Jinhao 82 are such an addiction, it's so funny and enjoyable all the possible combinations you can do! Either trying to replicate Sailor combos or trying out your owns.It's like Legos all over again. Hope you have all the fun!

I love that you compared it to legos!! This comment made me smile so big :) Thank you so much!!

I absolutely adore this! It’s wonderfully made. It’s refreshing to see someone compare nib sizes across different pens, providing a reference that any fountain pen enthusiast is likely to have. The comparison isn’t limited to just one brand, which is fantastic. This approach really helps me grasp the actual thickness of the nibs. We need more videos like this one. I’m truly grateful, thank you so much.

I have plenty enough expensive fountain pens but I have to say that the Jinhao 82 is awesome to write with. I use it during my homework sessions. Thank you for sharing.

Very nice! I think they would be perfect school pens. Very portable and I wouldn't worry about losing it on accident!

Pilot should take note. Jinhao converters fill right up. With Pilot you can't get more than a half fill no matter how hard you try

Is it thinner than the video's fine nib? Waiting for my EF and hoping I made the right decision 😅

Now I want to try this too & buy a lot of pens 😅😂🙈 But the fine you have looks so very fine! I’ve experienced that my fine pen writes with a broader line but maybe that’s because of which ink I’m using & how hard I press down the pen/nib when I write?

@mydandeliondiaries

7 ай бұрын

I've seen that their nibs may vary by pen. But ink does play into how bold it writes. I find that really "flowy" inks can make fine nibs more medium. For example, every time I use a DeAtramentis ink I get a broader line than when I use a Diamine. Hope that helps!

I have a lot of Jinhao 82s. Some need tuning but most haven't. Their line width is inconsistent. I am not really picky about that as long as ink flows beautifully.

I adore this pen too. I have nearly 40 in almost all the colors they have.🤫 But I do prefer to grind them into architects and a few italics, but mostly architects since it is my favourite grind, and honest to god not one of them wrote good out of the box for me, all were scratchy and dry, but since I know how to fix nibs, that's not a problem for me.

Wow!! That is quite the collection :D I love that you grind your own nibs!! I want to do that someday too :) I saw several reviews of "bad starting" Jinhaos, and feel fortunate that the two I started inking up have been good so far! I do have some shims I may use if I get a bad one out of the bunch. Thank you for sharing!

@@mydandeliondiaries From KZread videos I learned how to fix the nibs and I'm glad I did, because bad nibs were what kept me in the cycle of buying mostly expensive pens, but now, ever since I learned to fix them I haven't bought a single non Chinese pen for the last year, because I prefer to write with the architects I made than with the Montblanc, Visconti, Pelikan, etc that I have. And also I'm planing to do some amateurish raden on some of the 82's. I saw someone on KZread and it looked really interesting.

Oh I haven’t seen the cream coloured one before! Is that one called cream on the website or something else? I just saw that they’ve released Jinhao 82 mini pens too!! Have you seen that/tried one? I bought a 2-pack of Jinhao 82’s a good while back now (can’t remember when 😅), so I got one in EF & one in F & I really like them!

The "latte" colored one is called Milk Tea I think, and the "off white" one was called Ivory! I haven't tried the Mini but they look adorable haha. They are amazing for the price, honestly a great starter pen too.

I have about seven or so of these. The first one i wrote with was a fine and for most of my fines, i am good. This one was too fine for me. I think it is meant to mimic the sailor pro gear fineness. At least i feel like all the writings of the pro gear slims their nibs are very fine

You have a good point! They may have mimicked the nib to go along with the pen body style.

Thanks for the video. I have a Transparent Blue Jinhao 82 winging its way from AliExpress. I got a fine nib (I think) and I'm eager to see if it is as fine as yours.

How fun!! The ink consistency also may have played a part with the "fineness." Some inks are much wetter than others. Diamine is a happy medium for me :)

Mines are too scratchy. It’s the most scratchiest pens I own. 😢

Oh no! If you have a pen shop close to you I would see if they could take a look at them for you. They may have some tools to help repair them if the tines in the nib are misaligned.

I was on the fence about buying a jinhao 82 but after watching your video I i will take the plunge and buy a set being that they are so cheap. I liked your comparison between the nib sizes, I like the extra fine but seeing your comparison would make me buy a fine set and an extra fine set. From the looks of it the Diamine onyx black ink looked like you were writing with gel pen. What paper did you use to write on? It looked pretty smooth when you writing. Was the fine nib scratchy?

@mydandeliondiaries

They are great affordable pens! The paper is Tomoe River (the original). I found the fine nib smooth but not buttery smooth. It was not scratchy!
