Jinhao x159 experiences (lemm.ee)

Hi! Just ordered a couple of Jinhao x159 for me and my wife. Hopefully they will be delivered next week 🤞

Anyone got experience with these pens?

I have an 159 but not an x159 - so I understand that this is now acrylic instead of metal? I'd be interested to hear your review!

My 159 works really well and is a good pen, but I barely use it because of the weight. I like to post my pens but that's really infeasible balance-wise with the 159's all metal construction. Looks like the x159 is substantially lighter but also marginally shorter when posted.

Post pics and thoughts when you get them??

I will try to remember that! I'm pretty excited to see what a 12 eur pen can do 😎
