Jinhao may not be the most expensive pen in the starter pen class, bu I have found them to be rather reliable in writing and most come in the Chinese/Japanese fine nib which closely relates to most European extra-fine. I have several Jinhao pens and love the quality of them.

My shark pen collection has been sitting unused for a little while and I'm not sure why! However, I inked an orange one up while watching this video :p Put a mix of Noodler's Firefly and Dragon's Napalm in it, the match is perfect. The only thing I'm not a fan of is that the flow is a tad inconsistent for me no matter how much I clean the pen. It's something I notice a lot because I write pages upon pages of text, pretty quickly, and in preferably wetter nibs, but that probably won't be an issue for most people.

Hi brain, I recently purchased a pilot metropolitan and a noodlers Konrad but I’ve found that I prefer the metropolitan to write with much more than the way more expensive Konrad. This isn’t what I was expecting. What are some pens in the 50-100 dollar range that feel more like a metropolitan? I have the fine nib for the metropolitan and it’s very smooth to write with whereas the Konrad feels cheap and scratchy. I also much preferred the weight of the weight and feel of the metropolitan in my hand.
@Gouletpens
5 жыл бұрын
Are you using the flex nib on the Konrad? They aren't quite the quality of Pilot nibs, meant more for experiencing the flex. That said, TWSBI could be a good option because I find the nib to be pretty similar. If you like the metal body of the Metropolitan, the Traveler's Brass pen could work: www.gouletpens.com/products/travelers-company-brass-fountain-pen?variant=12020964327467 - Colin
