Ottima penna. Qualità e prezzo più che buono.

I just received this and immediately put it to work editing a book manuscript. I'm impressed. Especially when editing on a printout, I write very small, which requires a stiff Fine or Extra Fine nib. The EF nib in this pen met the challenge. It was not scratchy when used on 24# printer paper (which is not the highest quality but does have a pretty smooth surface and doesn't suck up ink), and I was able to write legibly in very small letters (something like 6 or 7 point type). For context, I also own several Pilot pens (a Vanishing Point w/F nib, a Fermo with EF nib, some older model purse pens), a couple of Pelikans, Waterman Carenes, vintage Esterbrooks with posting nibs, vintage Parkers and others. Compared to a Pilot EF gold nib (which is a bit more flexible), the Pilot puts down a slightly wetter line, but by writing more slowly the Majohn came close.Also, important to note, I put the nib section from the Majohn into my Pilot Fermo and it fit perfectly. I haven't had a chance to test it in my Pilot Vanishing Point, but as the Majohn is a direct knockoff of the VP, I suspect it will fit. So, if you have an older Pilot VP with a damaged nib, the Majohn nib could be a replacement (at $30 vs $90).Don't really see any downside to these. They don't have the heft or luxury feel that some of my other pens have, but at this price, holy cow. I'll be buying more of them as daily drivers.

I already have an original Pilot Vanishing Point and a Mahong E2 - I bought this because I wanted to have a pen with a different color and I was also curious about how good this pen is.Right off the bat, this pen is VERY light - the E2 is a heavy pen comparable to the Pilot. The shape of the grip, though, works well with this weight as it does with the other two. The nib is just like the E2 - very fine, just a little scratchy but does not actually dig into the paper. I’m using this pen with Pilot Iroshizuku shin-ryoku ink, and as long as I’m using a good quality paper it writes very well! My E2 is loaded with Noodler’s and will write well on almost anything - any bleeding is a function of the ink, which is to be expected expected.I can see where you need to be careful putting this pen together after filling it with ink. If you’re rough with it, it may break - it’s plastic! But for all that it is very nice to write with in terms of handling and line quality. I have not experienced any skips or drips with it yet, and if it truly is like the E2 I expect I won’t.I love my Pilot but I have to admit - these cheap Chinese pens are actually pretty good as “daily drivers”.

De pen voldoet prima. Het is alleen jammer dat ze voor de verzending gebruik van DHL maken. Ik heb nog nooit zo'n waardeloos bedrijf als DHL meegemaakt.

Liegt super in der Hand. Verarbeitung sehr gut

Stylo agréable dans la main, pratique, à un prix attractif ... Bien pour écrire tous les jours ... Dommage qu'on ne puisse pas l'avoir avec une plume Medium !

That is, a competent -- but not identical -- clone of the Pilot Vanishing Point.I have a genuine Vanishing Point (VP) to compare to, and let's face it: Probably very few people looking at this pen are not potential VP buyers, but don't necessarily feel like paying $160 to try it out. This pen is a complete mechanical copy of the VP with some key differences. The body is plastic (the VP is lacquered brass, or at least the one I have is, which may depend on your chosen color) and slightly thinner in outer diameter. The body of this pen is also faceted, whereas the VP is just round in cross section. And then as you'd expect, it's considerably lighter than the genuine article considering it's got much less metal in it. There are very minor styling differences in the shape of the clip and nose. The nib is definitely not gold or rhodium like the nib on the genuine VP, but whatever it's made out of is not ferromagnetic, so even if it is steel it is at least probably stainless.What I can say is that the writing experience is similar, and carries over the same curious scratchiness that the Pilot pen has, and although the nib feels slightly less flexible on this pen, neither of them are especially flexible or expressive because the nibs are so short. The nib also lacks the visible vent hole of the genuine Pilot but I don't know if this will actually affect anything, given that so many modern pens omit this from the start and they still work just fine.The entire mechanical nib section is dimensionally identical, and the whole kit and kaboodle fits in a Vanishing Point and works (as well as vise versa). So if you've trashed the nib on your genuine pen, it may actually be worth it to buy this thing, swap the nib assembly over, and throw the rest away. In fact, all of the parts are interchangeable, and so similar are these two that you can actually mix and match the sections. If you are feeling particularly cheeky, the threaded tail of this fits the Pilot and actually functions, or vise versa. This despite them being slightly different outer diameters; the inner diameters and threaded coupler are actually the same.All of the above also means that this pen has the same quirks and foibles as the Vanishing Point, since they're designed right in. For instance, it's quite long, and can't be made any shorter. It rests point up in your pocket with the button facing down, which always feels a bit strange, and lot of pen sticks up past the top of the clip. And that clip is permanently affixed at the business end, which needs to be taken into account while you're writing with it and definitely takes some getting used to.This is not actually a premium pen, but in broad strokes it has the looks of a particular premium pen -- you know which one -- and has the advantage of being considerably cheaper while offering the same functionality. The feel in the hand is not as nice, the click is not as refined, and the finish is not as attractive but it's a great alternative if you don't particularly feel like taking your expensive genuine article out into the world to risk it being damaged or stolen.

The pen looks nice and feels well built (even though it is plastic) However, it keeps skipping and I cannot get it to work consistently even when using every day. I have tried cleaning it by soaking and flushing in water, still the same.
