You're a low gripper with an odd triangular grip, so I can see why a pen with a larger section diameter would be more comfortable for you. Glad you found the X159!

Given your unusual grip I’d strongly suggest trying the new Jinhao 9019. Same big nib as the X159 with an unusually chunky section. It has quickly become one of my favorite pens.

@karlpmueller - Yes re: the 9019 recommendation (its section is about 2mm wider than the X159's!)

If you like the x750 but want a grippier grip, try the x450. It's basically an x750 with a textured grip section.

Just purchased 9x 777 pens for about $AU 11.00 and they’re excellent. But the stars for me are the X750 and X159. The X750 is my go-to but neither requires posting IMHO. The X159 appears to be powder-coated metal as with the X750 and is also a smooth writer, and I love the weight. The size factor is a bonus with my slightly arthritic hands too. I also have a couple of Centennial 100 pens just for the premium look, and one came with the extra-fine nib which is lovely but too fine for me. They are indeed superb and Jinhao has produced some quality products for budget prices. They’re inexpensive enough to collect on a whim from Temu. I will be buying more. 👍🏻

If you like the Jinhao x159, try the Jinhao 82, it is my favourite Jinhao pen

That Jinhao 65 grip is really ingenious.

My biggest gripe with Jinhao pens is practically all their enamel on metal pens (looking at you 159s, X750s & X450s!) have chipped caps under where the clip contacts the enamel. I imagine this is a manufacturing flaw where they cannot be bothered to wait for the enamel to dry/harden properly! I know they're cheap pens but despite this, the quantity I have bought of them, you'd think it would just be the odd issue, but nope, even when I ask retailers to check before they send (Aliexpress) they still send out chipped caps on their pens! I guess neither the Aliexpress retailers nor Jinhao can be bothered to correct this fault! Such a shame as I LOVE the majority of my Jinhaos & the nibs on the 159s, X750s & X450s etc are really smooth & very comfortable to write with plus I love the different finishes they offer! Such a bummer! x

I've been using the jinhao 80 EF for a few months. It's got a 0.38 mm nib. It's so light and writes so much more smoothly than any other similarly nibbed pen I've used. So, I've ordered FIVE 0.3mm J80s. I hope to use them as my EDCs in different colours to write in my Journal/ organiser. I'm shocked how good this pen is; much more practical than any Parker, Schaefer, Scriveiner or even Lamy that I've used, though I really like the Lamy Safari and Al-Star.

I have a Jinhao 80 too! I only have one at the moment (Black, Chrome trim) and so far my experience aligns with yours, the Lamy-style extra fine nib is phenomenal, and unlike my other Jinhao pens, this one just worked the moment I filled it up. One of my favorites in the rotation. How are your other 80s doing? Do they write the same? Are they reliable? Have any of them had QC issues?

I highly highly recommend you try the Jinhao 82. It appears to be a Sailor Pro Gear mimic of sorts.
