter evenly before you begin writing again. Don't shake it vigorously though or you risk spilling the ink into the cap. You want to do the same with your ink bottle before filling the pens converter with the ink. The Fude nib will show what the pen can do Calligraphy wise with writing styles that use a broad to thin line variation without a sharp edge. (Like modern & bounce lettering calligraphy styles). Other pens with smaller nibs don't put enough ink down to show what these inks are made to do. And on smaller nibs, the glitter can clog the feed or tines & become hard to start or cause a pen to skip/railroad while writing. So it's not ideal to use these inks in EF extra fine, F fine, or most M medium nibs. Broad, Stub, & Italic nibs are also a good choice for these kind of inks. They can lay down more ink though as these nibs come in larger sizes. If you're on a budget, Fude is the way to go. But Stub & Italic fountain pen nibs are used for italic or gothic style writing as they make crisp sharper angles/edges. Italic fountain pen nibs have the sharpest edge, while fountain pen stub nibs have a slight rounding of the edges. And like the Fude nib, the way you manipulate the pen will change your nib strokes. The wider the nibs stub, the more ink is laid down & the wider the lines. Fude nibs gives line variation without any sharpness of angles or edges, & is a standard size of line variation. Bounce or faux copperplate calligraphy style is examples a fude nib can do. A Broad nib just gives a consistent wider line that will not change in line or size variation nor give sharp angle/edges. The broader the size, the thicker the line, & the more ink is used. Monoline Calligraphy is a good choice with a broad nib. Be sure to clean/flush the pen now & then when using it with shimmer/sheening inks to ensure optimum performance. I just do this between changing inks. I designate 1 pen for darker inks & another for lighter inks in each nib style. A+++ 5 stars. The Fude nib is a great choice if you're new to exploring fountain pen writing with lovely beautiful inks on quality paper. Or, if you're a seasoned calligrapher or fountain pen user, you will love the way the Jinhao 100 Fude Bent Point Nib pen performs! Smooth buttery writer, no scratching. Lightweight body, pen posts well & won't back weight the pen when posted so no back weight effecting lettering. The posted cap won't fall off interfering with writing either. The cap stays put until you pull it off the back & is a secure fit. Jinhao makes replacement Fude nibs too should you drop the pen on the nib etc. So the pen should last a life time if you take care of it & clean/flush it regularly.

Visually gorgeous pen, and the nib writes smooth. I'm a relative FP beginner, but it feels balanced in my hand. I do not post the cap when I write. I have it inked with a Diamine ink (writers blood), and I'm using the Medium nib, I believe. The ink doesn't skip, and there's no scratchiness - but it does give decent feedback with the paper so I feel like I'm in control of my pen strokes. I've used it on Tomoe River paper, Leuchtturm paper, and Molskine paper - it's incredibly smooth on the Tomoe, and I get the most feedback on Molskine. This is my second Jinhao 100, and I'm very pleased for the price!

I really want to give it 3 stars, but the fact is you "are" getting what you pay for. Jinhao do make good fountain pens "for the money". If you don't mind your cap posting crooked or don't post your cap at all, and you don't buy the models with the "Century" logo, you're getting a decent writing instrument. I bought three of these: One is an orange fine point with gold trim and is excellent. The cap posts straight and securely, and the nib writes smooth, perfect lines. I'm very happy with it. One is the same orange fine point, but with silver trim and the "Century" engraving on the barrel. You can hardly see the engraving, and the cap won't post straight unless I fiddle with it. One is a Yellow extra-fine point, with the engraving on the barrel, again, which you can hardly see. It is supposed to be a vintage yellow color according to the photos. However, the yellow color looks like a banana peel. Moreover, it's somewhat transparent, as I can see the black section inside the cap. The extra fine nib does write smooth enough and makes a good line for those who write small letters. However, when writing, the ink flow doesn't keep up and ends up looking blotchy. As above, the cap won't post straight unless I fiddle with it. So, I like 1 out of 3. I'd also like the black one with the engraving on the barrel, but after already spending $75 on three of these and only liking one, I'm not sure if it's a wise idea. I'd really like a higher quality knock-off of the Parker "Big Red" or any Centennial Duofold, so I wish they'd raise the quality and just charge me more. I'd easily pay $100 for a well-made fake. I own two Parker Duofolds which were $500 each, new 20 years ago, but they're far too nice to leave on my desk at work where they can be stolen. Jinhao makes good affordable fountain pens, I've got others and I usually give them away to friends and coworkers, etc. I'd just like them to create an additional line of quality higher pens in the $80-$100 range. If they can make pens like this for under $25, I can imagine what they can make for $100.

Jinhao Classic, Red Celluloid (aka. Centennial) -this is a nice pen and it was delivered quickly. It is a fairly large pen, similar in length to the Jinhao 159 but it is much lighter and the section is smaller and seems to fit my grip better when compared to the 159. I got the red color which seems a little on the orange side to me but it is a nice color, suitable for business if needed. The pen material feels good in the hand and the gold appointments work well with this color. The pen I received is of high quality in terms of fit and finish. The cap screws off in just under 3 complete rotations; the threads are fine and good quality. It has a very nice two-tone M nib with the Jinhao chariot on it. It appears to either be a #6 nib or comparable to #6. I inked it up with Mont Blanc Blue Black ink and it wrote flawlessly and smoothly without the need for nib adjustment. The line created by the pen is actually more like a Fine, which pleases me, even though is rated as a Medium. The pen came equipped with a Jinhao converter. Overall, I like this pen a lot and at around $21 it represents a good value.

特に問題無し デザインよし 書き心地よし

ベントニブを購入しました。インクフローも良く、気に入りました。 点検の為かブルーのインク付着していたので洗浄してから使用しました（４枚目参照） ふでDEまんねんと比べるとペンポイントがある分引っ掛かりが少ない書き心地。太さは繊細に変えにくいですが、安定した太さが出せる。裏返しても掠れずかける。2mm～0.38mmくらいがかける。

インクコンバーターがついてた！良心的 軸は太め、キャップの直径が14㎜くらいある(クリップは含まず) 軸の真ん中辺りが12.5㎜くらい、一番後ろのお尻のところで11㎜といった感じ 重めで、書き味は硬め 腕が疲れるので、筆記時はキャップをお尻に差さず握っとく運用をする予定 あと普通に中古だった インクを入れ、書いたら、入れたインクとは大分違う色の文字になった 前に他の色のインクが入って洗浄が甘かったんだろうな でも可愛いのでok

Molto più bella dal vivo che in foto, resina luminosa e di ottima qualità. Inoltre scrive molto bene, ottimo rapporto qualità prezzo

アメリカの某万年筆のパクリのようなデザインですがブランドにこだわりがなければOKとのことで購入。軸が樹脂製なので他のJinhao製品と比べ軽く丁度良い重さです。ただしキャップポストをするとバランスが悪くなります。以前購入したMニブのJinhao X450がまあまあの書き心地だったのでEFニブにしてみましたがこれが失敗。個体差かどうかはわかりませんが、中国製の場合は外れを引くこともありとの事実は承知しておいた方が良いです。インクフローが途切れることはないのですが渋いです。色彩雫の冬将軍を使っているせいで目立つのかもしれませんが、書き始めてすぐ線が細く薄くなってしまいます。ペン先にもかなり抵抗感があり長時間の筆記には向きません。 軸の美しさを眺めることだけで良しとします。
