5.0 out of 5 stars Superb - Great Pen & Great Price!

S. · 12 July 2025

I have to say, I absolutely love this fountain pen. It's very pretty - the listing images, do this pen little justice. It's a rather high-quality item, for a reasonable price. The crystals on the 'pull-off & click-on' cap, sparkle beautifully. I love the purple colour & the frost-effect finish of the pen's body - it's textured, but, not rough at all - it's very tactile, along with its shiny & very smooth gold-tone hardware. The all-metal construction, further adds to the premium-feel by way of the weight (yet, it's not too heavy) - it suggests longevity/ durability - with respectful, proper treatment, it feels as if, it will last a lifetime. The metal nib units, have a lovely brushed texture/ finish. It is very easy & comfortable to write with.I thought it only came with one nib, but, not only have I found two supplied, they each come with their own ink cartridge converter, as well as a sturdy plastic cap for the nib that's not in use. Both converters work with a slide mechanism, not a twist, and there are little springs inside them - I imagine this is an assistive addition for inks that are thicker, or inks that separate when sat motionless for too long - in giving the pen a bit of a shake before use, the springs will help with loosening &/ or re-mixing the pigment? One nib is the 'Fine' width, as expected - the other, is a 'bent nib', for calligraphy work. That, along with everything else, has me as pleased as Punch with this purchase. To boot, I got it on a Prime Day Deal. Happy days :0)This would make a wonderful gift - I'd certainly be thrilled to receive it. The presentation, perfectly rounds off that premium-feel - even the presentation box is boxed! The outer box is quite thin card, but the presentation box is thick & rigid, neatly-finished, too, with a black, velvet-topped foam insert - it will perfectly-protect it, in storage, or, in transit. The metallic branding/ logo is very nicely-done and utterly inoffensive. My only issue with any of it, at all - the clip on the lid of this pen is incredibly stiff. I don't tend to use them, anyway, but, for someone that does, it will need to be borne in mind, it'll probably wreck fingers/ fingernails, and clothing, or a pencil case loop, when battling with it in use, if you're not super-careful. I don't know what effect repeatedly brutalising the clip will have, on the finish of the body of the pen, either?The cartridges supplied are black ink; I only received eight, not the ten that is advertised. I noticed it is incredibly quick-drying ink, it flows smoothly, too, with great colour saturation - it's a bold, not remotely washed-out black ink. The cartridges are 5cm/ 2 inches long & skinny. At first glance, I thought "oh no, these nibs won't take standard cartridges", but, I was wrong - I save up my used cartridges, so I can have them recycled - I used an empty one, it clicked into it perfectly. I'm waiting on some Diamine cartridges in purple - I like to use different colour inks, and will always use a pen that is the same colour as the ink inside. I'll edit this review, if I find these nibs won't take Diamine cartridges - or, indeed, if any other issue arises.My go-to brand is Jinhao - I'm a big fan of their pens and have used them for a good few years now. I'd like to see what other models of this BOCIYER brand are available - if the quality of this pen is anything to go by, I know I'll be pleased with whatever new model I choose. I'm actually waiting on the roller-ball version of this model to arrive, I'll then have a matching set. I reckon it'll be pretty tough to find purple roller-ball refills for it, but, I'll give it my best shot. Whether for yourself, or, for someone else, I recommend this pen - most highly.

Why did you choose this product over others?:First of all the price. Value for money. My wife has always wanted one. She’s an RN. So thought I try this instead of expensive to begin with. She loves it. Goes everywhere with her. Good pen. Writes beautifully and looks expensive. Great buy.

I have wanted a fountain pen for ages. So decided to treat myself. It’s a great colour and has extra ink cartridges and spare nib. It also, most importantly writes really well.
