China Pen Monthly Digest

Interesting Pens by Month. Update by the end of each month. 

2014. 07 
exerciting month. Both new launches are worthy talking about. 
7th - almost my grill pen Majohn Ti136
14th - Hongdian third models in 925 silver S24 Yinglong (Silver Dragon)


2024.06
nothing. quite. 

2024.05
I finally bought JunL 629 Steel 

In the end of month, Hongdian flooded the market with new: 
  • C1 in Stainless Steel - behold of another updating is coming! I am quite expecting that. 
  • A9 (ebonite feed + #8 nib + converter) - very interesting pen, kinds of Delta taste pen, but at super 
  • D5S (Qin with converter)
  • two new wood with new coating in 1845
Also the Asvine V200 is released in China starting at RMB 200 (USD 28), one month after it was first released to overseas buyers starting at USD 57. I found this pen too regular in 2024: regular feed, regular steel nib, regular vacuum. BUT, the durability of acrylic + titanium connection, is something I would never have faith in. 

For Jinhao, the 9013 and 1935 was launched. 

  • 9013 is baby version of 9016, overall shorter, with a standard 0.7ml converter, same section width of 9016. 

  • 1935, stupid design of guitar, which is the wrong instrument used by Ni Er who this pen is dedicated to, I am doing the article. 
Overall, this month is quiet. 


2024.04
JunL 632  - best of Made in China so far. 

Majohn released the P139, after 6 months of first spy shot. I don't like the pen. check my YT review for details. 


2024.03
Majohn C1 & C4 - not recommended

2024.02
Majohn P138 - Eleganto! But I am still concerning its capacity of 1.2ml is too few as a piston, due to assembly quality. 

Hongdian 1845 - China Knot Soft nib.

2024.01 
Jinhao 9019 & 9016 - 9019 with world biggest convertor, and 9016 features a smaller yet still as large as a regular piston capacity. Wide range of colors with very friendly price.
