- Now Jinhao has joined the party! They've pulled a Majohn and produced a cap-free retractable fountain pen. Unfortunately, it's not an original design, but I still wanted to take a closer look and share my first impressions.

I got the wife a Majohn A2. She really likes it. Doodlebud found the same off center problem with the Jinhao pen he reviewed. Seems like this is a manufacturing flaw.
I've been lucky, as mine is aligned. But for two reviewers (out of two I've seen so far) to have wonky ones tells me Jinhao's QC Dept is dropping the ball.
"Hey, I don't judge it... It happens!" HAHAHAHHAAAAAA: Perfect James!!! 8:53
Nice to see them doing something a little different than their normal offerings.
Got the metallic red and silver version and I love it. It writes just as well as my vanishing point with gold nib. For the price I think the build quality is good. No issues with pen ,loving it so far!
I pulled the trigger on a white one - the quality (to me) feels a little better than the Majohn A1 or A2, though there's not a lot in it. Definitely worth the investment!
Agreed. I don't have the off center nib problem like Doodlebud and JG3. The click of the JinHao 10 is a lot smoother than any of the 3 Majohn A1 pens that I own, too. The nib is as good or better than the Majohn pens. The one place where Majohn is an easy winner is nib dryout. I can get 7+ days of non use out of my Majohn pens but 4 days really pushes it with the JinHao.
Overall, there's room for both. I owned 2 Pilot VPs and was so dissappointed in both that I sold them shortly after purchasing them. For under $30 these pens are great, though.
Yay! Hey James!
Wow, the cut between the pilot and the majohn in the beginning where you are showing the nibs was almost seemless! It confused me at first because you were holding a Pilot which then just became a Majohn. The magic of filmmaking!
Lisboa... yes!
had mine in white and wow is it smooth! maybe a bit too heavy for me but glad i figured that out before going for the pilot. im told the offset nib is to account for holding the pen with index againt the clip, im still a bit lost on how to exactly position my hand writing with it
Doesn’t seem to be available in India yet.
Will certainly get one to add to my “retractable collection”.
Are you planning to get the latest retractable sensation - Nahvalur Eclipse ?
It is a nice pen. I do have the A1 which is a very good pen. I bought it because the A1 has a roll stop version, not a clip. I cannot is the clip version due to the grip I use and interferes with my grip. As you mentioned the lack of a clip less version for the Pilot Vanishing Point is why I chose the A1.
If Jinhao came out with a clipless version, I would get it for sure.
Excellent review, James.
Hopefully Jinhao has their quality control on point, especially as one of there more "expensive" pens. I have 3 Jinhao 80s and one of them never wrote properly, even with tuning. I loved my Majohn A1 until I broke the trap door, it somehow got on the wrong side of the spring that closes it, good luck fixing that.
This looks like another nice intro to the VP style capless, but would have been nice to see something a little different. Navalur has shown you can try something a little different with their Eclipse, even when using VP style innards.
I have 3 Majohn A1 and a Pilot VP with the clip a bit off to the right which works great for me. It's my perfectly imperfect VP.
I have 2 Pilot Vanishing Points and 2 Majohn A1s and I love all 4 equally! No issues.
I got a blue one...not bad.
Thanks for sharing this is new to me. I do like it. 🧡🧡🧡
i have two jin hao 10s and love them . the nib is far superior to themajohns which i have all their capless models. well made as well and worth the money. i paid 12 dollars each. Thank again James.
I'm itching to buy this jinhao but I'll have to wait a little longer. For us Brazilians, this pen costs 29.95 USD because of the import taxes imposed by the current government.
Does this F pen write like the F pen in the Jinhao 100?
I have two A1s, and switched the nibs as soon as I could. My Jinhao 10 has a much better nib, but I don't like Fines generally, so it will be changed in due course.
I just looked online, and the red one is sure pretty! Too bad they don’t come in medium.
Medium would be great. 👍
The A1 its an amazing pen, if this Jinhao cam match it they did a good job in my opinion.
WOW James!
I'm #1 and you are too brother.
Yep, I'm still here bud 🙏💕
That was quick!
Can you review pilot vs/capless with special alloy nib?
A link to that review is in the description. 👍🏼
price?
I paid $20.
@@JG3Reviews Thanks
I just wish like the pilot that you don't have the stupid clip !! It's so awkward
Pen UA-camrs should really stop validating Chinese companies that steal designs from other more reputable pen makers.
No, this isn't a "version" of the Capless. Its a ripoff.
It isn't a rip off. The Capless design is out of copyright.
Whether we like it or not, and I made clear in the intro I was disappointed they didn’t do something original, the patent is expired on the VP.
