Very nice pen. Do you know the ink capacity? I have the Hong Dian D1 which appears similar in size but certainly different in decoration. It has about 1.7ml capacity. It appears that the nib is somewhat "soft", not the usual stiff as a nail nib that is usually found on these pens. Would it worth getting this pen? If the section was not as slippery, perhaps as my fingers can get oily. Thanks for the review. Looking forward to future pens.
I'm measuring the ink capacity at about 1.9ml, but bear in mind I have adjusted the piston mechanism and its possible in the stock position it holds a little less. The nib is not overly stiff like many inexpensive pens, but I find the Wing Sung 630 a much softer steel nib. The section is a bit slick, and I could see people with oily fingers finding issue with it. I wish they would have put ribs on the section or consider doing a matte-finish.
The video was very well done.
Thank you!

@@ForTheLoveOfPens The Hong Dian D1 is a soft nib too.
I always try to increase the ink capacity on all of the pens. Some work , some do not.
Good to know, I haven’t personally tried a D1
I want to think that the ribs in the cap mimic a cross walk.
Never thought of that, but I see it!
