Stationery Review 246 - 3 Reasons Why Leather Pen Cases are a Game Changer for Everyday Carry

Hi Friends,

I bought this Everyday Carry leather pen case, which also includes a notepad and space for an iPad or MacBook, neither of which I currently own. The leather is really nice to touch and feel. 28 pens can easily fit the elastic loops, and the elastic is free flowing, meaning if one pen is small and the other big, then the loops can be increased or decreased manually to fit the pens. Check it out!

I really love leather products, and over the years, I have got many of them in my stationery collection. This is one of the best ones I have had in a while. I have seen a similar kind of leather journal that's available at Sandton Stationery & Print Shop inside Sandton City mall. The journal we are talking about is specifically made for the shop by their own vendor, who creates these kinds of leather journals.

Stationery Review 245 - STOP Using Cheap Pens! Jinhao10 Marble Burgundy Fountain Pen Review

Hi Friends,

I bought this fountain pen in Marble Burgundy colour out of 32 different variants available at Amazon.com. The same is also available in 24 variants at Writespoke, with a price range from ZAR 600 to 700. Get them if you like them, but it's a beautiful pen. Check them out! 

Stationery Review 245 - STOP Using Cheap Pens! Jinhao10 Marble Burgundy Fountain Pen Review

This is really a great fountain pen in the retractable series from Jinhao. The quality they made and the design they got inspiration from are amazingly great. This is a much better pen than the Endless Phantom Retractable fountain pen which we also reviewed after paying for the Kickstarter campaign.

Stationery Review 244 - Hongdian 100 Silver Steel Piston Fountain Pen (USD25)

Hi Friends,

Hongdian 100 Silver Steel Piston Fountain Pen in Fine Nib. I bought from Amazon.com in the USA. I got the same for around USD 25, and now the price is around $30 for the same. This is a piston-filled fountain pen with an ink window. It's really cool to see the ink flowing up and down inside the barrel of the pen. The nib is a little longer than the normal ones, so it looks great as well. Check it out!

This is one of the most beautiful designs that's available in the metal body design at such a price range. I have not seen much more beautiful pen like this one. Really great to have one in your arsenal of pens.

Stationery Review 243 - Kaco Gel Pen (0.5mm)

Hi Friends,

I got the Kaco Gel Pen with a 0.5 mm refill, and it writes beautifully. This pen came in the goodies bag of the Oppo Reno launch event long back. 

Stationery Review 243 - Kaco Gel Pen (0.5mm)

This is almost the same as the Rotring pen design, which Kaco got inspiration from is what my feeling is. Check it out, and it's available at AliExpress and some pen online retailers in the USA and the UK.

Stationery Review 242 - Senator Germany Ball Pen (INR 200)

Hi Friends,

I bought this Senator Germany Ball Pen from an online retailer named Shopclues, as they used to have deals daily. After a gap of 12 years or so, the pen is still working means something and tells that the German ink is great.

Senator Ball Pens are generally used by brands for merchandise giveaways in India. I have not seen it yet in South Africa, but I may be wrong as well.

Stationery Review 241 - Hongdian Black Forest Fountain Pen (EF) USD 15

Hi Friends,

The Hongdian Black Forest Fountain Pen looked amazing when I ordered it from the Amazon USA website for around USD 15. The pen writes beautifully in its EF nib. Currently, it's available in 12 different variants on the Amazon website with prices starting from USD 15 to USD 19 max. Check it out!

If you like a solid metal pen with all black trims, then this is the one you can definitely opt for. It's similar to the Jinhao 92 Black Metal, which is much bolder and a little heavier than this one. If you like weight in your hands, then you can also check that one on our channel.

Stationery Review 240 - Parker 95 Fountain Pen, Ball Pen and Pencil Set

Hi Friends,

I bought this Parker 95 Pen set from Facebook Marketplace. This is one of the best pen sets I have from Parker. This is no longer in production, so it has some vintage value. I bought the same to bring it to you for your viewing purposes. Check them out!

Stationery Review 240 - Parker 95 Fountain Pen, Ball Pen and Pencil Set

The best part about these pens is their clip, and that's how it feels like it's made of mirror. The pens write beautifully with their unique design in a brushed metal body made of stainless steel. The best part about the pens is that they can be handed over to your future generations as well.

Stationery Review 239 - Jinhao 92 Fountain Pen Black (USD 15)

Hi Friends,

Introducing the Jinhao 92 Star Series of Fountain Pens. This is available in 4 variants at Amazon.com, and we bought the same, including taxes, for around USD 15 (ZAR 300). The same was also available at WriteSpoke earlier, but now the stock is finished as I can't see it available on their online store. 

What a beautiful pen this is, solid build, writes smoothly, really heavy but balanced in your hands when unposted. This is awesome. Check it out! If you like the Extra Fine writing, this is the best EF nib I have seen so far from the Jinhao fountain pens I own. The nib is also plated in black colour and that's a first for me as well. 

Stationery Review 239 - Jinhao 92 Fountain Pen Black (USD 15)

Jinaho 92 Black is around 40 grams in weight, and the Cap is 14 grams. When you fill the ink, the weight increases to 42-43 grams and an unposted pen with ink is around 28 grams. The weight of the cap is more than most of the pens that come in acrylic or plastic designs.

Stationery Review 238 - Parker 25 Fountain Pen (Steel)

Hi Friends, 

Parker 25 Stainless Steel Fountain Pen comes with a steel medium nib and a silicon ink converter. This one has been out of the market since 1989, and it has just been replaced by the Parker Vector fountain pen, now in the modern world. As I was writing with the same, I could feel that it's just a similar writing experience to my Parker Vector fountain pens. The nib design is also similar as it's curved on the end where they are joined with the feed. 

Stationery Review 238 - Parker 25 Fountain Pen (Steel)

Moonman, a brand from China, also released its own version of this body design called Moonman B25 Model in the fountain pen range. The same is available at WriteSpoke in Johannesburg, South Africa, for around ZAR 350 each, and the ballpoint version is for ZAR 300 only.
